Am I a pessimist or realist when I think this will be a tough game, Birdy to have a blinder.

 

[ABshark]

Realist. I think our much-vaunted "forward strength" will be exposed by a bigger pack.

Aiden Sezar will show his class this year too.

But I still think we'll win.

 

[dylan the villian]

kelly to break a leg (again) their pack to flog ours, us to win...just

Honestly, I am feeling a bit unsure about this game.

Titans have a mammoth pack, plus Taylor and Idris linking up on the same side is gunna give us alot of hell.

Sorry to tell yas, and i hope Im wrong, but I think we will buckle under expectation and pressure in round 1 and leave the field with a loss

 

[dylan the villian]

what was the last season we won round one?

 

[BlackWhiteBlue]

what was the last season we won round one?

2010 we came close, Canberra may or may not have just pipped us. haha

 

[sharkiesboomboomboom]

I can't wait to watch the team play again. Very excited!!! Hope we can win as it is a long and depressing trip home when we have lost, particularly when I am sober.

 

[Thresher]

I wouldn't be surprised if we lose this one, will take a while for us to click this year I think

Really hope I'm wrong though

I'm going to be there for my first shark park game since I was about 14

 

[BlackWhiteBlue]

Was really hoping to get down to this game, and round 4. But looks like i wont get there. My missus just started a new job, and her boss is a Sharks fan and says her and her husband will be travelling down to Newy and Gosford for Newy and Dogs games, so we are prob going to head to them aswell

Man i cant even remember the last game i got to at home. Been to a few Newy v Sharks games in newy. I think it might been in 2001 (or 2002) a night game vs the Knights when we smashed em, Peach scored a try on half time from a Matty johns chip and chase gone wrong. Either that game or one where we gave Canberra a flogging and it was absolutely pissing down rain. Either way, Ive been to a few Sharks games in my time, we havent lost 1 yet!

 

[deano the p]

Yeah I've been to four and we have won them all.

 

[dylan the villian]

never been to a game and seen us beat the knights....18-0 last two games haha
