Shut the gate

[egg]

Saw that Drinkwater try saving tackle on an athlete Cobbo tonight .
As a young tucker at Shark Park in the OLDER days , there were a few players that when they saw daylight , you comfortably thought shut the gate , they're in .
Steve Rogers and Matty Rogers , ET , David Waite , who else ?

It feel a really bit sad with our team at present , wont happen as they all could be run down , who else in the last 10 years wearing Sharks colours was shut the gate , Perhaps Ben Barba , anyone else ?

Val and Xerri

The Whippet Brett Howland comes to mind. Bloody Xerri could have been anything by now.

There's been a few shut the gate moments already this year where we have made clean breaks and should have scored (Katoa cones to mind)

What makes it worse is that we often tend to lose the ball when we are brought down from behind.

 

[SF]

Mat Rieck. Maybe Darren Albert, Nathan Gardner and Nick Youngquest.

Stonestreet and Ison could bring some future speed.

PS I never knew David Waite was a speedster. Only remember his as an old coach

Brett Howland comes to mind, I loved that bloke. Was devastated we had to cut him for salary cap reasons.
