Round 25 Discussion

[Jedhead]

The eels lie down indeed.

 

[Accept]

Hmm..... Minor Premiers but we're outclassed on their own turf last weekend. It's going to be an interesting September.

 

[Dexter]

I had $100 on the chooks at $6 to win the minor premiership before rnd .
Time for a shower after cheering them on.

How's the commentators pretty much ignoring that cannon ball tackle from latrell. They didn't even show a replay of it after the penalty was blown but to me it looked really really nasty to the point I'd imagine the match review committee would pick it up. But because he's everyones favourite and the commentators new pin up boy it gets ignored. Guarenteed if that was moose or someone they'd be blowing up.

Anyone else hoping the Sharks win by 100 points so the NRL have to take the minor premiership shield off the Roosters?
I hope they do.

this would be funny as ...

on another note if the Sharks lose by 27 and we win by 33 then we leap frog them into 4th :P and then the look on Rothfields face would be priceless

That would be great. However, the highest margin in NRL history is 91-6 (St G over Canterbury 1935) so I think they are safe. In the modern era Parra beat Cronulla 74-4 in 2003.

Haha, was that the game where the Sharkies had like a thousand blokes sent off/sin binned?

 

[Broncs_Fan]

So it looks like it will be a 45k plus crowd today?

We also beat Newcastle 71-6 back in 06.

I just want to see the Roosters having to hand back the shield. Miracles happen. Bring on 100 points.

Or the Sharks lose by 60 and we win.

So I either want the Sharks to win by 100 or lose by 60.

Easily. I came early to watch the girls and there are people everywhere in the city/Milton area

2007

2007

That was such an exciting time, felt like that season could be anything again afterwards. Or at least it should have felt like that, I can't remember now.

And then injury shit started to happen soon after. Hodges for a long time, Hunt, Berrigan, Tate, Lockyer. Possibly others?
