I thought Timoko's early retreating last week really stuffed their right side defense. Will be interesting to see how they go tonight.

I have a feeling they will still be stuffed from last week, Sharks may win this. No matter who wins I think the Storm will win next week

Strange is a huge out, they may opt for a forward grind and see who comes out the other side. Mentally, a big ask after seemingly winning it twice, then losing after Hunts FG sliding of the inside post for the win.

His defence is very poor - I worry this will be his achilles heel at manly and he won’t do well for us.

Hmm yes his one on one defence doesn't seem great, but Dce's edge/ reads in defence have been costing us for years!

He’s going to be our whipping boy next year, isn’t he?

He was preordained as our new whipping boy weeks ago. I am sure we have a few posters flagellating themselves at the moment in anticipation.

Oh and I forgot Seibold!!

Sorry if I missed anyone!

I'm just glad Fogarty is getting it out of his system before he joins us

 

[TheSoaringEagle2023]

As long as Walsh develops, Im not too worried about how they go in the finals as long as they hover around the 8. I still think Fog will be a decent signing.

Why wait for next year?

Agree his defence seems suspect but he was not the reason Canberra lost tonight

 

[Ohgeez]

Tough night without a genuine 6 to help him out in attack. Starling stepped up but Weekes was quite as a mouse when they needed him most.

 

[maxta]

Cronulla played for errors and moments- which is WHY they are a threat.
Felt Canberra in open play looked better in open play , but Sharks made the game a bludger who will cash in on those "moments" and the more fancy teams will be scared about this fact - with good reason

we need Brooks to step up and make an impact next year. He has been quiet next to DCE but think Fogarty will need him to make more of an impact if we are to improve on this season

pardon my lack of knowledge but are there any #7 playing at the moment that has a rock solid defence? Nico Hines? or Mitch Moses?

Seems like some can’t contain themselves and have started this year.

 

[Andyvb88]

He likes to give the edges early ball and space, which suits our style. Weekes is not a weapon out the back like Tom turbo. Tom, schmole and koula will thrive under the early ball.

No player is above criticism. He’s not a whipping boy or being ‘bagged’ because people want to discuss his game. Every NRL match is met with healthy debate from commentators and fans pertaining to the quality of a player’s performance.

The last two weeks, Fogarty has had his issues; the commentators around the game seem to think as much too. I’m not going to pull back on an honest appraisal of his performance because a few of us have our hopes up for next season.

I hope he kills it next year but I’m going to call a spade a spade regardless. There’s nothing unfair about that.

Nah, we have a cast of thousands of whipping boy, he'll also have Seibold for cover.....

And it's not even the off season yet 😕
