Totally agree. I was screaming at them the reason we were doing it. So frustrating.

It’s a basic thing you do when you’re down to 12 men.

And then the Fifita call on Hunt, idiots!

I normally don’t mind Blocker, but I wish he’d stop calling us Sharkies. That’s reserved for us fans. It sounds so patronising when they do it. We’re the Sharks.

Don’t hear then saying Panthies, or Broncies or Rabbities do we?
Sorry mate but I reckon as fans we should be pleased as such when they say that, to me that is a sign of respect, that's our nickname & when people call you by your nickname to me that is a sign of respect.

I’ll probably remind everyone when the Manly game thread goes up BUT PLEASE REMEMBER THIS!

Manly could have half their team out injured and they’d still beat us.

So put the thoughts of their injuries out of your minds.

We can never beat them.

I thought of Feki when he scored that one.


yeah but did feki do those aerials much??? sione had done similar efforts before

loved feki when he had form he was feking awesome! LOL
but if katoa can harness this more often, will be good for his career and us!!!:glasses-cool:

If we pick the same 17 next week - I’m gonna say we’ll win!

Honestly, Hunt was decent but we don't need him
He only played 16m and cut BHU down to 28m and Talakai played 44m but 10 of those were as a centre.
Toby played 43m and looked like he had more in the tank. 32m probably about right for Fifita but could do more if needed.

Also don't want to just give the spot to someone for the sake of it, and Hunt didn't deserve to lose it necessarily, but might be a good chance to give Wilton or Trindall a jersey to see what they can offer

loved how the FOX commentator kept confusing Hunt with Fifs.

and he never got Talaki's name right, well he kept changing the pronunciation of it. I'm confused how to say his name now

Interesting game- no errors on the second half and some nice scoring opportunities. Bulldogs played pretty well. Our desperation in broken play to shut it down wasn’t there which is worrying I was waiting for us to lose it. That try they scored with true kick back infield showed our slack attitude.

High points:
Talakai- beast
Katoa- we have a try scorer! I couldn’t stop thinking about how feki would’ve handled that low pickup
Williams seems to be finding form again
Brailey is going to be a star

Low points
Ramien And Johnson seem so lost On that side- whether it’s communication or timing, it just seems so clunky over there

Moylan at the back seemed to be holding back and it cost us a few times.

Missed having a faster more agile forward in the last 20- I’d say Sorensen back in for hunt next week

just watching the replay - the first restart, we had against us was waddo and brailey. Ref called "and together", they got up in pretty much one motion from when it was said. as soon as he said it, ref then said 'six more' and "too SLOW" in one breath. its bogus this six again.

??????**** I don't get these 'six agains'

just used to swing momentum

and even against the dogs;

marshall and big guy on nikora; tackle made, called "HELD' they get get off pretty much straight away - it was all good and it was restart to us.

didn't need to be a SET RESTART.

I’d love someone with some time on their hands to go through and assess them all

With no review so many of them seem dubious

a SET RESTART for the dogs;

brandon hamlin uele and jack williams tackled player. brailey was there but dropped off early
Ref says "MOVE' They are up on their feet and let go simultaneously from ref calling it. Dogs player holding on to Jack's jersey, and Jack puts his arms in the air.

Ref yells "SIX MORE"

WHY??? it wasn't like Cam smith wrestling on the ground five minutes after called held.

it was all in one motion.

I know I'm on a six again crusade but they are ***** calls, its BS from the NRL

I do apologise

I'm on a Des crusade. I watch other games and can't see how the six agains are given.

don't worry I will pipe down in a couple of weeks

Gotta disagree I am liking the six again rule, obviously it's going through some birthing pains but I actually enjoy the new rule.
