With the view of the Sharks brand being part of the A-League I support this investment. It is absolutely true that most of the A-League Clubs struggle financially, this is because of poor management decisions. I can speak about the Brisbane Roar/ Suncorp Stadium Contract. To break even, the...

The Club has recently secured $4M (Reported) worth of sponsorship. In the current economic climate, that is nothing short of a miracle and even more so when you consider our own history with sponsorship challenges. My own thoughts are that you don’t get sponsors on board that quickly unless...

I also sent an email to Lyall. I have asked that we turn this negative into a positive by offering a "Drop Kick" Sharks Membership Package for 2016. My proposal is that these seats are located at the try line. I would also like to see the NRL refer to the "drop out" to "drop kick" which is...

Hi Egg, if you are in Brisbane, you must live in either Eggnogera, Eggle Farm, Eggleby or Egg Mile Plains?

Some great answers and really interesting thoughts - Thanks. For me, the perfect set of six is simply as many different players touching the ball as possible and keeping the ball in hand. My perfect set wouldn't have any kicking. First two tackles - 8 and 10 down the middle Third tackle -...

Great start! As a Coach you want as many of your players to handle the ball as quickly as possible. So a starting point could well be that both Props take hit ups on tackle 1 an 2 with possibly an off load. In the first two tackles we have the 8,9 and 10 touching the ball.

I was asked to Coach in 2015, but declined for family reasons. I will get back into the mix one day though. In my previous Coaching roles on the first day of training, I will always ask "What is the perfect set of six?". The assumption is receiving the ball from the kick off. I hear the chip...

I have to strongly disagree. I held grave concerns for our season when I saw the Round 1 Press Conference against the Titans when we lost 18-12. Peter Sharp showed zero sign of disappointment, wrote the game off as a loss due to injuries and showed no focus, desire or even interest in the...

Please let me re-iterate some points facts from previous discussions - 1. The "official" supplement program of the Club was 100% above board. All records were maintained and all supplements have been cleared. On that basis, the Club has no case to answer. The implemented program was sourced...

I don't hate Flanno, but I am extremely disappointed that the Head Coach of MY club has taken absolutely zero responsibility and blamed "the system" rather than himself as the HEAD of Football. He deserves ALL of the criticism he has received to this point. I would be far more forgiving if...

I would love to know what Flanagan's thoughts would be if this "truce" was offered, seeing he was advising the players to reject the initial 6 month ban. This will have a direct impact on his playing group for 2015. If the players believe they are innocent as they have stated, they should not...

I NEVER EVER want to see this great FOOTBALL CLUB of our get a wooden spoon. I don't care what the other Clubs have or haven't done. Does this current TEAM (can't really call them a team - group of players) deserve the spoon? They sure do! It is US as the supporters of the Club that feel the...

Mate, I live on the South Coast (Shellharbour) and I would be very keen to buy a yearly ticket that included both the soccer and the Rugby League.

I believe we can be the Kardinia Park (Geelong) of the NRL. They are the only AFL Club that does not play out of the MCG or Etihad Stadium.

I have some rumor information to share - ASADA - I cannot provide a date, but my understanding is that ASADA will be issuing "show cause" notices BEFORE Coach Shane Flanagan is due back from suspension. It is my understanding that Cronulla have approached Wayne Bennett about Coaching the...
