Why no Miller? Clearly I missed something - 290 meters on debut etc.

We’re not at the coalface mate so we don’t know the reasons behind it. Yes Miller had an impressive debut but one game doesn’t mean he is a superstar and gets first go. Perhaps Dykes form is better, perhaps his attitude is better, who knows. I’m happy to trust Fitz at this stage.

I wonder if the Dragons fans are practising their phantom soft whistle!

We actually get both offenders as Butler is in the bunker just reversing roles - surely they should of kept them apart for common sense sake ….
Maybe they will be more on their game after the roasting they got.
This MAY be a good thing…..

Need a big win here to boost our points differential. Our top 4 chances rely heavily on this game.

I don't think our f/a is an issue now. Cow's is far better than ours as is the Storm's, ours is easily better than the rest. We just need to win.
Put 40 on Dragons, 30 on dogs and 30 on Tigers and the f/a diff between us and the Cowboys is gone. There I fixed it for you ;)

Interesting snippet from the Match Preview on nrl.com

The Sharks' friendly run home gives them every chance to grab a top-four spot and their surge to September starts on Saturday against old rivals the Dragons.

Sitting third on 28 competition points, the Sharks play the sides coming 11th, 15th, 10th, 12th and 14th in the final five games so a home final at PointsBet Stadium beckons.

Hopefully we can but I'd be surprised if they allow it with the reduced capacity.

Not being a local and not following the development, why is the capacity reduced so much? Are there still bits that are not finished, or have they permanently removed seating to fit in the adjacent residential/business stuff?
