Round 18 Cronulla Sutherland Sharks v St George Illawara Dragons Sunday 12th July 2015 4:00pm @ Remondis

[sharks2010]

Queens well on top. We're in big trouble.

But I wasn't lying. They WERE getting on top, we WERE in trouble. We did well to hold them out and get the momentum back.

so, just because they were getting on top doesn't mean we were in BIG trouble, our defence was still good the whole time and all we had to do was start completing some sets to regain the momentum, which we did

Watching the way they were marching down the field, we were in trouble. We did a great job to get out of it.

 

[Greg86]

Cold to blame for the 12000? What was it like at ground?

Freezing. Not an excuse though, it's a derby. Anything under 15,000 is an absolute embarrassment.

shorts, singlet and thongs weather

Did the club make it successful day for kids and families?

 

[sharks2010]

Tbh I thought the crowd was more then 13k, it's hard to pick it these days, I've see that crowd given 17-18k and a crowd smaller then today's 15k

I honestly thought there was 16-17k there

In what way? They were allowed on the field after the game if that's what you mean.

 

[evertonshark]

Yeah seemed like a way bigger crowd than what was announced.

Yeah, just an effort to make it special I suppose. Entertaining kids in between games etc.

Nothing different then what usually happens on game day.

Me too. The stands look pretty full. The family hill probably had a few spots open. I was as surprised as anyone at the announced attendance.

no way they could fit another 9k in that ground today

Would of been a tight sqeeze. Maybe family hill was a lot less crowded then it looked, that's the only thing I can think of.

 

[Tank]

We won. Who cares if they had a few out. We did what were supposed to do. Can't remember many people taking pity on us last year with a heap out. Suck a dick St Merge. Another good week at work coming up for me. Mary McGregor the honeymoon is over!

 

[djhabib]

Who's everyone's MOM? I have Wade taking it today

Andrew fifita easily. Obviously hates the place.

 

[snowman]

Hard to split Lewy or Fifita, although Ennis and Bird upsetting everyone is worth a mention.

 

[gando2230]

Approx 12,000 crowd seemed about right.
You know it's cold when the coffee line is longer the beer line.

 

[mattaus]

Great to see Fafita actually running onto the ball and bending the line. Thought boogs and taga has some good impact off the bench as well.

Can't wait to trot out this team with a proper halves pairing next year.

 

[Tank]

Thought Bakuya was great on his edge in 2nd half today.
