Linnett winterstein lowe were injured tonight. Not sure if they will be back

Lowe is gone for the season. Needs spinal surgery. Green has accused the Storn of injuring him in a grapple tackle.

Winterstein will likely play.

Linnet will be 50/50. It's a hamstring injury, which usually needs more than a week.

Lol - total clickbait.

This is the quote from Bennett.

They've got seven days to recover. They're a durable side. You couldn't say that they couldn't do it. They'll think they can," Bennett said.

Whichever teams we play over the next week or fortnight are going to be more favoured or supported by those in the media, best those that get bent out of shape by social commentary start taking some meds or better still treat it like water off a ducks back, their warped one sided ideas have no bearing on the game, relax and breath. Be happy they are still talking about games that feature the sharks.

 

[CrankyShark]

We need our defence to be on song for this one as we aren't scoring as freely as we were during the streak. The Cows should be tired though so that will help our attack.

If we bring our A game we really should be taking these guys after that bruising game. Bring it on.

 

[HaroldBishop]

As others have said no penalties when they're coming out of their end. If we're level with 20 to go we should run over them on fresher legs.

Didnt realise taumalolo ran for 270m last night. Ridiculous with that intensity. Would love him to somehow miss next week.

Could be the first forward to earn $1m per year when he signs his next contract. Weapon.

Yep. Egg-citing player.

 

[Opeth]

Completion rate is a big issue with us as well. We completed at 68% against the Raiders and 70% against Storm.

We raise it by 20% and we beat the raiders by 12 + and probably beat the Storm.

How about some of you guys help if someone asks for some instead of always having a go at people on here! Everyone is entitled to their own choices everyone is not going to do what you guys would do.

 

[JimBob]

Seriously? Fly all the way down here and not go. OK mate x.

Ease up. Believe it or not but some people prefer to watch the game on telly than be at the game.

 

[snowman]

gotta beat the best, absolutely ****in pumped

A little bit of woof in the air. lol

Watching on telly is actually heaps, heaps cooler.

That way, when discussing the finer points of the game you can use the info you've learnt from the commentators, rather then having to work it out for yourself.

By the way I've got my tickets for the Prelim and the GF.

 

[dylan the villian]

One of the stats gurus can hopefully back me up here but I'm pretty certain the win/loss ratio is highly in favour of the side who scores more points.

So with that in mind I would personally aim to score more tries than the Cowboys. Penalty goals are only worth half as much as a try and that is only if you don't convert the penalty which can make it worth 3x as much as a penalty goal.

Get off that boat and into a coaching box with me!

it really is a simple game, how has this not been the game plan before i dont know.

 

[Harty]

I much prefer watching the game on tv, but go to games to support
The boys and obviously the experience.

Cant beat the insane atmosphere of a finals game. Last weeks game v raiders the sharks bay was off the charts!

 

[Western Sharkie]

Love the atmosphere you get by being at the ground (hence our trip over to Shark Park to watch the Eels game), but you do get to "watch" more of the game on TV So if Sharkboy18 can get the best of both worlds. Why not!

 

[CrankyShark]

Whether you are watching at the ground or on TV, we can all be thankful it aint the fans who have to tackle that beast Talamolo.
