anyone else terrified what the Eels monster that plays left wing will do to whoever we stick out there this week to defend?

Is Fergo going to play or is he injured? dunno if he will let Feki score another 2 try's on him this time round

If Moses is afforded time and space to bomb to our backline we are in trouble. beyond some of our backs having outright terrible handling they are also woeful in the aerial contests. also suck in attack in this regard. I mean Capewell is our best jumper and he is a backrower...

Parra are one of the few teams in the NRL I hold no ill feelings towards and while having friends and family that support them it isn't a situation where they would give me stick over a loss.
But I just want the competition points regardless. We need to go on a bit of a run from here string more wins together in a big clump and try to break free from the **** fight for positions in the top 8

With Origin not impacting us massively this season and some big players starting to filter back no reason we can't set our eyes on that top 4. ok there is a reason, we are all over the shop this year lol but we are more than good enough

Sharks to win by 2 points

I’m take a 1 point scrappy win but we realllllly need to start putting on a show if we want to have any chance of taking a top 4 spot. We are quite a few points behind knights and raiders and although early in the year we still need to start putting teams to bed. Doesn’t have to be this week but would want to see a really good attacking effort if we get SJ and Wade back - although they will be extremely rusty.

I think we will win but it will be close probably like 22-18 or something

I'm hoping for

Katoa in for Feki
SJ in for Kyle.....assuming he's right to go
Wade in for Capewell

Interesting we didn't even name JoMo in the squad.

The question is, with Johnson getting back to full fitness obviously but Flanno jnr in good form, will Johnson come straight back into start when he is fully fit? I'd imagine Graham would though.

Morris not even in the 18-21 is interesting but I guess naming Graham and SJ to potentially return makes it hard to also name Morris and risk him not being available.

Katoa retains his spot at the bottom of the winger pecking order for being duped by Keary and Mitchell. Not sure how he's played in Cup since.

No chance Johnson starts on the bench or in NSW cup.

Cya Flanno.

Good thing Feki hasn't done anything wrong...

I'd say thats the case aswell, Flanno is only young & has plenty of time to develop still. Once we get these big names back we'd get a fair few more points I'd say.

Ray Stone sounds as though he should have played 40 years ago. That name has no place in the modern game.
