You have to remember that most of them are all mates so you can understand how they can be all good still after a game. They will be hurting hut it's not going to ruin a friendship

I wasn't able to watch the game, I did however, have live updates on my phone. It sounds like it was a typical sharks turn of events.

Forget the refs, they did not lose us the game. Forget Gidley, his punches and not being sin binned did not lose us the game.

Two words lost us this game. BALL CONTROL.

it is that simple. There were 7 or 8 times where we coughed up the pill for no reason. Not good enough.
With four minutes to go and leading 14-12, I almost turned to Everton Shark and said, "If we gat away with this, we do not deserve it."
Something made me not say it, probably that little voice inside of me that knows no matter the players we have, no matter the year, we always seem to know how to lose a game.

We cannot dish that up against the a dragons next week and expect to win.

I'm actually watching the cricket at the moment and Chris Rogers is trying everything he can to not get his century. Has been stuck on 96 for some time now.

Got his century thank god.

haha. took his ****en sweet time though.
im not sure on ball control. both sides coughed up a lot of pill and im assuming it was pretty damp out there. id still say our attack let us down, as we had ample opportunities, and rarely troubled their defense. either way, ****e result, and I think flanno needs to make some changes, or nothing changes for us.

Agree with you but dropped ball killed us I reckon.

Only in England. Just gone off for bad light and I could see plenty of blue sky.

just heard the interview with rogers. very humble, what a champ. gave broad credit for a good spell, thanked his folks and team-mates, no ego at all. great stuff.

Am I the only 1 that gets annoyed when the players are all smiles with the opposition after a game. Us fans are sitting up in the stands devastated and look down and see the players looking like the result don't bother them.

Nope. Ive said it many times myself. And personally after a loss I was ****ing ropable. Straight to the shower, dressed then straight home

Looking forward to Beau returning and surely Nathan Gardner must be worth a spot somewhere
to give us something extra in attack. For some reason kicking to the opposition's winger on the full
isn't raining tries for us.
