Broncos making us look like real chumps at the moment.

Nico has a few defensive issues, let in last 2 tries

 

[Smokin Joe]

Looks like the Sharks put the cue in the rack at halftime again.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Broncos making us look like real chumps at the moment.

Or they looked at our second half as a template on how to deal with the Dame Joans.

 

[Rackets]

We've had the wood on the gummies forever and get flogged in the first 40 by one man and a week later this same team is losing to the hapless broncs. Just doesn't make sense.

 

[The Wheel]

Why didn’t sharks play like this last week

You can’t win them all.

 

[Kalvin]

Let's be honest.. if Harper didn't play last week, we don't get flogged in the first half and talakai isn't hailed as the messiah!

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Why didn’t sharks play like this last week

Yes.

Maybe the Dame Joans were up last week because they were due for one of their ‘occasionals’ against MWSE.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

I thought the Sharks looked a little brittle up the middle on occasion in the first half last week but we just didn't get sufficient ball to exploit it. We turned that around second half.

 

[Dan]

Is it just me, or does Thurston commentating, sound like Kianu Reeves acting in speed?

 

[mickqld]

Why didn’t sharks play like this last week

They did. We just played a completely unfit player that cost us any chance.

 

[mickqld]

Hahaha yes, yes , yes I was trying to think where I've heard that voice before. Nailed it @Dan

 

[dowdz]

What the hell was that penalty for?

 

[mickqld]

Talakai isn't the messiah. I could've run through that sh*t defense last week.

 

[HoldenV8]

Staggs is doing to Talakai what Koula did to him in the 2nd half last week. Up in his face and giving him no room to move. And shock horror, Talakai has been quiet.

Last week I think Harper thought his and Saab's greater pace would be able to cover it. But I think he forgot that a big, fastish guy like Talakai is hard to stop when wound up. Koula didn't let him get wound up and neither has Staggs tonight.

 

[Dan]

Hahaha yes, yes , yes I was trying to think where I've heard that voice before. Nailed it @Dan

Could have been point break too, wherever it had the same over acting intensity

 

[The Insomniac]

Why didn’t sharks play like this last week

Brilliant tactical ploy by Dessie. Let them run themselves into oblivion by not tackling at all.
Since half time last week the Gummies are down 9 to 38. Unfortunately for Des games don't go for 160 minutes. You are ahead of your time Dessie.

Why didn’t sharks play like this last week

They did. The opposition mindset differed
