Saints ended their season in round 20 ;-)

No they didn't. ;-) Dragons were hardly convincing last night, they're still light years behind the Top 3. :)
Get use to it sully, the round 20 loss loss to Saints put the Sharks behind the 'top eight ball'... it's been an uphill battle for you guys ever since.

Certainly it didn't help, but with teams like Canberra and Newcastle struggling of late, the loss wasn't exactly catastrophic.

I beg to differ.
Saints knocked the Sharks out of the top eight... and ever since then, they've been on the outside, looking in.
It's a fact.

Funny how a thread is posted regarding cronulla, you people are obviously jealous of our great, surviving club :p . Disappointing effort by the Sharks but at least, at the end of the year we can look back on some great victories. Like that win over the Roosters, the 'benchmark' side you could say. How did the Dragons go against them? Please refresh my memory? :-k :lol: Sharks technically can still make it to, with two wins [-o< . Then we will beat the Roosters (predicted via whatif calculator) and then go on to win the Premiership! Realistically, we wont, but Dragons with the likes of the Bulldogs and Roosters have no chance as well :)

Round 8: Saints 42 - Sharks 12; Round 20: Saints 26 - Sharks 14... knocking Sharks out of the comp.

So where does that put the Sharks?

20, 30 years behind us? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Only a couple of wins. ;-)

Actually 38 years (and counting) behind us Drew-boy!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

My mistake mate, my maths ain't too flash but I happily stand corrected :D

Mate, you've got to be in it to win it, and presently, we have a chance, and you don't. What a great, continuing legacy to have by a surviving club, to continually fail! Say what you want about 99 but it was the biggest chance you've had since 76 I think it was, and you got shown up by 'The Man' and his partner in tries Tingha.

We might 'technically' only have 5 years of history, but hell, I'd prefer 5 years of mediocrity with the likelihood that this year will begin the success for the next 5 years, than 38 years of 'hit and miss'.[/quote]

I fail to see your point, we are still surviving right? Desnt mean we have to do it easily. Im just happy where still around, I'd prefer to be around and poor then dead, merged and rich. Any new club would have money when two clubs combined.

Round 8: Saints 42 - Sharks 12; Round 20: Saints 26 - Sharks 14... knocking Sharks out of the comp.

Does this effect our result with Roosters? FACT: We beat 'benchmark', you's couldnt. Im happy with the signs we have shown against the truly top sides in the Broncos, Roosters and even the Bulldogs this year. Next year looks good. Dragons knocked us out of comp :? . IS that what you like to think? I believe stupid loses to Souths, Cowboys, Eels etc got us out of it.

I wont be betting on us getting in, you may not I said:

Realistically, we wont

Good luck in the Finals series, you will need it the way you lost to sides like the Cowboys.

The Roosters were very ordinary that day. My compliments though to your English teachers over there on the swamp. Beautiful grammar. :clap:

Ah yes, your losses to wooden spoon "benchmarks". So that leaves you where? :lol:
I would say failing to perform for most of the year "got you out of it".

Saints definitely knocked the Sharks out of the comp. It's a fact.
Sharks lost the round 20 match, and their spot in the top eight... they haven't been able to get back in since.

As for beating the Roosters, that was the Sharks best game of the year and it won't be repeated. Something to keep you feeling happy as the days get longer.

It wasnt our best game at all, our best was against the Bronco's at Suncorp. From this, we lost BK (SOO) and Peachey, that may half be why we aernt going to well. Our loss to the Dragons was not what has ruined our finals chances, that statement is a joke. What cost us were loses to teams like Tigers and Dogs in last minutes and stupid loses to Souths and Cowboys etc.

Who owns who?

Fact: Saints have beaten Sharks twice this year.
Fact: Saints defeated Sharks in round 20, knocking them out of the top 8.
Fact: Sharks haven't managed to get back into the top 8 since.

But don't worry, I'm sure they'll "survive". :lol:

Yes, however they didn't knock them out of contention with that win. ;-)

Funny, you guys didn't mind reversing the logic last year.

Sharks fans are hypocrites, they are now blaming injuries for their failures. When we have all our players out according to Sharks fans its no excuse. :?
You can't have it both ways fools.

Adios Amigos for 2004... Cowboys 36 thrash Rabble 20

Nice work Cowboys.

When it came to favorite Scummer moments, I recall two of the best quote this year from Sharks supporters:

"At least we weren't beaten by 50"

and

"Premierships have nothing to do with success"
:clap:
