You're so right mate. Some of those plays by Robson were true brilliance

A few nice plays from Bomber in there too. If "try assists" were a thing back then people on here would have liked those two blokes a bit more.

Looked like they had a great combo. Hopefully bomber is teaching that to Brailey.

Enjoyed the whole clip really, thanks for the share Bort.

Fifs he got through some work and all but too slow, gets handled fairly easily by the defense now. his offload that got intercepted while we were on the comeback and in prime position early set was a killer. did not need that, hope we don't see too many more desperate plays which will be tempting for him if he isn't having the impact in his runs liked he used to.

feel sorry for him, his body just hasn't been right for a while now. will need to make some tough decisions about him if he doesn't improve over the season

You look at our big money players....SJ, Moylan, Dugan and Fifita. No other club would take any of them on 75% of their wage.

Not great.

fifita's salary doesn't bother me. he earnt that if you ask me with the way he has played and developed for the Sharks over the years. he was just a big forward with some promise when he first arrived here.
those other 3 didn't really earn it, they just rocked up here and expected/demanded big dollars (in line with market expectations and hype tbf) from the outset and have been mixed performers. Sj and Duges have started to come good but yea it would still be hard to convince another club to front their full wages going forward.

I just want Fifita to get fit and play well again. it doesn't stress me that he takes up X amount of our cap. he's hardly a blow in

He did earn it, doesn’t deserve it now though. Meanwhile we lose players we’d like to keep while he rolls in money from past glory.

40 mins and only 112m with 2 dumb errors isn’t good enough from one of the highest paid starting props in the NRL. Not even close.

Woods did 25% more time, ran twice as far and made no errors.

This bloke is now a lemon, body is busted and mentality has always wavered from legend to lunatic.

BHU is the future.

what do you want to do? Ask Andrew for the money back? he was the best prop in the game a few years back and indispensable to our team. sometimes things change

if this is the level his body allows him to play at now then he absolutely cannot afford to make mistakes. you could cop them somewhat in the past because of how damaging he was with the ball. so he needs to adapt his game and play smart.

I would suggest the relatively low minutes was intentional from coach and from the looks of him you can understand that decision.

Woods gave away a penalty btw. more disciplined and tidy than Andrew though for sure tonight but it's not like he has delivered us value for money week in week out in the past. has started this season very well though and is looking good
