Match 2024 NRL Round 10 - Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks vs Melbourne Storm, 7.35pm Saturday 11 May @ AAMI PARK

[HaroldBishop]

Agree, but we're much better than the Tigers too. I just hope we keep an eye on Harry Grant and Munster as they always seem to have a field day against us, and we haven't won there since 2018.

It's only 4 games though, not like it's 10.

It's only 4 games though, not like it's 10.

and yet they've won 6 out the last 7 against us. What I'm trying to say is no matter what team they put on the park, they always lift against us, whether they're on the slide or not.

It's more to do with us than them now imo.

They'd have a similar record against more teams than just us btw.

Agree in that sense. We need to shrug off this mental barrier we seem to have against them, especially down there. I hope Fitzy has them prepared in that facet. I just hope it's not an ambush.

I know they're not as good but we recently had a mental barrier against Canberra as well.

It comes down to us, with their outs I have no doubt our best is better than theirs. Can we play at that level is theh question for me.

I would hope we're up for it given we haven't been in the past. Do we want to take the next step, or keep on being pretenders? It's in our hands.

 

[Thresher]

It's the kicking game that could separate us.

I think Munster has the edge over Nicho.

Shame Trindall aint playing because he would have swung that side of the game in our favour.

Hopefully Nicho's experience with the in goal sizes etc is of benefit.

 

[Western Sharkie]

They've won their last 14 straight at AAMI Park. Won't be easy no matter what.

So what I’m hearing is that
“They are due”

Looking forward to heading to this game. I think we are a reasonable chance. Hunt playing actually worries me a bit though. His defence concerns me. I hope he is up to speed

Well if we can't beat them with Hughes and Paps out I struggle to think when we will , as others have said this is about us , we need to be controlled and mean , give them nothing . Win the forward battle then close Munster and Grant down fast and that will go a long way to winning , between them and the other 2 players they drag the others along , without those 4 the average players struggle , beat them and it will give us confidence for the next time we meet them and going forward to the other tests .

I am really hoping we see Wilton and Nikora shut down their plays and our forwards roll their middle. Time will tell.

Would love to see some Wade-style aggression in that area.

Now you know why Fitz prefers to run, not kick on the last... genius!

Faalogo is a freak and a dangerous one.

100%, been watching him play for years, his Support play is right on point= to the best. Superman MickEnnises, and Brailey, being our quickest middles better be on high alert, round the Ruck.

Y that, and trying to push Wonder offloads. Just need to do his bit, 0 misses and 0 dropped balls. Nice strong secure carries when he does get on. Sorta glad he's getting a run but, need the whole squad as FG match fit as possible IMHO. Thow the back ups a bone here and there.

 

[Shortfin Mako]

This is one game I wish AFB joined us this year.

Hughes and Paps are big outs and we're close enough to full strength. I think we should expect to win this one. Not by a lot, but enough.

Will we though? No idea.

 

[MMsharks]

hoping we put up a good showing and get the W

that will back up the consistent wins of late (no matter the opposition), maybe settle some of the pushback we cop.

alot us here believe we can match it with the best. on our day and when everything drops for us - we can handle anyone.

but a matter of wait and see what they put up

Yep he is a freak of nature.

Storm only paying $1.81. Not happy.

I reckon Sharks will be $1.90 come kick off.
