    Obviusly Robbo sees things in a player that I would have no idea about but Egan just looks so ineffective and wouldn’t break the line if his life depended on it..

    The main concern is we have better players missing out,that shouldn’t happen!
    I think Wongie's currently in the naughty corner but unlike the non-selection of Keary/Latrell/Hastings...etc he never had the profile for this to make headlines.

    PS - why are we favourites now that the team's been named without Manu in it? Meh!

    My guess is that he's simply the best out of Dockar-Clay, Sitili and Whyte right now? Although yeah. I'd argue Whyte's the man who should be getting picked.

    It's a rough process but we're talking about a single bench forward in a team where there's some super impressive players who will not be displaced (e.g. JWH, Collins, Crichton, Rads, May, Leniu, Watson...etc). Maybe EVERYBODY looks ordinary around them and we need a few nobodies.

      We better not lose Wong or Whyte because of the coach.

        Another big game with achievements with toops 250th and could score his 150th try
        Collins 100th too I think
        shame about Manu a big loss but pauga is a good cover
        Brendon smith back
        gees I got excited with Whyte on the Bench as well with Spencer and May but robbo did a late change and has gone with Egan again which is dissapointing
        Egan does nothing and will be the new whipping boy - I was hoping Whyte would be there as the sharks bench is big - let’s hope for a late change the other way

          Well, we know they'll be attacking Pauga's side all night.


          As we all know as well, they win the ruck and play low percentage, mistake footy. They will run the big boys in the middle through us.


          I'd have Whyte on the pine and not Egan.

            I'd say Angus WONT be here next year after his rant.

            I've heard Sit Still (his manager) has sounded out other clubs.

            Unfortunately, Egan is the coaches boy.

              Man to man, this side absolutely shits on Cronulla -but as a collective, the Cronulla team has been far more impressive this season.

              We should win easily, but I'm not optimistic.
              1985: 1 try vs Parramatta, 1 try vs Manly, 1 try vs Wests, 2 tries vs Souffs
              1986: 2 tries vs Illawarra, 1 try vs Balmain, 2 tries vs Norths.

                Not excuses but to win.

                Robinson has everything he needs and wants.

                    Don't one of the cross-country basketball teams have the same team song?

                      You love Robbo, but in your eyes he's an amateur coach picking kids who he likes but don't deserve to be picked?

                      You're a ****ing idiot

                          Don’t forget that last week Whyte was named in the 17, but Egan played. Maybe it’s the other way around this week. Robbo’s not above a last minute team change.

                            His continued selection defies logic given the capability of those guys you’ve mentioned. He’s not even close. I understand Sitili being ignored if it’s true that he’s being shopped around, but Whyte and Wong? Egan hasn’t kicked on at all and he should be depth for the depth players.

                              Joey ruled out with Category 1 HIA by the way.

                                We lose attacking flair with Manu out, but I’m not sure we lose too much defensively with him out.

                                sharks don’t have many big names in the forwards, but they go hard and work well together collectively.
