Next week is going to be a cracker of a game. Hoping the knights beat Souths? Two teams inform and I'll actually be at the game. Should be a big crowd

So, after three good wins in a row, are people going to take us seriously again? (if they ever did in the first place). Have we got some credibility back and are some of the finals teams going to find us tougher to play?

Need to remember that the last two games to come are not pushovers, need to win both of those too. No reason why we can’t.

And if we do, we should find ourselves in the top 4.
I believe we will be taken seriously if our pack gets over Canberra / Melbourne / Penrith packs.

If we are able to win our next two it's a hell of a lot of momentum at the right time. If we did that, and managed to jag 4th spot I'd be rating us a chance. My concern is finishing 5th and playing a fully fit souths.

Hopefully if that does happen Roosters put them through another war the week before

Yep. It would also be classic Cronulla for the Roosters to make 8th and for us to lose to them after they've had a shocking year.

**** south’s. We’re better than them. If we win our next 2 nobody will want to play us in the finals imo.

I hope St George can cause an upset over the Storm. That would be absolutely massive for us.

And they have their own "Sharkstragic" too:

Did you see when Hazleton scored? Man playing ball advanced mark a metre or 2-enabled a really quick ptb-bang try...ref was in the middle of warning the man playing the ball, when interuppted by the try.
I wish the ref gave us the penalty-instead of giving the Sharks man playing the ball leeway "get it right next time mate"
They literally scored cause the man playing the ball cheated and created an opportunity, that Hazleton needed every inch of-Hazleton wouldnt have got there without the aid of the hooker being able to zip onto the ball...fknbs

Chad's a handy scapegoat... not like Dearden did anything last night.
Once all the middles came off and Toomy, Royce and Jack got over the top of their middle subs the grind disappeared and we burst into the lead and didn't let up. While forward battle was neck and neck they probably thought Chad looked decent.

A couple of soft barge over trys that you probably don’t get against the tops teams makes this game a lot closer.

Good to get another win and the confidence up, and see the halves working well together.

But the team looks unfit, be interesting to see how they go against some top teams.

They also have their own Chad.

"Hi guys. Forum tough guy and resident poet here. I notice that the knives are out this morning. After reading some of the comments here I was reminded of some words from the William Shakespeare play, Macbeth.

"Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.

I have thee not, and yet I see thee still......."

That's just Sir Chadley doing some undercover work. 🕵️‍♀️

Just watching the replay now. First penalty of the game against Brailey was ridiculous as Feldt had hold of his shirt!

How did Adam Gee not see that?
