Round 23: Storm @ Cronulla

[bula]

What a performance!
Edge defence was awesome and Tohu really impressed me with his grubbiness tonight. Really got under their skin.
Finucane made some silly mistakes but loved his work along with Welch in the middle.

[Itzbek the Purple]

Finucane finished with a broken arm. Anyone see how it happened?

[blazza18]

Every player did their job tonight and I loved it. The whinging by Sharks fans is the cherry on top of a great performance.

Finucane had a shocker of a night but his effort was there all game. I really hope his arm is ok and he can be back before the season is over.

[TC]

Great performance. Well done boys.
Hope Dale is not too bad

[yourhero]

Noooooo! What a way to dampen a brilliant win. His loss will be enormous. Nobody in our team does the tough stuff like Finucane.

[yourhero]

Great edge defence boys. We have struggled with it all year but tonight it was solid.

[TC]

Gallen in the press conference trying to blame the loss solely on Storm being allowed to hold down in the tackle.
Nothing to do with poor choices in attack and defence then?

[glennb]

Yes holding down too long in the tackle always causes your opposition to score 30 points and stops you from scoring any tries.

[Inglis#3]

Not much talk of Munster's performance. I guess we've come to expect it now.

Wise head on a young body. Now who's the next Cooper?

[yourhero]

Apparently Dale's injury is a dislocated forearm? Anyone confirm?

[blazza18]

Munster is unreal for a 20 year old. In 14 games this season he has only run less than 100m twice. Has over 150m 7 times and 200m 4 times. A couple of those games he ran for 140ish metres.


It's really no surprise that we've started to turn it around more with the increase of Munster's role.

[stormy]

it was so annoying to hear alexander cry cos we got some well deserved penalties. When we play the warriors the commentators always go on about how they are our bogey side, but not one mention of how we are the sharks bogey side and how we always THRASH them.They talked alot about how we would fall down the ladder if we lose but never used the same scenario about the sharks. The crowd never shut up booing for penalties in the first half but the refs never fell for it.

Shout out to Mann too - solid performance!

Hope Dale is ok - though. .. how does one dislocate a forearm? Sounds painful if that's what happened. .. surely better than a broken arm if that's the case

I've seen it before, brutal looking injury. Radius or Ulna pops out of place. Semi-common in weightlifting.

I would assume a shorter recovery time compared to a break (fingers crossed) but no doubt dependent on extent and damage to surrounding tendons/muscles/etc.

I didn’t even notice it.

[absentee]

I thoroughly enjoy beating a team with both Gallen and Ennis in it.
