2022 NRL Round 16 Cronulla Sutherland Sharks vs. Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs @ CommBank Stadium, Sydney, Saturday 2nd July 3:00pm

Gives you a different perspective on some games that otherwise wouldn't be as interesting (because now you have some skin in the game).
For example to you, if you even watched last night, you (I assume) don't really give a **** Koula scored twice but I'm stoked by that, he's gunna make a good chunk more money for me now.

Also tends to get you keeping a much closer eye on younger guys and debutants across the league.

Draft I did for the first time this season and is another beast again as you have restricted options who is available so you get some real random selections, but don't have to worry about cap and price changes.


I'd say on average it seems people think the Sharks will win but would not be shocked if beaten by Dogs.
Being a biased Sharks fan I think a lot of people just like the narrative of the Dogs getting another win.
Helps confidence in them that they have finally found their spine, but at the end of the day it being their best spine doesn't make it a top 8 quality spine.

They have a good enough team they can easily beat us if we play the way we have some games this season.

I'm actually very happy he scored twice mate, had that and the manly upset in my multi this weekend.

 

[Sevshark]

did you watch our grand final?

Yes and 1 game 6 years ago helps your point how?
Apart from allowing you to be patronising of course. Also since you're going that route, you do know what the word GENERALLY means don't you?

That's definitely the other way to get some skin in random games.
You had him to score twice? What is your multi it must be a big payoff if it comes through

Haha I do a couple of $10 multis and Melbourne back 5 looked pretty patchy so went koula 2 in one and Harper for 2 in the other
Had Koula in one with B. Smith anytime but need To'o for a double and Sualli anytime tonight.

Feel free to keep a tally this weekend and report back to me.

No disrespect, but your comment actually got me curious enough to check last round, as it's always been something that has annoyed me that the numbers mean jack ****.

9 teams had 2/3 play next to each other on the edge - Dragons, Bunnies, Manly, Sharks, Titans, NZ, Penrith, Chooks and Tigers.
The other 7 teams did not.

I also then checked if the the 2/5 indicated which side of the field they play on. In 11 sides, the number 2 was their left winger.

There is enough variety their that you couldn't be sure which side/who they play next to based off the number on their back. Which is annoying because it's a simple detail that would be really handy for the fans if it was consistent.

 

[apezza]

I won't expect us to be so lucky!
Maybe Ramien and Graham/Wilton might like to try and take some of the pep out of his step though.
As a bonus Burton so tall Ramien's upright shots shouldn't be high

Run Sifa directly at Flanju the whole first half, will get them super compressed for Ronnie to stroll in as required.

You tell Graham to go all out with the pressure. If he goes a but high and gets a few weeks so be it.

Thanks Proud, so the majority still do line up next to each other, but only slightly.

No disrespect taken.

I'm more than happy to have a debate with a bit of bants or be told and shown I'm wrong, like bort did about schoupp earlier.

However like anyone who loves this club and has put up with all of it's bullshit over the years I won't cop being called a fake fan and I wouldn't expect anyone else to either.

Stop being so reasonable!


I find it crazy that it's not clear-cut. Player numbering should be consistent and bloody team lists should mean something. I hate all the ducks and drakes **** of whether someone is playing or not.

You caught me leaving the chiropractor mate, don't expect it to happen again!

Did we sign someone from Venezuela and nobody bothered to put it in the signings thread?

Got Colquhoun right though I think? Haha

50mm HB.. Conditions looking Boggier by the hour

Was going to say slug fest but the slugs might drown

 

[stormshark]

Not sea slugs.... or the Mighties hopefully!

I'd probably drown myself over facing a Burton bomb in these conditions.

Soft 7 now ..could get in the heavy range ..

 

[Rob]

Burtons bombs are horrible to catch but it can go wrong for him 2 and put them dead or out on the full.
A Wet ball is a hell of a lot harder to kick of the side of the boot correctly

 

[vicsharkfan]

Hope it’s that wet we can just let the bombs land and they stick in the mud, then we jump on em.

 

[sharkstragic]

Sorry lads we lose this one. Load up
On dogs , we can’t play **** teams
