Round 1 2014: Cronulla Sutherland Sharks v Gold Coast Titans, Monday 10 March 7:00pm @ Remondis Stadium

Our defensive structure was ok. Our attacking structure was totally ****.

A well coached side when they suffer from injuries will lack execution but you will be able to see the attacking plays even if they don't work.

I saw nothing. Nobody knew where to go everything was one out, Carney will help but with that structure its obvious that Flanno and co do not understand attacking football. Our attack based on last nights performance has gone backwards.

The game plan was obviously to grind it out and we nearly won it on defence. A couple of blown ops, stupid mistakes and poor reffing.

yeh he did. if you are happy with a centre making 38m off 7 runs, go for it. probably need to lay off the weights and chicken as it is cloouding your already small lack of knowledge on the game bro

It was 43m and he only averaged a mere half a metre less per run then Ricky and Feki.

The titans on last nights performance will be fighting for the spoon so its not really a good thing that we "almost" won that game.

Last nights game was not the right night to critique our centres. Maybe wait until we have our halves back which will have at least some kind of game plan before we rate our centres.

Gee the refs were terrible last night, not just for us but both teams. Shocking performance.

I think we did well to nearly win personally, considering the players we had out were our key players and the titans fielded a full strength team. The Titans should be embarrassed they only just won yet relieved they got away with the match.

You're right Harold, I said to my wife last night on the drive home it was a all round bludger of a game, can honestly say that experience was one of my least enjoyable matches of RL ever & that's not cause we lost either.

Yep. Tell you what, I would have been filthy if the Kelly no-try was disallowed for us.

Agree on that, we sit in Monty Porter stand & it was right in front of us, I said to my wife that's a try, they got it wrong but on the other hand the try he did get was or should have been no try, he got back to the line but he jumped early, he's quick off the mark but not that quick.

Hopefully we learnt a bit from it as well, Wade was the intended receiver but he was probably a metre & a half to two metres wider than he should have been attacking so close to the line.

Yeah true, I was amazed they didn't review that one.

Was that the little grubber kick through? I thought that was OK. The Kelly one though, offside for mine.

You can leave the defensive line as soon as the ball touches the ground so I believe he was onside. More teams should be aware of this and utilise it to get up in the attacking teams face.

Our first receiver should have been standing either a lot closer or a lot deeper than what he was, that was amateur play right there.

Yep. Being in line with it at the game he was in front by about half a metre.
