"Sharks out-grind lacklustre Cowboys"

never gonna get credit where credit be due will we.

Out-grind?

That was one of the Sharks least grinding games in quite some time. A grind would make it seem like there were 4 points or so in it. The Sharks played pretty well all round today.

Headline should be more "Sharks outplay lackluster Cowboys"

As you said, never going to get credit.

Nrl.Com changed their headline. Originally said something like red hot sharks something something.

Don't really agree with the Headline from our match report from the Nrl.

Says that Sharks out-grind lacklustre cowboys.

Don't think it was the usual "grind" display thought we Dominated most of the game. With and without the ball.

And to say the cowboys were lacklustre is a bit rich I thought they played as good as we let them. I don't think they played poorly we were just on!

My opinion anyways

at half time both gasnier and Anasta said we will win.....and all their tries were off kicks and on the back of double penalties

Haha. Sadly I think you're right. They won't make it a feel good thing, or the wank-fest like Souths winning. It will probably just be shrugs all round.

We came out blazing in defence and they weren't lacklustre. We beat them up front in the first half. Thurston got loose once, and had an earlier half break in the first half.

Unfortunately we didn't dominate their pack in the second half but we traded blows and got home. I thought it was a great game of footy and we have plenty of flair, unfortunately not in the halves. Right now we are premiership outsiders.

Yep seen that, "GRIND" 30 bloody points and they call it a grind.

The only thing we did was smash the Cowboys in their own half.
