always need to be cautious with a team like the tiges.
I agree we got focus on this game this week and not worry about storm in rd 6

agree with snowy, don't want to get dragged into a drab type of game.
did this happen to titans last week or was it they had a few out from COVID????

these are the games to get nervous about, the tigers now feel like we did in 09/10

they will drag us into a crap game and try and beat us with shitty niggle and horrible tactics

an early couple of tries will kill their spirits, the longer it takes us to capitalise on them being a revolting team/club, the more confident they will grow in their assignment
Hopefully that Brailey plodder pulls his finger out.

They can either succumb early and make it easy for themselves or they can let us do them slowly.

I've been following the Sharks since I was a kid in the 70s and I've never seen any of our teams buy into the system like this squad. They believe in the system that they've rehearsed and back the system even when things aren't going their way.

I reckon this means we'll end up with a lot less unexpected wins against us as a result. Stay calm, keep doing the right stuff.

As a die hard Sharks fan I always expect the unexpected and always expect to lose when we're supposed to win. I just expect it to happen much less at the moment.

Yep, people on here saying it will be an easy game shouldn’t get ahead of themselves.. they will fight tooth and nail we can’t just expect to turn up and win, hope the players are switched on and ready to belt cnts

Three big wins on the trot, two against quality opposition leading into playing the worst team in the league? It’d be the most Cronulla thing to do to **** this up.

I don’t care by how much just ****ing win.

Not that the tigers squad is filled with amazing players but they have had a number of injuries who I think are starting to come back into the team which should improve them.

It prob won't be as easy to rack up points against them as we think. even if their attack is poor I think their defense is improved. They led the Storm in first half in rnd1 and prob should have won last week against Titans in a tight game.

Big part of their problem/culture at present is they are just not used to winning and have forgotten how so confidence / morale is difficult. Our club has gone through the same **** in the past
