Between the Wahs and the Dogs, guess the Dogs got the better Penrith coach this year.

Scrappy win but it is what it is. Get the 2 points and we move on to next round. Really feel for Hynes tho poor guy can’t catch a break. Was at the game today and witnessed some absolutely shocking behaviour from sharks fans. Disgusting terms thrown his way for missing the kick to win the game. Don’t wanna say to much but they were insulting his nationality. Shit needs to stop. Bunch of mediocre fans who cry like little babies when there team loses. Been a member since 07’ through the good and the bad. Don’t think I’ve ever insulted someone so badly in my life. This is to everyone because what I heard today was really bad. This racial abuse needs to stop. Especially from fans towards players.

You could just say Sharks resume to normality.

u/TRTVitorBelfort Melbourne Storm 2d ago
I was downvoted to the hills for asking earlier in the season if the sharks were to finish 1st but lose in straight sets again would that be a failure. Wondering what happens if they go 3 years in a row without a finals win.

Is Nicho still injured? His kicking has been shite, and Trindall did the bulk of the long range booting

u/jmccar15 I love my footy 2d ago
I really want him to do well. But eeek, he’s not doing anything to help himself. Would love to see him back at fullback, but not possible with the current Sharks team.

Bring back Atkinson I swear trindall just fucking runs the same lines has hynes all game and it's killing his confidence because he's constantly trying to figure what else can do.
It's like if luai just ran and hogged all the spaces cleary would run/ hit I'd be rattled too

Never mind the golden point, Doggies were losing the ruck the whole way and only stayed in it because of Burton's kicks he's a fuckin cheat code.

u/Cooperdyl Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks 2d ago
Nicho will probably cop the blame for that missed field goal that he definitely should have hit, but let’s not forget Toby Rudolf DIRECTLY gave up the dog’s second try and the penalty for their penalty goal.

u/Past-Advance-8685 Penrith Panthers 2d ago
Let’s not forget Nicho also missed two conversion attempts. He’s shit.

u/No_Barber8440 Newcastle Knights 2d ago

u/Cooperdyl Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks 2d ago
I mean if the argument is everyone who misses a conversation from the sideline is a shit player then you’d hate to be a kicker 😅

u/Past-Advance-8685 Penrith Panthers 2d ago
To be on $1 mil a year and missing 2 kicks and a field goal attempt from in front of the post, he is shit.

u/No_Barber8440 Newcastle Knights 1d ago
Also had a chance to win a game from the sideline
He isn't clutch
He is a fullback not a 7

Hynes is now like a cricket batter forever getting out in the 90s
2
u/jmccar15 I love my footy 2d ago
If only he was getting out in the 90s. More like Warner - a bloke previously averaging 50s in tests who dropped to mid-20s.
2
u/JoeyJoJunior Dargons 2d ago
Yeah Its not a great comparison, continual 90s are still quite valuable. Warner just retired too tho.

Nicho goes downhill everytime he’s selected after being good and dropped after not being good. Kid needs to just never be selected until he goes to therapy or something 🤣

Ahhhh I saw the it hit the post and fell to my knees then realised it went in and now I'm on the roof. Thank you Burto

Nicho needs to decline any future origin selection. It cooks the sharks season

I have a funny feeling that he won't need to decline any selection in the near future

u/ImDisrespectful2Dirt Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs 2d ago
As a Dogs fan I genuinely feel bad for Hynes there. The pressure on him is immense and he’s going to cop the blame here again. His form hasn’t been bad enough to justify it, but you’d wonder if there would be some benefit to having him drop into Cup and dominate some teams to rebuild the confidence?
5
u/Voldemosh Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks 2d ago
Genuinely don't think we can drop our "marquee" player unfortunately. His confidence has to look like swiss cheese. I blame this loss on Rudolf tbh. An absolute passenger and half the reason we lost in the first place.
1
u/OkNectarine3105 New Zealand Warriors 2d ago
Yes, but he still should have got that kick. Couldn't have been set up any better or closer.
6
u/Smeags777 St. George Illawarra Dargons 2d ago
Situations like these are the reason he gets paid big money. And the jury is out, he can't cut it in any of the moments that matter.
