Round 2 2015: Cronulla Sharks v Brisbane Broncos Friday 13 March @ 8:35pm @ Remondis Stadium

A sharks fan who turns up to games or is a paying member or is just proud to admit they are a sharks fan is a true fan.

As per definition a fan is "a person who has a strong interest in or admiration for a particular person or thing.

Usually when you have a strong interest in something you also have your own opinions about said thing.

Sometimes people on here are negative but guess what they are allowed to be - freedom of speech and all that. Doesn't mean they don't feel love for the club just means they don't like a person/s.

I know I have disliked a few players and coaches over the years because they did not (in my eyes) add anything by their presence but I have never stopped loving the black white and blue.

As a paying member I think I deserve the right to whinge about the club

And as a freeloader ill whinge to you about it

Nup, I would think that if you support Sharks, you support the club, team, players, coach etc. Some guys just look to bag out any chance they get & this is nearly a pissing comp between some members here.

All summer it's been, here's the team Flanno will pick & here's the team that I would pick so Flanno must know stuff all. Then the style of play etc. But when dudes suggest that Feki play centre for eg, they know more than Flanno. Gotme?

Actually no, it's a forum for people to simply state their opinions. Doesn't matter if they're right or wrong.

[skeksis]

Brown's been named FMD

 

[skeksis]

Is Bird on the **** list or what?

 

[Paul C]

Just saw the same 13 named again. Definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Flanno will never be any good for us.

 

[BlackWhiteBlue]

Thought lewis and gagan were gunna be back this week. Has flanno just copy pasted as much as he could to put a team out?

 

[evertonshark]

Brown's been named FMD

Not surprised at all. Zero chance val gets a late call up either.

 

[Thresher]

Re-signing Mitch Brown was a dark day.

Flanno gives his first chosen 2 years minimum before the benefit of the doubt is withdrawn.

 

[Nicholas2230]

What is the point of these 18 & 19 man benches? Why is Bird no longer on the extended bench? Flanno is a fool. We need some spark and class and mitch brown isn't it, ive said it numerous times on this forum he is J Wright 2.0 in every aspect especially the fact that flanno thinks he should be there even though every sharks fan is scratching their head.

 

[sharks2010]

I expected as much, but I'll wait to Friday night to see what team actually runs out before I start the criticism

 

[Nicholas2230]

thats what I said to myself about sunday.... Wasn't someone on here saying prior was injured? Still doesnt explain the emmission of bird on the extended bench and the inclusion of Sauiluma. Just bizarre coaching.

 

[19ninety9]

well that was obviously going to happen.

 

[Matty C of the Shire]

Sami has been impressive in the nines. Would like him to have a crack at Browns or Ricky's spot

 

[snowman]

Ayshford was the best back at the 9's. Dumb post

 

[Wilson]

Ayshford was the best back at the 9's. Dumb post

Any post that uses the 9's tournament for a basis of selection should be instantly banned.

 

[Gards]

Im only going cause i was promised the wang. Then some chinese after.

Still funny, even if I heard this 5 times on Sunday

Being a supporter of the club does not change because we also criticise it

I lost my **** like never before the other night after the game and I won't apologise for it, I snapped, I asked myself what is the point? I had enough. And as of today I have still had enough

There are no excuses left and I no longer believe that change is coming under our current Coach. The years of benefit of the doubt I gave him ended on Sunday night.

The way our football team is conducted is a disgrace to the Sharks I know and will still love until my last day on earth

I will still get out to the games I can and cheer them on, I will still spend my hard earned money on the club and I will still speak up that what the team gives back isn't good enough

 

[Bizzy029]

That team will get the crowd rolling in.... FMD!!

 

[CHOGM]

I think not dropping brown makes sense. If you pick a guy and drop him after one game it sends a bad message. This way no one is a scapegoat so the whole team knows they're on notice after round 1.

Remember a young guy like Holmes may not have a full season of first grade in him. So do you want him firing come the finals or possibly running out of puff? Same goes for Bird. Pick them 8-10 rounds in if we aren't going so well, or if we are then we don't need them yet anyway.
