For someone who can't see the game, why was it soft? Who is doing all these bad kicks?

Ava threw his arms out the sharks player bounced off ran over the line, ava went in for a second dig couldnt hold him up. lazy effort

Karma for the Sharks tbh. Taupau should have been penalised in the play the ball before that.

Just saw nofo was placed on report for a bite on Graham?!

Great great defence!

yep bit him on the side of the face…he is in trouble

 

[MacDougall]

He wasn't put on report on the field?

Those of you supporting Chris Lawrence, we're 10 minutes into this game against the sharks and he's missed one easy 1 on 1 tackle and then made a regulation knock on in an attacking position.

He'll make more missed tackles cause his defense is poor and makes too many errors!

You guys have no idea if you think he has good defense. It's more like a turnstile. And his attack? Still as stiff as a wooden plank!

Paterson is so good and so bad at the same time. Always looks dangerous but always stuffs up.

10-8 half time, we're a little patchy

You sure the possible bite was put on report? I thought Gallen told graham to walk away. & I certainly didn;t see the ref say it was on report. Normally if a bite is going on report a second official is called in and they look for bite marks.
I think the commentator's were the only ones carrying on about 'we'll see more about this'.
I don;t think anything will come of it.

 

[MacDougall]

I don't even think he bit him. I think if anything Graham was giving Noffa the head to the face treatment after tackling him and caused it to happen himself.

Hasnt been involved much but when he has its been so average its not funny. He needs to join the sharks and fast. Not only has he lost his pace he has also lost the ability to catch. Great player when he was 18 not so much now…....next please.

Back in the good old days, if a player was bit there would be bite marks. Bite marks aren't really something that you can hide.

yep, graham gave himself beard rash (probably not the first time) and tried to cry a river over it.

Not impressed much by that first half effort, they will get us if we dont pick up our D

Anyone else think Galloway is a very lazy defender? He doesn't seem to make a whole lot of effort when he tackles or to get back in the line.

Did he kick your dog or something? wtf?

First half assessment:

Our direction and attack has improved;
Defence around the ruck is lacking energy and this is where Cronulla are making their metres. It's an arm wrestle, but we're capable of winning the ruck and the game if we lift our energy.
