Kurt Sorensen was awarded Player of the Series, if it's the same thing :cheers

We made the Final on three other occasions.

1981 Tooths Cup , where we lost out to the Bunnies 10-2. Steve Rogers got Player of the Series :cheers

1983 KB Cup, where we lost out to Manly 26-6.

1985 National Panasonic Cup, where we lost out to Balmain 14-12.

The Sharks use to go alright on a Wednesday night. Just need a little work on that last hurdle
