Be interesting to get some insight into who's the quickest in our top squad over 100m whilst carrying the ball.

When I think of who in our team is most likely to go the length to score, Tracey is the first that comes to mind.

Could be way off the mark but it'd be great to know.
I'd back Kennedy.

You wouldn't expect passing to be a weak point of his game, but he's butchered a few tries in his time!

Thankfully Ronnie was good enough to get this one.

Why wouldn't we expect this? His FG Sharks career has demonstrated passing to be a weak point of his game on many an occasion


Over 20-30 metres maybe Brailz - a better looking Jamie Soward if you will

Because he came through as a half... but yes his passing at centre has always been questionable.

Yeah. If you watched him play before fg though it was pretty clear he was not a half. Whether he was wearing 7 or 6 all he did was run.

his passing from all around the ground has issues, hooker, half, centre wherever
Still remember the forward pass v rabbits rd2 last year..forward pass last 30 secs to win it

Nothing official yet but NRL physio did say that as Connor had off season groin surgery he may be more sensitive to minor stretch… hopefully pain level worse than injury level based on that and maybe be very short term at most

I have watched the human sledgehammer, Ravalawa, steamroll through many notable defenders since his debut. I don’t recall seeing Ravalawa being knocked off his intended line before Thursday night. Very pleased to see it was Tracey that managed to do it. Determination / technique & ticker. Great try saving play. Agreed Tracey does not seem a natural passer, but great to see him hit the mark for a couple of TA this year. Still pissed that his potential game winning final pass was ruled forward against Newcastle last year for a win - you think I would have got over it by now, but no.

Yeh, pound for pound there’s no doubting he’s tough & strong
Talking tough buggers pound for pound, I think of Steve Kneen every time I see your profile pic Bundy Shark; but as your name suggests it assume it is the great one; Les Davidson -the Enforcer for so many years.

Anyone know how long he is out for. I have ready two different articles. One references HIA and the other groin. Both TBA.

It was his groin, he kind of did the splits in that tackle and immediately was in agony.

Considering it's been an issue all off season for him they might give him a proper rest now, though with Ika out we might not have that luxury.

So much for the commentary team having a crack at us about HIA protocols then!
