Pros & Cons.

Ok, i will go out & state that i think the Sharkies are semi final bound.
In saying that i dont think you are the perfect team but you do have talent & options to burn if you use them.
For me i think you need to keep your halves on the go by having your forwards dominate.
Seymour & Kimmorly dictated the terms yesterday which opened up the Titans on more than one occasion.
Prince looked frustrated & his forwards looked slow & cumbersome.
Although Bird & Gallen are key players dont rely on these two exclusively as it closes down the options to involve other players that could provide the team with that extra attacking options needed in tight games.
In Peek, Douglas, Ross & Nutley you have some go forward that will be there at the start & keep on going until the final whistle & Stuart is rotating his bench accordingly.
I think most on the field yesterday contributed to the win so if you have a good run with injuries then it's up to the 17 on the field to do the rest & i can see no reason why you cant go all the way.

its a long way out to be talking about "going all the way",
but i agree we have a team the should make the eight.

secondly i will also say that our ability to drag other teams down to a grinding, defence dominated style of game has really shown that our forward pack is quite strong, otherwise we simply wouldn't be able to keep up the required defensive intensity for the entire 80mins.

and very pleasingly we showed that we can actually score over 20 points in a match!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all the way

from what i seen yesterday the first 60min were dreadfull we must learn to play 80min not 20 you can't win games if you cough the ball up all the time there are to many teams on 16 points if we are to go all the way we will have to learn to hang onto the ball and play 80 mins

fear of copping another abusive session with ricky must of clicked our side into form..

now they have the belief and confidence to carry out set plays..im excited..our attack has arrived..and the set plays they used yesterday were awesome especially for covells 1st try where he went over untouched

my fear is that we will just miss out because of our poor for n against, the top 8 at is so close 1 loss could be the difference

i tend to agree with you there, but i think we will start to see teams dropping off from now, and hopefully sharks isnt one of those teams.
i do have my doubts that come rnd 25 there wont be a definite gap between 8th and 9th place on the ladder. the positioning of the top 8 however is still anyone's guess
