VIDEO - It's official: Sharks are the real deal

 

This Cronulla Sharks team just continues to win game after game… And last night, it was the attack which lead the way… and that’s not normally how the Sharks play football.

It’s normally a slow it down… grind it out type of game you see from Cronulla… with a very tight defence… and JUST enough points in them to win close games.

It’s rare you walk away from a Cronulla game thinking… gee they’re a great team… they’re tough though, and they’re spoilers…. And last night they were electric, with halfback and captain Brett Kimmorley leading the way… he was sensational last night.

Knowing Cronulla coach Ricky Stuart, he wouldn’t be happy with his team’s defence… but he should be excited that his team has shown they can attack.

And the big boppers had big games last night… young Luke Douglas made 35 tackles, and ran for 133 metes… while Ben Ross made 31 tackles, and ran for 143 metres…. All the signs are good for the Sharkies.

The Raiders have plenty of young talent… and I would love them to make the finals… but just about every time you get excited about them… they get beaten… still, with ten rounds still to go, they’re only two points out of the top eight.

Parramatta halfback Brett Finch has hit the back pages this morning for his spirited defence of his father… referee’s boss Robert Finch.

Finch senior, Robert Finch, has copped a recent spray from New South Wales selector Bob Fulton… now I won’t be bagging Bozo because he’s a friend and a colleague… but Brett Finch sure has.

He says the attacks on his old man from Bob are ordinary and way over the top…and he should look at his own job as a selector…. Brett Finch says if New South Wales loses the series for the third year in a row… then Fulton should be sacked.

I find it very difficult to criticise anyone for leaping to the defence of their family… I know I would… and I know Bob probably would as well…

But if I can offer this advice to Brett Finch… worry about your own battles mate…. don’t get involved in one’s that don’t concern you… your father has known Bob Fulton long enough to know exactly how to react.

Brett… fight in your own league mate… in Bob Fulton, you’ve taken on one of the best sledgers and one line experts on the planet!

Ricky Stuart wouldn’t be happy with his team’s defence… but he should be excited that his team has shown they can attack... Andrew Moore
