What a great forward pack and bench. Shame about Pomeroy still being there, lucky his butt got covered on several occasions on the weekend, made him look clearly better than he is...

 

[Jaz]

Great to see Gal back, just Lewie and Ryan to come now. Then we can move Feki to centre, drop the Pom and we're looking good for the finals.

We $2.75, reckon this may drift out further given the Warriors Hype, all good for us this pressure on them.Hope its a massive crowd and rains.

Come on now, we all know the pom won't get dropped.

If he does get dropped I hope its in the Tasman sea about half way to Auckland..

Good post sup42. Interesting about your right side, without looking at the stats you could probably say the same thing about our right side with Pommeroy and Carney defending next to each other.

Cheers hardbishop.
That's intersting , Hurrell I'm guessing will be used by Elliot to target those two players.

Elliot uses Dominique Peroux off the bench to sub in for Hurrell ( very odd since Peroux is effectively an outside back using up a bench spot ) it works really well in terms of Peroux shutting that side of the feild down.

When you see Peroux run on that's why.

Do the Sharks ever rejig the right side defensive combinations during the game to plug that weakness ?

No, I think our coaching staff just hope that the weakness will magically fix itself.

Hurrell will see plenty of traffis coming his way.

His poor decision making is well known among the coaches in the NRL.

Coach Elliott knows it too , thus his stint in the reggies.

Coach Elliott is prepared to risk it for the power plays that Hurrell provides.

Risk v Reward.

Indeed. I haven't looked at the Stats for last week but the Roosters /Broncos/ Manly/ etc ran 20 hit ups at Hurrell per game....Hurrell made outstanding stats in those games.
Tigers then Storm respectively got a brace of Tries straight through Hurrells corridor.

Personally I don't like players who score two let in two.

I imagine Pomelroy and Carney have 'on' games with their tackling then 'off' games.

I guess the club who's right side D aims up.....goes a long way toward winning it.....no shortage of attacking prowess

I would be surprised if Gal plays.

Before the game last Sunday he was throwing some passes, look a bit tender on his feet (injury)

Any chance of lewis being fit for this game?

Love to see Feki get a crack at centre, that's were he lived at the Warriors. Lewis and Ryan back when we hit Knights and the Dragons would help pick up momentum

Just picked this up off the Warriors forum. Not cool. Hope we kick their butts

I reckon a huge hypodermic needle with sharks written down the side would be awesome. I couldn't make one worth a dam tho. Maybe some art school grad out there.....​

Alright. Keep an eye out for the South Stand. We'll see what we can do

Who cares.
