    The Silvertail's optimism pulse 2025.

    Six rounds in and it's deja vu all over again. Three wins, three losses, no signs of improvement anywhere. Tommy's injured, Cherry's checked out, forwards are bog average, and we have the strength and resilience of a soggy cardboard box. If you can see sunshine and rainbows in that (No! Not...

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    No comment on Burbo, but Keppie is doing Keppie things at Souths. For every good run or strong tackle there's a brain explosion that ends up costing his team. Case in point, high shot on Drinkwater, 10 in the bin, penalty right in front. That's the Keppie we all know and love.

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    I mean, sure - he won four premierships on the trot. But what the f**k has he done lately?

    Post-Game Discussion Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    I wondered about that, too. But we didn't deserve to pull that game out of our arse so it didn't really bother me.

    [Resurrected] what the f**k is wrong with our club

    There's a lot of hate in your heart, Soup. Rugby league is built on hatred, of course, but usually it's for every team other than your own. Still, take the hatred away and it's hard to argue you are not factually correct.

    MVP: Rd 6 v Sharks

    3. Haumole. Still a beast, even with a bung arm/shoulder. 2. Faulalo. Two fantastic finishes even if they only resulted in one try. Solid game all around. 1. L'il Hoppa. I thought Garrick had a strong game as well, and Brooks was good in the second half.

    Post-Game Discussion Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    Agree. The scoreline flattered us, really. Cronulla weren't very good but we were worse. The end.

    Game Day: Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    Yeah, Cherry stopping still and pointing helps nobody. Garrick didn't have much option there.

    Game Day: Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    F**k this is a frustrating team to support. They were showing more than I expected and then they go and concede two tries right at the end of the half. Once we let one in, another was sure to follow. But the bigger disappointment was our failure to do anything with the ball in attacking...

    Seibold Ball

    Oh, thank @God. Seibold says they know where they went wrong against the Storm and are ready to put that loss in the past. I look forward to seeing those "work-ons" and "learnings" in action against the Sharks. Maybe we can start with tackling like we mean it…

    Pre-Game Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    Yeah, rugby league is a tough sport, and you need to be tough to play it. And the fact that Tommy keeps getting back up after every injury and every extended period of rehab to go again shows just how tough he really is. Most of us would have chosen a different profession a long time ago.

    NRL Games [Round 6, 2025]

    They've certainly taken our defensive model. Their defence out wide is atrocious. They've lost control of the ruck. As a result, they look like we do: always on the back foot, always hanging on for dear life.

    Lack of Mobility in the pack stood out

    Yeah, Paseka is a bit like Turbo: with a permanent asterisk reading "If available". Can be great, but is rarely available.

    Lack of Mobility in the pack stood out

    Combine that lack of agility with a lack of aggression and we are in serious trouble. We have a total of two forwards other teams might like to have: Haumole and Bully. As much as I love Jake, he's at the end of his career, and no other team is taking him on the coin we're paying. But his...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Scott Penn might think we have a top four squad, but really, we only have one forward who strikes fear into opposition packs (Haumole) and a handful of others who would struggle to strike mild concern into anyone on a good day. Our forwards just aren't good enough. That said, no matter who our...

    Massive turning point today

    Same as it ever was, maxta. If we have all the ball and everything goes our way, we look great. There's no doubting our attacking ability - even tonight we scored some cracking tries. But we simply do not know what to do without the ball. We just cannot defend, or cope with any form of...

    Burbo to lock?

    And Saab goes down with a leg injury, right on cue… Given his history, I'm guessing he'll miss a few weeks. Not sure what that will mean for the backs. Maybe Schoupp (a-doop-a-doop-a-doop) comes into the side at centre and pushes Garrick or Koula onto the wing.

    Burbo to lock?

    I think Waddell might miss a week or two for that high shot he got placed on report for. Should mean an opportunity for Navale.
