Wow. Absolutely amazing win. They played so hard all night. Great defense and nice to see the points coming now in attack.
Didnt expect us to win any of the last 3, but am now believing we can the finals a good shake.
If we can win 3 of our last 4 we make the 4, as I think souths will have to drop some of theirs. If we win 2 then still a good chance.

Go you sharkies!!!

Didnt see much of the game, maybe the last 20 minutes or so. I turned it on the tackle before Beale scored.

Stoked on the win, pretty much wraps up a finals berth, now just improve that position

Yeah I have no issue at all with what Gallen said, but I think you blokes are right, they will talk it up in newspaper articles now.

Definitely glad we got the win, I will say I would of liked to of seen a replay of the two penalties against us for stripping the ball? In the second half. Two back-to-back penalties.

End of the day, always nice to get one over the Cows, and Thurston.

First one was questionable second lost the ball from what I could see, it was a square up cant have them not scoring.

A dropkick grubber should always be a knock on IMO.

The only reason for a dropkick in general play is a field goal, which means the ball has to go off the ground. There is no logical reason to allow a knock on like that and call it a dropkick. Its bull****. Even if he was going for a field goal I would call that a knock on. He ****ed up.

Especially when your foot scrapes over the top! Swing and a miss every day of the week

Cheers, mate. I had a feeling it was a bit of a square up. Coupled with there were no replays of it to actually show the viewer what happened.

Voss is a fully paid member of the Cowboys.

He used to show no bias, he tried hard to hide it, but these days he shows clear alliance to NQ (his team) and NZ (who gave him a job after Ch 9 boned him)

He didn't miss it though. He dropped it and kicked it, albeit very poorly.

As far as I'm concerned we handed it to the Cows, but I do find the decision intriguing.

He scrapped the ball with the bottom of his boots. Clear as day

The Biased commentary seems to be getting worse, or I just hold a grudge and remember these **** calls

its one of those grey areas in the game that kick.

You could argue all night (from cows perspective) it was a crap drop kick. And the rule for a drop goal is if it misses its play on.

I guess its the same as when a player knocks the ball on with his head or chest then runs through and grounds it. Cant call it a knock on but the decision still stinks.

Well done boys - didn't think we did much wrong tonight.

Glad to see Beale get his meat pie. He deserved it.

Gotta give kudos to Prior as well. His defence was outstanding. He was moving up quickly and got in the face of Cowboys - drove them backwards too.

Voss never used to have a problem. Most of his Ch 9 career he showed no bias. Then he dropped the ball and mentioned he was a NQ member. After that it went downhill.

You are delusional. The win was down to Ennis' kicking game and great defence, thereby keeping Thurston off our line in the first half.

Robbo is a liability.

As for Flanno, most expensive coach in the NRL, I'll give him that.
