tupou doesnt have heart for the sharks
barrett either
snowden and gallen in my view are the top players so far and i would be disappointed if snowden doesnt get rep call but yet we need him on the field for us.
i wouldnt be upset or surprised if kelly gets called on for penrith game and stapo moved to centers. tautai would have to go. barrett seriously i dont know, hes just lost all passion.
I would pick this team
1.Kelly/Stapleton
2.Ferguson
3.Collis
4.Stapleton/Pomeroy
5.Gordon
6.Barrett <-------PASSIONLESS DRAGON WHO SHOULD BE REPLACED BY SCOTT ****ING PORTER
7.Smith
8.Snowden
9.Aiton (should of always been starting hooker)
10.Vave
11.Douglas
12.Tupou
13.Gallen <--------------------CAPTAIN
14.Bukuya (comes back round 10)
15.Wright
16.Millington
17.Flanagan
gallen proves each and every game that he is THE REAL ****ING CAPTAIN OF THE SHARKS DAMMIT STUART!
not some washed up exdraggie
btw Porter can play 5/8, that what hes NSW cup coach said.
you can disagree but i mean no harshness or disrespect. im just fed up with no results.
agree^^ and dropping millo to the bench IMO he deserves a starting spot more then topou
I agree with you there mate, he was useless when they went down his side.
I'd love to see fergo have a run at fullback he had a tough night last night marking morris but he'll learn from it. But i would love hn to have a crack at fullback though
Why would you drop one of our best this year? Morris hasn't played one bad game for us...
Guys and girls, I know last nights game was a shocker, I was pretty depressed by the display we put in, but we have to get over it and move on.
There's not much point playing the blame game at this stage, the team we've got is what we've got. Same goes for the coach.
The main thing to remember is that we supporters whether we win or lose. I was equally devastated after the game against the Bronco's but remember, we came back and put a good win on against the Knights.
The Dragons played almost perfect football for the first sixty minutes or so last night and with a big leg up from the refereeing, kept us out of the game. Everything that could go their way did so and we did ourselves no favours by putting our heads down and forgetting to concentrate on the basics.
There are some positives still to be gleaned from last nights disaster; Vave showed he is a future star, Snowden seems to get stronger each game and Gallen never, ever gives in. If only some of the other boys had his heart!
We just have to write that one off, turn around and start afresh against the Panthers after the bye. I think we can put in another display like we did against the Knights and score another win.
Hope to see a big crowd turn out and support the Club, we can only improve after last nights game!
Fergo's one of our worst defenders. He basically added nothing to last night game. He hasn't really done anything since the eels game.
My question is, why would you drop anyone for Pomeroy?
Rubbish. He has got zero confidence with the ball & no idea in defence. Baring injury, he will be in reserve grade.Pommeroy..... I thought that he was playing really well up until he got injured and with Collis he can do heaps of damage in attack, also his ball handling and positional play have improved this year.
Rubbish. He has got zero confidence with the ball & no idea in defence. Baring injury, he will be in reserve grade.
Cronulla's whole back line against Saints was terrible. There was no communication, confidence or trust in defence. Some guys will improve with experience but Sharks need to start thinking about buying a quality 5/8 & a centre for 2011.
To have 4 rep teams announced & Sharks managed 2 players from 68 shows where our line up is.
