Quite agree.Although our MPG was ok til last 2 min. Think bottom team replaced by top of Champ is only fair way ?

I hope you enjoyed it craigey. Good to see all of those local lads run one of the best teams in the world so close eh?

How is winning a comp where most of the teams are part time in any way comparable to finishing bottom of SL? As bad as the middle 8's and the MPG are, they're better than straight up and down and at least give the teams involved 7 games to show their worth

Well I did indeed find it enjoyable this morning. Bright future for FC

And FC don’t? Your trolling would put you amongst that number.

Well the sharks did the city proud on the other side of the world on their little tour.
P2 W0 D0 L2. Pointless.

How was I trolling?
It's you lot keep bringing up FC, the thread was about your game vs. Cats. You won, good on you but it was scrappy. Commenting on topic is not trolling

I know you lot like living in the past, but news flash, Sharks don't exist

St George didn't have to get out of first gear.It was what it was. Kelly wants out pretty badly on that showing.Last years 3 games were serious contests .St George treat that as a training session yet still won 5 tries to 3. Could spin it either way but the next month for you guys will be very telling.Could make or break season? So net result of Aus junket for "the Immortals" zero SL points beat in an exbo by a NRL 3rd string.Finacial loss and a few injuries and half of Boothferry inbreds have got sloshed and sung their daft song.Well done

Using that logic then neither do Hull FC est 1865.
Well done in recognising this whilst wearing your Jackets with 150 years proudly emblazoned

The same applies for literally every team.....

Can't argue with that. Just leeds and particularly yourself and Wigan have done something that hasn't been done before.May not manifest in the first game back but you would expect some weariness after the whole experience? Wigan look weary at present but Sydneys reserve team look slick. Lots of size in that team.One thing I will say is this last few week iv enjoyed seeing so many games shown.

it's a fair point, I think we will be undoubtedly weary, not expecting much from the Cas game next sat, so anything we could get would be a bonus

Tell me. I've been trying to get one of those shirts you all so proudly wore. You know the one with the little blue cartoon shark on but I can't find one anywhere. It's like you lot are trying to erase it from history. Like in some way you are embarrassed by selling your identity.
Strange that.

Can we stay vaguely on topic, please? I’m approaching my 10,000th post and it’ll make me sad if it is ‘locked’.

Your right neither does gateshull.

Now now they will lock it and we don’t want that do we hull went out to oz big deal so did Wigan and Leeds and they all lost

No embarrassment here, I have a Polo Shirt still with our Cartoon Shark on it. You do realise why we became the Sharks right? Probably forgotten, like you forgot to pay all your clubs suppliers.

People in glass houses and all that

Sorry! They do ask for it though.
Feel oddly positive about the season. This win may lift some confidence in the players

Yes it still has the capacity to be another stinker of a season for us but looking at things so far Widnes look poor despite running Cas and Warry close.Catalans still tough at home but poor coach and look vulnerable.Salford are hard to fancy over the season as look bit weak behind first 17?Warry look like champs on paper but not clicked yet.Wakey Cas Hull could should be top 6 but one of them may slip into bottom 4.Hudds are hard to call at mo? Only Leeds Wig and Saints have looked the part so far.We as a team just have to give everything we have each game and win majority of home games and sneak a few away.Hoping this VaiVai lad is good for us and a few decent forwards due back fit.Im more hopeful than I was but will probably be a few bad days sprinkled in with the good. Early days but I like our spirit so far

I'm not sure why you think Leeds have looked the part so far. 2 stuttering wins against 2 middle 8s teams from last year and a dry bumming in oz doesnt look great to me

Warry away is always tough and playing the best club side in the world with half a pack missing then Melbourne is pretty good I'd say?

get your facts right before posting

Its hard to call at the moment who's good and who's bad. Saints look the part definitely but aside from that the rest have yet to impress.

Cas look like they have the potential to have a dip season.
Wire just look devoid of ideas but reckon they'll pick up
Hull were looked good at Hudds but poor against Wigan in odd circumstances
Wigan looked good against Hull but didn't take chances
Wakey could be the dark horses and be this years Salford
Leeds I'm not sure of

The Oz games I'm not sure we can take much from in terms of performance, The Wigan Hull game will have been affected by travel, the WCC was just a mismatch but that would have happened against any SL team and the other 2 were handled as friendlies with too many changes to gauge how good any one was.
