Team verses the Storm

[Frenzy.]

Gee, are we starting with the "we wuzz robbed" even before the game kicks off?

HAHA What's new? This defeatist attitude has been going on for months. Self handicapping is well documented in psychology. Pre emptive criticism allows the defeatists to let the Sharks off the hook if they perform poorly.

It's an intricate form of fluff.

 

[Arnold]

I believe PHIL Gould does something similar but opposite.

He is saying we will win it. That allows him the right to say we choked if we don't.

I think we will do to the Storm what the Broncos did. Us by 14.

 

[Card Shark]

But only better....

Yeah right

 

[RUBIKS]

Wouldn't surprise me to beat the Storm twice in the season the then be trounced by them in the finals.

Yep. The Karmichael has stitched us up this weekend as well.

Sharks will beat Storm

I believe Cronulla will defeat Melbourne this weekend and win the 2016 minor premiership. From the start of the season I have favoured the Sharks to win this year's title. Last weekend's demolition of the Sydney Roosters confirmed to me they have woken from their late-season form slump and are ready for an assault on finals football. I see the Sharks' major assets being their experience, arrogance and confidence. They also have an extraordinary ability to score tries when they need them. Their defence isn't perfect, but when the blowtorch is applied they can frustrate the rhythm of opposition teams with their spoiling antics. There is also a sense of timing about this team. It feels like destiny. The Storm were comprehensively beaten by the Broncos last Friday night at home. I don't agree with the notion that they weren't "up" for the occasion. I just think they were beaten by a better team. The Sharks represent another huge obstacle for them this weekend.

 

[Feej]

Thats so he can jump on the Storm bandwagon next week if they beat us.

This is only time i want Gus to be right

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Heard Mik Ennis say last night on NRL 360 that the lads are looking forward to this game - hope they're fired up.

Come on boys

 

[Card Shark]

Been looking too forward to it, for the last 6 weeks I'd say, part of the reason we lost our way.
