In addition to following Cronulla, I also follow the Geelong Cats in the AFL (hey, I enjoy sport). Geelong has a number of great older veteran players and this season the coach deliberately rests different players for different games with their absence explained as "managed". Coach Chris Scott...

Totally disagree. Daniel Atkinson took 2 steps forward with that great performance in Melbourne against the Storm and Tricky Trindall took 2 steps back getting caught by the police with multiple serious issues. I think that it's now Daniel Atkinson's job to lose and Tricky has to work his way...

Can Kade play 5/8 or is he thought of as strictly a fullback? What sort of natural speed does he have? His Dad, Adam was a terrific player for the Sharks, Kade looks a bit bigger, does he have some comparable skills?

Mr DJ Habib - Your comments are consistently logical, highly intelligent and thought provoking. However, do you realize whether you attend the game or not, actually has zero effect on the result? Ronaldo Mulitalo, Jesse Ramien, Tom Hazelton and the other Sharks will not stop trying to play their...

William is still very, very good and at the moment he's still the best fullback on the team. I like his temperament. Always cool with his emotions under control. When you have some fairly emotional teammates like Ronaldo and Jesse, it is good to have someone like William who is calm under pressure.

Kayal Iro in the centers and Sifa Talakai off the bench is looking like a big win : win. Both playing well and Talakai is so powerful he's a real weapon off the bench.

Go you little beauty!

Hey, he can grow a mustache as well.

Tuku is a problem for opposing teams because he is just so big. He's still a development prospect but I really like the big guy depth that he gives us and you know he's only going to get better.

I knew that Cam was a very tough and courageous player but what I didn't realize was his terrific leadership attributes that only fully surfaced when given the captaincy. We have one of the best team leaders in the league (and he's not emotional).

Noticed Teig calming down Ronaldo and pushing him away when our boy may have spontaneously ignited a fight. It was cool professionalism that showed some intelligent leadership. Ronaldo is brilliant but can be emotional and he comes with a short fuse as he delights in getting under the skin of...

Liked his effort against St George. He's improving.

Tuku Hau Tapuha has the bigger upside. I see Royce Hunt as a decent backup to be called up only if needed.
