Round 4, 2012 NRL: Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks v North Queensland Cowboys @ Dairy Farmers Stadium, Saturday March 24, 8:30pm

My favourote part of the game was when Gal had 5 hit ups in one set and resulted in a game changing try (well maybe not quite 5 but 3 is close enough ) OR

Pom's massive belly to back suplex causing the turnover!

NOTHING COMPARES TO A SHARKS WIN!

I think our blokes definitely deserved the win. Gardner off, plenty of chances for the Cowboys on our line, a try disallowed and up in NQ.

A very good win. Simply couldn't ask for more against one of the more talented and in-form teams in the competition.

How big will Easter Saturday be against the Saints if we can beat Penrith next weekend. Huge night at the footy!

I would love to know the stats for tackled inside the 20 for the second half

 

[JakeTheSnake]

I really hope we dont have sweat it out for the rest of the season, 2 guts wins under our belt and many more to come.. Hopefully after Panthers easy flogging of Parra they wont be ready..

Gallen, as always, solid.. He needs to go off even if it is for 10 minutes, the last thing we want is for him to burn out, he still has to go through the Kangaroo game (April 20) then 3 games of Origin.. then the finals (thats right, top 8 for sure this year). Its starting to smell like '08..

The good thing is, Carney is yet to fire, once he does.. nothing will stop us, him and Robson are working really well together!

Best....... really.. how can someone go from being fairly solid to the worst player i have seen in a long time. Albeit its only 1 game but he made more mistakes than Pomeroy, hahaha, and thats saying something!!!.. If he doesnt pull up his socks he is going to get demolished by Tighe... Prove me wrong Best!!!!!!!!!

Thank god (Gallen) for this forum, or i would have to actually work while i sit at my computer for 8 hrs!

 

[sharks2010]

just streamed the first half at work.... eek we were very lucky and unlucky

* morris try was a try, its the same ruling in the dragons game
* mills and williams have no urgency in defending kicks
* fifita had alot of fire in his belly
* jeremy smith is hands down the best ruck defender in the game
* if ever there was a game where someone should be dropped, its colin best. WOW
* ross out played matt scott in the first half

overall, we were very lucky and unlucky in patches. nothing to right home about.

then why didn't you give him the 1 point in your 3-2-1 instead of leaving it blank

 

[snowman]

i actually thought i clicked on him for the 2 points

Haha all good. I was stuck on who to pick for the 1 between Pom and degwah. Most people will concede that gal and smith were our best two players

 

[A.Snowden]

Without that defence from Gal and J.Smith, we don't win that game, simple.

 

[snowman]

yeh i had

3 gal
2 smith
1 pom

i just probably didnt click it right. oh well, hopefully it can be fixed up

Agree 100% A.S, throw in De Gois as well in the mix and we have ourself a solid middle defence.

Agreed a.s especially gal he made some try saving tackles on his own

That try saver on Thompson was a beauty!

 

[Mark^Bastard]

Gal and Jez were by far the best. I picked Poms as the third best. Him forcing their turnovers with big defense was awesome.

 

[sharks2010]

Oh and for anyone who watches the replay. After the siren went gal went of at degwah think it was because of the way in which he kicked the ball out. Did anyone happen to see this??

Cant say i did, i was to busy hi-5ing everyone within a 5 metre radias!!! hahaha What happened?

 

[sharks2010]

Said something to him while pointing up the field. I noticed it watching the replay last night. It's amazing how much you pick up watching the replay stress free

 

[DeathMoth]

Who's in here saying to take Gal off even if it's just for 10?

Rubbish. Hold onto the ball more and get repeat sets that way he doesn't need to work as hard in defense. Either way, he can handle it. "we don't wanna burn him out"....that's pussy talk, for pussies. Gal isn't a pussy.

 

[SharkShocked]

Probably only because Thurston was looking to try and put his foot on it, toe it ahead and keep it in play.

1/10000000 chance that would usually come off against us.

Even watching a replay knowing we won is still stressful! Makes you realise how many opportunities we had and didnt capitalize on..
