Sharks v Raiders game day thread

[Inferno]

7am and no one has posted a game day thread?

Things are slipping around here.

I can see this one being a slugfest.

We're favourites but I can't see why.

 

[Ozzi_78]

Easy money.

I blame Easter. Too many sherbets.

it’s a strange comp atm, anything could happen.

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Very concerned about this one today.

I hope I am wrong

 

[Griffoshark66]

Raiders by 32. They will run straight over us.

 

[Poss]

Elliot Whitehead out for Raiders with a calf issue.

Zac Hosking to start and Corey Horsburgh onto the bench.

Makes their side better. Hoskings a good player, that red head will get under our soft forwards skin and Whitehead has been finished for about 5 years.

Someone belt that merkin Rapana please

Wonder if we'll let the young 5/8 just find his feet and play well like we did with Galvin last week.

Dear bluefox and Stake Removed.

Please tip the Raiders.

Do the Sharks even have someone in the team who can intimidate him? Jacky Williams maybe could try and take him out legally.

Surely the team has a rocket up their ass…

I didn't believe you so I had to check.
How is this possible?
I guess it just goes to show how stupid the average punter is.

 

[Feej 2: Electric Boogaloo]

Their forwards will trample us, once again leaving our halves without a platform to work from.

Raiders by 22

 

[roboshark]

Raiders by plenty

 

[Stake Removed]

Dear bluefox and Stake Removed.

Please tip the Raiders.

I actually tipped the Raiders

Prediction that Rapana will lay down for a penalty, as per normal usually grabbing his neck for crusher or leg for hip drop, then jumps up for next play.

Ve'alla must play lol

We lose the games we are expected to win. We very occasionally win the games we are expected to lose. Just got a feeling we may pull a win out of our backsides

Simplify, compose, execute & persist. That's my game plan.

Simplify, compose, execute & persist. That's my game plan.

I think that's an excellent game plan but our ability to execute is a dicey proposition.

If the Raiders forwards gain ascendency and get 3 or even 2 trys up on us I could see our forwards going to water.

Assuming we don't suffer any injuries I do think the balance on the bench will help.
