Lets be honest, even at our best we wouldn’t be able to beat these guys when they’re in this kind of form. Keeping it under a 30 point margin is going to be a monumental achievement tonight.

18-0 is a rotten score line but the way the Panthers have played, it’s good we’ve stopped it from being higher.

Cam McInnes is a legend, head and shoulders above everyone else in Sharks colours. The attitude and effort is much better this week but our execution and ball control is still woeful.

Absolutely shits me how we cannot make tackles and lock up the ball. Too many offloads and they keep doing it. Sorry but Brailey’s early pass was not forward, and Mitch Kenny has thrown 3 or 4 that wasn’t called.

Second half we just need to keep trying and try and get some points.

We got this. Wade going good. In fact left side has been great. Trindall pressuring and wade covering is working
****ed up at the end there. Trying to do two things at once it seems. Should have ran the unders line of he wanted to pass. Instead he ran overs and still passed.

Hazeltons a defense is excellent. Especially for a big dude.

I just want them to keep up this effort in D and continue it for the rest of the year. Learn to work for each other and have a ****in dig

Constantly on the front foot too. Reminds me a lot of Aaron Woods actually, just with a little more horsepower.

I actually thought he was a bit soft a couple years ago but he's really hardened up. Kind of need him to take that leadership role in the forwards atm. He's playing like it anyway.

Hopefully without the milk/mucking about every PTB (regardless of if tackling or tackled)

If Kennedy is gone for a while, I’m thinking Moylan might have to play 1. Tracey is crap at it and who else do we have?

Could try it if coach thinks he has it in his legs
Not sure he does

Atkinson, Tracey, Hiroti, Iro

He’s playing like a seasoned forward after only a handful of games. Him, Williams, cam and Toby are all doing well.
