Qualifying Final 2022 - Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks vs North Queensland Cowboys, Saturday 10 September 7:50pm @ Pointsbet Stadium

Who can afford the luxury?

Tossed up but glad I didn't fly down , having decided to hold fire until hopefully week 3 at the new stadium
This ticketing to go to Shark Park seems like it's a debacle .

Who can afford the luxury?

The panthers

The panthers

Nothing to do with the Panthers mate.

I mean, when you’re replying to a comment about panthers general admission being cheaper than ours… I’d say it’s about the panthers

We’d want our best forward pack starting to try and contain taumalolo

Definitely need to contain Cotter as well. He is an Eveready bunny who goes forever and provides spark and momentum

Better keep him away from our wives too!

Fingers we make the grand final. Got that weekend off. Will fly up for it if we make it

Every time we've finished 2nd in our history, we've made the grand final, 1973, 1978, 1997, but lost. It'll hurt if it happened but I'd still take that now if it happened again.

I'm clinging to the following things happening:

• Our error rate drops significantly
• The Dale factor clicks in
• Talakai, Rudolf and Kennedy are 100% fit
• Nicho brings his A game

I see the dangers from the Cowboys as follows:

• Drinkwater - need to limit his space and time on the ball.
• Val and Chad - the atmosphere will not worry them. Belt Chad as often as possible.
• JT - trying to contain his barnstorming runs
• Cotter - one of the players of the year, very hard runner and very hard to stop

Really hoping we can get the win - as others have said, if we drop this game, there is a real chance we go out the back door.

Agree, but don't forget Nanai and Feldt too, our left edge better be ready.

Thanks mate, I did intend to include Nanai but totally forgot when it was time to send the post.

Jeez Chad is going to have head noise leading into this game. Hopefully works against him. Hope we aim to smack him early and often get him flustered.

Would’ve been nice if he used it as motivation when he was playing here.

Hope we smash him

Townsend is a lego-haired vlogger wanna-be who deserves to be exposed by our Sharkies for the fraudulent salary cap thief that he is.

Normal transmission will resume once the Cowboys are knocked out.

Another post to motivate CT! Well done.
