Round 6 2015 Cronulla Sutherland Sharks vs Newcastle Knights Friday 10th April 2015, 7.35 pm @ Remondis

Feels so good to be smiling after we play for 2 weeks in a row!:cheers

This time in 2013 We were 3 wins 3 Losses. By the time we had our first bye in round 12, we were 7 Wins 4 losses. Our first bye this season is in round 11, and with four losses already we'd need to win the next 5 games in a row (Bunnies, Panthers, Warriors, Titans, and Dragons after the bye) to equal the form of that year. Do you guys think we can do it? Consider that we'll be likely missing both fifitas for a few weeks and there's a chance Ennis might be out due to carry-over points.

Depending on injuries & suspensions to other teams I reckon we can at least beat the Rabbits next week, Penrith & Warriors it's 50/50 at this stage then Titans we can beat them if we play like the way we have been playing the last 2 weeks.

I was thinking I have found the draw this year funnily worked out, come before the bye we will have already played the Titans twice with teams like the Cowboys & Bulldogs not even once yet. We dont even play the Dogs for the first time until Rd 20.

2013 we won 2 from our first 7. Titans and warriors. Lost to souths dragons eels manly dogs.

So as it sits we are in the same position

 

[stormshark]

Anyone know if a replay on today pl?

 

[Super Impose]

Three options at the moment.

Either re-sign Robson, debut Murphy or sign Albert Kelly.

Townsend is also in the mix.

 

[Gards]

Strangely we thew the ball around better than what we usually do when it's dry

Seems someone stuffed up. We had 3 points, now we have 5.

yea that whole NRL ladder is screwed up with wrong amount of games played ect and it's not just our numbers, I thought the NRL changed the points system or something

disagree, his kicking was disgraceful again, was unlucky with one of the grubbers, barba was steaming through but was ****ed over by the ball hitting the goal post

yet we seem to be getting try's off his kicks game after game lately. Sure his long kicking sucks but that is nothing new and it is a good thing those around him have been stepping up. He's an average player with little to no vision but he is still contributing out there. Plays within his abilities and let's those around him do their jobs.

I'm sure I will get abused for saying such a blasphemes thing though

I think we are in with a realistic chance to win alls those.
Souths have injury concerns (but so will we and suspension issues by the looks) so this is winnable (50/50)
We play well against the Pennies so another good chance of favourable result.
Warriors is definitely a good chance based on our current form and a home game for us. Warriors don't travel well.
Tits. If we don't win this I'd be very disappointed.
Dragons. Again another game we should win if we play like we have over the past 2 weeks but sometimes we struggle in games we are expected to do well in.

I'd take 3-4 wins which gets us to or near to 50% ratio for first half of the season and can then push for finals birth in 2nd half of the season (which would be a good result after our start).
But 5 from 5 is more favourable and is achievable (with some luck).

It would be interesting to see how robson compares stafistically to other halves in the comp. Anyone know how this can done?

Sorry BWB yep you're right, rookie error on my part! So we're almost at the same w/l ratio, but our PD is slightly worse.

 

[snowman]

Our PD is way better at this point

 

[Western Sharkie]

I'd like to thank the boys for winning the 2 games either side of my birthday. I didn't think that was going to be the case after the first 4 rounds.
Need to piece some coin together to get to a Home game and bring the boy!

[skeksis]

oh. I must be looking at something weird - Could have sworn we were -4 after round 6 in 2013 but we're -8 on nrl.com at the moment :S

Our pd is about 8 now isnt it?

We lost by more than 8 a few times in the start of 2013. It was probably close to 50 (minus)

Indeed you are correct. Apologies but i thought our start was worse

 

[Napolean]

Whats the go with boq on flannos polo and the caps on the table?? New sponsor? new FOJ?

I hope so-They're my bank-it'd make banking a whole lot more enjoyable. I know that they are trying to move away from 'Bank of Queensland', hence the BOQ. This is probably a good move to try and shake that ideology, by sponsoring a NSW team.
