[00:01:00] Now's the time to see all the Sharks are...

[00:02:11] Welcome to SharkCast, part of the podcast dedicated to the greatest sporting club in the history of the world. The mighty Cronulla Sutherland Sharks. The best victorious today at Ocean Protect Stadium with a massive 52 to points to 10 win over the high-flying West Tigers. No team has ever won the comp conceding 50 points or more. Sharks defeated the West Tigers, 52 to 10.

[00:02:39] Again, we're here for a bit to talk to you about everything that's going on, especially out there today at Ocean Protect Stadium. A massive win. Sorry about the angle. We're in a different room again today. Play sort of... Find a new place to record at Ocean Protect and we love it. So I hope I'm coming through loud and clear and hope the audio... The visual is not too much for you guys and girls. But as Dion says first, a great win tonight. Absolutely. Hard fought in the first half.

[00:03:08] It was back and forth a bit. Better team easily won. I'm really confused about this Sharks team. Like, that's how good they can be. I'm not sure why it's not like that more often than not, but we can get into all of that. If you want to jump on and have your say, I've left some links in the comment sections around the place.

[00:03:32] And if you're on Insta and you want to jump on, I haven't left the link there in a really good linkable place. So you can work it out. But we'd love to hear from you. Here for a bit just to talk about black, white and blue Sharks win 52-10. Two hat tricks. KL Iro returning the great form tonight. And Teague Wilton with a hat trick as well. So brilliant stuff. My brother says that Fitzy got the bench right. And he did.

[00:04:01] Oregon Kafusi. His second half was awesome. Joel says the second half has been their best performance. So yeah, great second half performance. Oh my gosh. Defensively a lot tighter this week. And we'll get to the bottom of that and see what was different from last week aside from the obvious. But even just structurally, they looked a lot tighter unit. They weren't jumping out too much. And it was just, yeah, an impressive win. Lucy from Melbourne says, yeah, the boys.

[00:04:31] Or maybe he goes, oh yeah. Corey says, winner, winner, Tiger dinner. Dan the man says, rugby Teague. That could be the comment of that night so far. Well done. Dion says, Teague was impressive. AFB solid. Look, I thought to a man, they were all much better than they have been. And some really great performances. So I'd love to get into all that with you. Tim says, I missed the game because I wasn't feeling great. So stoked with the win. Oh, sorry to hear that, Tim.

[00:05:00] Hope you're on the mend or will be on the mend. Make sure you watch the replay because it was really, really. Second half was fun, but first half was a bit of a grind. And I thought we won that grind fair and square. Garcy Tens is amazing. Second half stat for Sam. So he's got the meters at 1,074 versus 273. I might look at that myself, but not that I need to prove that. Like I take your word for it, of course.

[00:05:31] So our future dude says, what a reverse, you know, card we pulled in the Tigers. Expected 50 you put on us. We put 50 on them. Look, I came here and I wasn't overly confident as you would have heard in the episodes throughout the week. I didn't think that it was unwinnable or anything crazy like that. I just thought it was going to be tougher than what it was. And Tigers would have been pretty confident even down their three guys, three really good guys, has to be said. Buller, Pierce Paul, someone else.

[00:05:58] And then we saw Dewey get hurt really early on. Hopefully he's okay because we love Dewey. But forget all that. Better team won. Reese says, huge bounce back from KL. Hattrick KL. Thank you very much, Reese. Susan says, fantastic win, Shark. He's more of that every game, please. Up, up. Ashley is going to call us. That's cool. Lucia's fantastic across the park. Heroddy was great. Nickel was on fire. Inesitra was magnificent.

[00:06:28] Great Shark Park moment for sure. Trish is walking back to the car. We love to hear all this sort of insight from people who are at the game. A bunch of happy fans. That's really great to hear. Hope you're well, Trish. Didn't see you today. I don't think, but hope you're good. Brett says, hi Sam. Love your work. Great win, but still need to look at the defensive attitude, especially at first 20. Miss as many as the Tigers and ineffective according to the stats was worse. So it's a great point, Brett. Thank you for the kind words.

[00:06:57] And it wasn't all rosy out there in the first half. We need to talk about that. There was a scrum and a triumph from a scrum for them, which was deplorable. And then we got one back. So completely agree there. I'm not trying to paint it all as rosy, but overall, such an improvement and a really great result. The four and against is really getting a bit of an improvement there as well, because we were down by so many points in the four and against differential.

[00:07:25] But we're up to eighth place right now. See what happens with the last game going on. But just a great win, 52 to 10. Like putting 50 on anyone's a lot of fun. And so that was cool. Dion says, great to see a huge crowd out there supporting the Sharks 14K plus. Yeah, absolutely. So really great atmosphere. To be fair, there were a bunch of Tigers fans here, but it probably wasn't as many as I thought there'd be.

[00:07:52] But they were here and a great day for footy. Weather was good. Great turnout. Hopefully no issues because I didn't see any issues walking around. Everyone was in pretty good mood and they got a pretty good game. Got a pretty good game. Garsley 10 says, I thought Jesse off the bench was really good impact wise. Completely switched momentum when it was 12-10 to us. Yeah, the bench was great. My brother pointed out like the bench was really good today. Even Kofusi not playing in the second half as far as I could tell.

[00:08:22] Interesting move, but he was great. He was really good. Go back and watch Kofusi and sort of solo in on him and he was good. So Luz says, the Dolphins, Melbourne, West Tigers, Gold Coast, Para, Dragons. Lots of teams had 50 put them this year. Our reports are getting better and better each week. And also we're responsible for at least two of these six teams conceding 50. So what Luz is of course referring to is if you concede 50, you can't win the comp. If you concede 49, you can.

[00:08:52] Newcastle, 01. But as long as we don't concede 50, Luz, that's the trick. And we'll be alive. Craig says, so aroused by the win. Hey, let's keep it PG. I still hate that right edge. Siffer let both those tries in and the whole game turned once Dewey went off. Thoughts are with him. Absolutely. Need a bench going forward that has Colquhoun. Then Siffer and Burns on a smaller mobile hard-hitting bench. Yeah, look, there was a couple of tries there where Siffer was involved.

[00:09:22] The second one which had him, and I only saw it at the ground and on the replay screens, but it looked like it was circumstantial as far as who was at fault. So I don't want to hang him too hard. There was one that was clearly him. But I'm with you. Like, he's not our first choice center. Completely agree with you on that. But the bench was great. Smaller bench. Billy Burns was terrific. We're going to get into all these players, but it was cool. It was a cool performance.

[00:09:49] Garstley 10 said, thought the six games weren't over the top today and were flying at paces last year. Brendan Fitz said, great to get the two points. That said, the Tigers were woeful. From a stats perspective, a completely bizarre game of footy. Up, up, but let's not read too much into this one. Well, hold the phone there, my friend.

[00:10:14] I don't think this means we are necessarily premiership contenders based on today's game. But I think you can look into it as well. I mean, chips are down. We got injuries. They got injuries. We got injuries. We put 50 on them at home, but more importantly, kept the West Tigers to 10 points. I can read into that, my man. Respect your opinion. I understand what you're saying as well. Let's not go off too crazy.

[00:10:41] Marky Mark was a bit worried in the first half, but once we had to run into the breeze, everyone really ripped in and got their nose through. It was good to watch. Oh man, it was fun to watch. Future Dude said, second hat trick in a row by Ero. Looks like he's starting to get some confidence back into his attack. That's a great point. Two hat tricks in a row. Now, I can see that Luke has called through. Luke, you want to come on? Yeah, there he is. All right, Luke, how are you, my friend? I'm the winner of my family. Let's go. That's right. So let's explain that to our listeners and viewers.

[00:11:11] Your dad is a big West Tigers guy, and you're a big Sharks guy, as well as I can see some sort of Sydney Thunder action, but that's for another time. Yeah. How's your dad going? Oh, he's not. Like, he's not impressed, but he's a bit flat, but he said that they've got a few players out, and he probably thought that could have been a lot worse than it should have been. Oh, boy. Couldn't get too much worse, but who impressed you out there? What'd you see?

[00:11:40] Teague Wilton got a hatch with those. Unreal. Like, when he went on the scoreboard, the graphic, it said free tries. I was like, that's unreal. Like, for a second roller, that's potential right there for Teague Wilton. Yeah. He's probably not hit his strides the way we would want him to for most of the year, but today was a bit of a breakout game.

[00:12:01] Even take the tries aside, Luke, he played really tough, really strong, very Teague Wilton-like, ripped in defense, got some good meters. Let me have a look at his meters here. He got about 70 meters, nine runs, but heavily involved, 31 tackles. So, yeah, he did well. Tell me what else you liked about the performance, my friend. Well, a bit flat in the first half. Paul Gallen was saying we were a little bit flat in the first half, just too many errors.

[00:12:30] The attack was a bit slow, but I reckon as the second half kept going, I feel like we got a lot of ball. The Tigers, we kept attacking Tavana's end and he kept dropping the ball and giving it a lot of possession and a lot of tries scored against him. Yeah, they really kicked well today. Mainly Trindle, but Nico was well. And they really took advantage of those back three for the Tigers and they were a bit shaky there.

[00:13:00] And I think the more they hit them, the less confidence they had. It ended up with some good tries and good attacking positions. So, yeah, that was cool. It was cool. Give us your top three out there for the Sharkies. Top three at number three. Oh, I reckon Teague Wilton just because of his hat trick. It really did impress me. He acts like he just played really well. I know he didn't really get much meters, but the free tries really did impress me today.

[00:13:29] Ran on the ball hard. He was there at the right time. He just, he was sensational. Number two, I reckon Talakai had a good game. He was doing a few strong carries today. He ran hard at the fellow Shark himself, Royce Hunt. And yeah, he had a bit of a laugh. He sprinted right at him, but he was making a few good tackle busts. Yeah. And he was really, really good. And number one, I reckon Blake Braley.

[00:13:59] He played a really good, had a good kick game, set up a few good tries. And he has to play for New South Wales. He, he had a great performance. I was very happy. Yeah. I think he'll be there either on the bench or starting. So good times ahead for Blakey. Anything else you want to say before we get young Ash on? Tell us about anything else, Luke. Yeah. The Tigers like, I feel a bit sorry for him. As you know, Sydney Thunder from Western Sydney where the Tigers are. Oh.

[00:14:28] I understand what it is like to lose. And I hope Adam Tui pushes through with that shoulder injury. So all the best. It didn't look good, my friend. And we're big Dewey guys on the show. So hopefully he's okay. And it definitely didn't help their chances when he went off. So, but you know what? All's fair. Yeah. And the Sharkies took advantage and played really well. Uh, thanks for your time, Luke. Thanks for jumping on. Hopefully we'll talk to you again soon. Okay. I'll give my best to your family. All right. Come on home. Let's go. All right.

[00:14:58] It's coming home. I love it. All right. See you, Luke. Thanks. Thanks again. All right. From one lunatic to another. I say that with love. Here is our friend. Claus out. How are you? Mate, mate. Just trying to find some light just so I could see you and speak to you. I can see you brother. I can see you. Mate. Absolute fantastic day. What a day. That was, I was nervous at the start, but in the end, all good. Everything is good. Life's good. Life is good.

[00:15:26] And tell us who impressed you out there for the Sharkies. Look, I'm going to be honest with you, mate. I think everyone really had a good game today. Like no one, I can't discredit anyone. I think everyone set up a game plan today and they actually executed it well. So massive applause and pat on the back to all the boys today. They actually gave it a hundred percent. So good on them. How was the shark cage? You look pretty rocking from where I was. Oh, mate. It's always rocking.

[00:15:56] It's always rocking. It's always good in the shark cage. Okay. For those that never been to a game or want to come to a game, join the shark cage because it's an atmosphere. Great day. Give us your three, two, ones before we let you go, my man. There's no two or ones today. Three points goes to the whole team today. Full credit to everyone. Massive applause. Well said. Well said, Ash. Thank you. Are you going to be at the bunnies game next week? Because I'll be there. TBC. Hopefully. TBC.

[00:16:26] Let's work it out during the week. I'm still savoring in this wind tonight. So. Yep. Thanks, Sam. It's always. All right. I appreciate you. Have safe travels, please. As an OG. OG since day one. OG to OG. I hear you. Safe travels. All right. Cheers. You two have a great night and have a good week. Cheers mate. Thank you, brother. Thank you. That's claws out. He's out of here. All right. Now some great comments around here.

[00:16:53] Matt says the shark, the Tigers really dropped off in the second half. Our guys pumped up the PCMs and Sam and Ma had confident boosting games. Yeah. Stone Street and Mark Harati. Harati was great. Nuller says I seem to have had a few. I haven't. I've had like one and that was ages ago. This is me. How I look when I'm happy and I'm not happy very often. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. No, no.

[00:17:21] Honestly, one really quiet drink pregame. That was it. I promise. Buck says I'm interested in the footy again. Adam is asking when is Jesse are back cracking wind. Good day at the footy. Don't have anything concrete. I think it's sooner rather than later. Sorry to be so obvious about that. Um, if I was to put a ballpark on it, I think two to three weeks maybe, but I think he's getting closer. Kirk says love Billy in the middle. We need to be a bit smaller. He was my man of the match.

[00:17:50] Uh, he wasn't screwed by playing out wide then put in the middle. Uh, yeah, he was really good. Billy Burns in this modern day of rugby league was really, really good. I'll jump over to our friends on the Insta. Hello, hello, hello. And everyone's cool. No one's got any questions yet. That's cool. Let's go back to the other pages. Lush says regardless of whether they would, whether they were depleted or not, that's the game. That's the way.

[00:18:20] Yeah, absolutely. Oh, there's no excuses there. Uh, Greg says the Sharks have never scored 50 twice in one season. The NRL era. I checked the stats further, but I doubt they did it before the NRL era. King Nico's at it again. Oh no, we can check all that my friend, but that's for another time probably. But yeah, big win Greg and Nico was really good. Really, really good. Aussie all the way says didn't see that scoreline coming. Me either. Uh, great.

[00:18:46] They could turn it around some average form recently, but that's what we're capable of. Up, up, keep it going. Uh, Luke says that Luke Bloke is a legend. Yeah. So Luke's a, he's a young whippersnapper. One of our younger listeners. I think he's in year 11 or 12 at school, 10, 11, 12 and, um, lives regionally, comes to Sydney every now and then, came to our watch along party, which was awesome with his parents and does a Sydney thunder, um, type podcast.

[00:19:16] If you like cricket and Sydney thunder, he's your guy. But thanks for saying that, Luke. I'm sure he appreciates it. Appreciate that. Uh, Sharky boy Gonzalez says love the improved effort on and off the ball. Could tell Nicker gave everything in his tackles. Yep. Nicker are jumped on a spilt ball early on. And I was like, he's on. We're on attitudes. Good. So that was really impressive to see. Let's look at some of these numbers here. We completed you guys and girls sitting down. Do you know what we completed at? Are you ready?

[00:19:46] Eighty eight percent. Eighty eight percent. That's amazing. They were at 62. That's not so amazing. Uh, five line breaks to three. We ran for yeah, overall almost 700 meters more, uh, twice as many post contact meters as well. We missed around 25 tackles, which is, which is good compared to what we've been recently. Uh, we, we leveled the penalty count. We didn't win it. Three all draw.

[00:20:15] Half the errors of the West Tigers. What about this one? Ring the bell, get the applause going. Where's my buttons? I don't know how to press them from here, but, uh, we didn't lose a challenge today. Inconclusive, sure. But we did not lose a challenge. And another round of applause. No. So that was cool.

[00:20:45] And we actually won the set restarts five, four. So not an ill discipline game by any means, whether it's penalties or errors. That's, that's good news. It's really good news. We'll get into some player stuff as well, but let's get back to some of your comments. All right. Where are we at? Mark says, Nico had a good, good game. Great to see him turn on them. Turn the momentum on for us at the end of the first half for that nice kick that pin

[00:21:13] the Tigers in their line, then intercept that led to the try. So absolutely Mark. And here's what I want to point out. And I don't know if you saw it on the screen watching on Fox or on channel nine, but at the game, particularly if you were elevated a little bit, what you would have noticed was for those dropouts, they had a bunch of dropouts in the second half and they really needed the ball back, the West Tigers.

[00:21:38] The Sharks had between six and eight players in that front 10, 10 meter zone on the line, like pretty much a wall comparatively. And they had probably three more guys just behind that and then the strays. And that's why you saw one of them, they just went long and the ball ended up on our 30, but who cares? We got the ball back. But that's good football. That's good coaching.

[00:22:06] And it's smart because if they're going to get the ball back, they got to really fight for it. And I don't know if they did very often from dropouts. So I want to see more of that. That was, that was elite for me like that. I nerd out and that kind of thing. So just wanted to point that out. Danny says, I hope Oggy Kofusi gets a mention. He was great today. Nikko was fantastic. Yeah, we've already mentioned Danny and the spoiler when we do the Kieran show tomorrow, we're going to mention it because Kieran was frothing sitting next to me about Kofusi. And I was like, I know, I know I'm on board, but he's like, no, no,

[00:22:35] he kept him the second half. And then he was really, really good. So Dion's 3-2-1s were Teague, Nikko and Kennedy. We haven't even mentioned Will Kennedy. He was fantastic again. He ran for about 170 meters. He busted four tackles. He had a line break assist, a try assist. And he was superb. And that continues the mystery of Will Kennedy at Cronulla. And you guys and girls know how I feel about him.

[00:23:05] Danny says, Kennedy and Trindle were also great. Okay. JFM says, we needed that dominant scoreline given the players that were out for the Tigers. All the players had a good game, did the basics well. I thought Oregon was strong off the bench. Absolutely. Absolutely. Maddie Crosby and OG says, hey, mate, Nikko's best game in the past two years. I hope we look at debuting Riley Jones in the center to replace Talakai. We still have numerous drop balls and missed tackles.

[00:23:35] I don't know about that, my friend. I don't know about having Riley Jones debuting in the centers because next week we play Souths. Souths scored 38 points today and lost. Holy Moses, like PVL is just on fire with his brand of rugby league. And Souths is going to score points and Sifitalikai can score points. I know that he's not the most concise defender side to side.

[00:24:04] But I would also say, watch some of those tries back today. He's involved in them that went against us, but they're not all specifically on him. I hear your point. I take your point. Maybe Michael Gabriel's back. Maybe Jesse Ramian is back. I don't know. But I'd be holding off on Jones just now. But he has been playing okay for the Jets in the center with all respect. Galsley 10 said, I thought the outside backs did well considering they were depleted. Absolutely. Yeah.

[00:24:33] Defensively, especially. I think you saw a different sort of defense this week. There was no rushing up. There were one line. There was no panicking. And it wasn't great in the first sort of 25. There were moments that were just forgettable, but they got it together. They got it together. Galsley 10 says, if we won our first penalty count, I thought it was three all. That's what I've got here, but I'm happy to be corrected. Our friend Sammy, I think she's down in Canberra said, I'm so proud of the boys. They got it done today.

[00:25:02] They scored for us and we're very proud. Nico scored for me today. Thanks, Nico. I'm so proud. I enjoy singing as well the song. Thanks, Sammy. Appreciate you. Hope you're well. Kirk says, love the jacket. Yep. This is a retro official Sharks merch. So you can get it online from sharks.com.au from the ground. Tell Barnsley and Ashley that we sent you and they will say thanks. But it's beautiful.

[00:25:32] It's our merch and people think I'm just gonna be sucking up or whatever to the club. It's not the case. Our merch has been elite no matter who the manufacturer is. Hey, how's it going? And Jenny says, hi, Sam. What a win. Was cheering loud up here. Thanks, Jenny. I hope you're well. We just had a visitor from somewhere. A sharks visitor. J.F.M. says our spine really started to click in the second half on the back of some good forward momentum. Hope we can duplicate this. Well, can't hurt. Can it?

[00:26:02] It can't hurt. Like to get in those kind of rhythms and they didn't take their foot off, which was great. Hello to everyone over on the Insta. There's a game on now. Penrith Manley. It's gonna be, I don't know, hopefully good. Someone can give me a score update as usual, but you know what? I can just look on here. It's fine. But I was gonna record later on, but just this is the easiest way to be honest with everything. Oh, six all.

[00:26:32] So this will turn into a podcast and we'll repost and all that kind of stuff. But we just wanted to get it done live in the moment, especially being high on the 50 to 10 win. That's all that's, that's the only high. Corey said, I've just noticed you had a haircut looking slick just as good as the Sharks defense. I appreciate that, Corey. And I don't know what you noticed in the first 27 minutes of the show.

[00:27:02] Just kidding. Thanks so much. It's a big deal for me getting a haircut. I'm not a fan of it. Scott said we need to back this up next weekend. Souths and again against the dogs at Magic Round to be back in premiership contendership. Yeah, I mean, that's fair. And Scott, love your work. But it's also like, I think we can enjoy this, you know, not suggesting you not, but we can enjoy this win without getting too carried away and say well done to everyone involved. And they needed to turn it on today. And they did.

[00:27:28] I mean, a one point win would have been enough, but to get a 40 point win against the West Tigers in current form. That's awesome. But you're right. You know, if we get tailed up next week, what does it, what does it mean? So, and they're going to be hard games. Souths in particular will score a bunch of points. We've seen that. And dogs, who knows what you're going to get. They beat Penrith and then, you know, so who knows? Thank you, Scott. Ghastly 10 says, I'm scared for the Siffer on Latrell matchup next week.

[00:27:58] Now, I appreciate that. At least he's not overly quick, right? He's just very, very good. Let's see what happens. The defense was a lot better today. I think even Siffer was a lot better there today. So let's, if they can keep this up, maybe they replicate what they did during the week. They did a few different set of sessions and that kind of thing. So maybe, maybe it'll be okay. Terry says, lots of good performances. The whole team played well. Kale, Blake and Nico were the standouts. Thanks, Terry.

[00:28:27] Ghastly 10 confirms three or penalty count isn't a loss. I'll take it. Yep, absolutely. Jesse, thanks for the score update. Appreciate you. Nullerboy67 is saying, Braley 3, Nico 2, Kofushi 1. Kofushi got one from the bench. I love it. That's awesome. That is so cool. Jesse said, am I traveling up for magic round? It's a TBC on that one. Yeah, things are a bit, they've made it a bit difficult.

[00:28:57] I'll put it that way for magic round if you're traveling, but it's not a no. So watch this space. So let's keep rolling here. Keep rolling, rolling, rolling. Let's look at some player performances. Will Kennedy at the back. 170 meters. 4 or 5 tackle bus. Triassist. The triassist was sublime. That happened right in front of us in the upper Andrew Ratinghausen. It was just sublime.

[00:29:26] It was just sublime watching it live with my beady little eyes and watching the replays on the big screen. Just perfection. I loved it. Here's a bit of a public announcement from our friend Joe from Mr. Paisley's. Do we know a Lachlan Robinson, Lachy Robinson found his membership card for the Monte Porter stand on the way home? It's going to be at Mr. Paisley's in Caring Bar. So if there's a Lachy Robinson, we can get that to you.

[00:29:55] And alternatively, Joe, maybe I get it and take it to the membership people. But thanks, Joe. You're a ledge. We'll try and flash that one up later if I remember. But Lachy Robinson, if you're watching or a friend of, we found your card. What else? What can't Joe do? Great company today as well. Jesse said the back five was back to their best, all running for over 100 meters. And he's right. He's right. Hiradi, much better game this week.

[00:30:25] Much better game, ran for 100 meters. Sifatalakai, 150 meters running. A couple of tackle busts. He got some missed tackles as well. One which was costly. Might be some more there, but his impact is still pretty good. It's definitely one up for debate, up for topical discussion. I have to stress he's not the first choice center. And everyone in this building knows it. Everyone watching knows it.

[00:30:55] So, you know, go easy on Sifat and everyone else a little bit because they're a bit, their hands are a bit tired the past few weeks with who they're going to play at the center. And it's all very well for someone to say, throw in this guy, throw in that guy. A lot of them aren't available. Other guys aren't experienced. It's tough, man. KL Iro, great game. Three tries. So that, as someone pointed out before, that's six tries in two games. Ran for over 100 meters. Busted five tackles. One try assist.

[00:31:25] He was terrific. Well done, KL. His misses were a lot less this week as well. Everyone's kind of was. Sam Stonestreet scored a try towards the end. Ran for 140 meters. Four tackles. No misses. No errors. So can't ask for much more than that. Matt, as we go to a comment from Matty, who says consistency is what is required. We can score points. Need to work on our defense.

[00:31:54] Handling errors, missed tackles. And the error need to be fixed. If we want to stand out from the crowd, be aiming to be Penrith. We need to be like that. It's a big win, but don't let it get through our heads. I don't think they will, Matt. Like, the first half was, the first half was pretty close. So it's just a breakout second half. I appreciate everything you're saying. I don't think they're going to get big heads from this win. I really don't. But it'll give them some confidence, and they need confidence. Boy, oh boy.

[00:32:25] As far as handling errors, missed tackles, they were okay today. Like, you're going to make some. These guys aren't robots. Fortunately, unfortunately. Mathieu Waday said, love watching the win, but how impressive and clean are Teague's hip tackles? When Teague is on, he is a borderline elite player, and I love seeing him like that. He's a very good player, and he's had some injuries, and he sort of comes back from injuries,

[00:32:54] I think slowly but surely, and he's sort of shaking that off now. Today, he showed you how good he is. How halves Braden Trindle. What's he got? He's got four triassists. Four. That's pretty good. Kicked really well. Kicked the heck out of that ball. The longer the game went, the better he got, and he was pretty good. And that's coming off a performance last week that wasn't that great.

[00:33:21] The king of carrying bar, Nico Hines, scored 20 points, including a runaway intercept try. He ran for 100 meters. Two line break assists. One try assist. Terrific performance from Nico Hines. Well done. Congratulations. Jay Man says, hope you're well. Thank you very much. What did you make of our discipline this week? I thought we looked much better. Still room to improve. That's exactly how I'd put it, Jay.

[00:33:46] Honestly, like nowhere near perfect, but still scored 50 points, 40 point differential in that game. And discipline wise, I mean, the errors were down. The penalties were way down. They won their challenges. And I think they, I said they won the set restart. So that's pretty good. It's pretty good. I think hometown game kind of helped a little bit, you know, big crowd and everything. But yeah, I thought it was a lot better. As you said, thank you so much. I hope you're good too.

[00:34:17] Jay says, our bench was good today. I really enjoyed seeing Kennedy doing some important runs in some of the sets. Yeah. I mean, Kennedy, it's becoming such a problem. And thanks Jay for that. It's becoming such a problem because the guy is like top three every week for us.

[00:34:36] And, you know, people who are in the media, people who coach, people who look at the game differently to what a lot of us look at it like, will tell you he's a really, really good fullback. But there's just that element of smack talk around him. And I don't know, they're basing it on different things.

[00:34:57] I'm not saying their opinions are wrong, but I looked at Kennedy today and I watch him every week, as you know, and he's not the problem. And I completely concede, and I'm kind of sick of saying it, but every time I have to sort of backtrack and go, oh, there's someone faster and better. And like, yeah, sure. But there's not. And he's our guy. And he's very dependable. And he's not breaking the bank.

[00:35:27] I'm fascinated to see what happens here because if there's not another club chasing him, then I don't know what's wrong with those other clubs. I hope that we can resign him and bring in Eisen gradually because he's not ready. He will get there, but he's not ready. Let's let Will be our guy for a bit longer. And, you know, I just am not seeing a fullback that's going backwards. He's going forwards. And, yeah, he's getting older every year. I get it. But he's a shark through and through.

[00:35:57] And it's just a fascinating subject, and I'm happy to have it out with anyone back and forth, pros and cons. You can get better fullbacks. Hear me out. You can get better fullbacks. You can get a lot worse ones as well. And he's doing a great job. I'm very much loved within the team, big in the community, and I don't know. I don't get it myself. Matt says, it's a must.

[00:36:22] We resign Will Kennedy, though I would be having a mini rebuild at the end of the year. I think that's fair. I think that's okay. Yeah. Shout out to Barnsley who's joined the feed. Barnsley, we had a lot of – no, we had some good praise for the merch I'm wearing, and I've already told him to come see you. So now back to the players. Adin for Noah Blake, a really strong game. There were some errors in there, but a really strong game.

[00:36:49] He ran for about 160 meters, busting tackles, made some tackles. It was great. Blake Braley, he ran the ball five times. That's a good sign. Two try assists for Blakey Braley. Two. That's pretty good. He is closer to playing state of origin, whether you like that, whether you don't like, whether you're indifferent on it. He'll be – I would be shocked if he's not either starting or on the bench.

[00:37:14] I think there will be a bit of a push for Robson now he's found some form of the Roosters, but our boy Blakey's going to be in amongst it, which will cause a bit of change for us at some point. Scott says, no doubt the new rules suit Will Kennedy. Toby Rudolph, close to 100 meters. An error in there. Some missed tackles. Four 10 tackles, to be fair. I thought out of all the players, I thought Toby was probably the one down on his game today.

[00:37:43] Never really, in the first stint at least, looked overly dominant. And the error was a big one, and I get it. It's the spotlights on that from the restart, from the kickoff. But I think just out of everyone, he probably was the one who would maybe redo the game. But see what happens there. We can talk about that throughout the week. Let us know what's going on. If you don't want to drop a message here or call in, you can get in touch with us,

[00:38:10] sharkhustpod.gmail.com, via the website, sharkhust.com.au. DM on the socials. You'll find us and we'll get to your messages and everything during the week. Teeq. Britton Nicker are starting about 70 metres. A couple of tackle busts. About 20 tackles. Good return for Britton. I think he's either 80 or he's nothing. So let's roll him out there for 80 and see what he does. What else have we got here?

[00:38:40] Teague Wilton. 30 tackles. Three tries. About 80 metres. So Teague was good. Just doing two things here at once. Bear with me. Teague was good. And I love that aggression that he plays with. I've said it a lot about Teague Wilton. When he's angry and when he's got that fire in his belly, he was chasing everything. He and Britt potentially were the difference today. And Billy Burns, I'll throw in too.

[00:39:08] Like those more mobile players did their job. Now, just looking it up. Adam says, re-sign Will. Use him on the wing. AFB needs less minutes and that'll improve him. She's saying Kennedy on the wing and Liam Eison or fullback maybe. I don't know if he's a winger, Will Kennedy. He could do a job maybe. But I don't think I'd be going that way. Myself, I respect what you're saying. But yeah, interesting. Thank you.

[00:39:35] Adam also says, did it feel like Trindle was calling the shots and it improved us? I don't know. I didn't get that vibe. I thought Nicky was pretty involved. I thought maybe Trindle eased himself into the game maybe. Just trying to do something here. Now, let's go with our friends on the Insta. Taylor said, loved how Oregon played in the time that he had on. Yeah, Taylor absolutely. We've given him a bit of love already.

[00:39:59] But for a guy who's pretty maligned, he did a great job in that second half. Maybe that's the way they're going to go. Maybe that's the way they're going to go. And Jay says, if Raleigh gets picked, who would you be bringing in? Would it be Beryl? Because Jay would be bringing in Beryl. I think he would. I think he would. But I'd like to sleep on that one just to see if there's any other kind of way around it. But I think that's right.

[00:40:27] But he says, I don't agree with putting Will Kennedy on the wing. If we look at the modern NRL era, normally those look to be future fullbacks rather than start them on the wing. Yeah. Yeah, I agree with you. It's kind of like the reverse order. But yeah, there's lots of different things you can do. Now, Drew said, have we ever defeated Jerome Liu I in first grade? And I believe we have.

[00:40:52] And it was only – this is the second time we've beaten Jerome Liu I. The first was in 2018 playing for Penrith at Penrith. We won the game 24-12. So he likes playing against us. Boy, I thought he was quiet today. Either he was quiet or we did a number on him. So that was kind of cool. So Marky says, every time Bradley kicked, we got a result from it. He's kicked to Wilton.

[00:41:19] It was pure class, straight between the legs. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. We love Blake. Now, the rest of the team, Cam McInnes. He ran for about 50 metres, made 25 tackles, of course, didn't miss any. And I didn't mind him being there starting. I will say this. I think I'd be pushing with Jesse Colhoun to start a prop with AFB because Colhoun needs to be on the field more than he's not.

[00:41:46] So love what Colhoun does and love the energy he brought off the bench. But I also think that there's a way to start with him, and that would be starting with AFB. But Cam, he's easing himself back in and doing a great job. Billy Burns off the bench was terrific. About 90 metres. No missed tackles. So for a guy who's been pointed out as missing some tackles on social media and that kind of stuff, he's done well to not miss any today.

[00:42:15] Okay, Jesse Colhoun over 100 metres and, yeah, 25 tackles. No misses. There was that one error early on. I think, yeah, his first error was the first touch he had. And then I think Tom gave away a penalty. It was something where our two guys just came on and they did stuff that wasn't good. But whatever. We're going to move on from that. Orin Kifusi that everyone's talking about. Yeah, about 70 metres off the bench.

[00:42:44] Some terrific offloads and just really dominant. Again, no missed tackles for him. I thought Tom Hazelden had a nice return to form. It really did. He ran for over 100 metres. I think that the one thing you're probably going to get with Tommy is if he doesn't land flat face down or standing, it's going to be a slow play of the ball or at least a slower play of the ball. And he's just a big unit. So a return to form for Tommy. I thought he was really good today.

[00:43:11] And he was really putting in and, yeah, really loved the effort. Hoheba Puru and Riley Jones did not get on the field. Blake Braley for life says, Braley surely makes origin this year. Iro is definitely back. I think that Blake does make origin. I'm just not sure he will get the starting spot. So however you feel about that, or maybe he will and maybe the other fellow with the impact player, I'm not sure.

[00:43:38] But origin, they do favour to hookers playing in the game. So we'll see what happens there. But he definitely deserves it. He's going great and he'll be better for it. There is the risk of injury, but he can get injured tripping over Joe at Mr. Paisley. So let's throw that one out the window now. CJ says, big game, big crowd and big win. Now, CJ, I saw you walking around with your Sharks crew jacket on.

[00:44:06] I saw you in the upper Andrew Eddinghouse. I didn't get to say hi, but I hope you're doing okay. Great job by you and all of your fellow crew people. I think they're still called the crew. Luke says, and I think it sums it up. Man, we slash I needed that. Right on. Lucia's having origin players in the squad will be good for us. And I agree. I'm universally known as not an origin guy, but I agree. I agree with you.

[00:44:32] So Sharks win 52 to 10, in case I haven't said that enough. Jay has also confirmed that we defeated Jerome Luai in Penrith. And he said Matt Mullen scored. Yeah, I think Matt Mullen kind of went bonkers that night, didn't he? So that's good fun. Sharks win 52 to 10, and we're up to eighth spot. For those listening, the Panthers are winning 12-6. Now, we'll play the Rabbitohs next week.

[00:45:00] They lost 42-38. PBL ball. So we're playing the Rabbitohs at Homebush. I think it's 5.30 Saturday. We'll get to all that. But they're going to score some points. They're going to be tough. And let's go do it, you know. We can score points too. You could be getting a shootout is what I'm trying to suggest. Hopefully we do what we did today, and we stop them from scoring points. Adam also sends CJ some love, saying, hope you're doing well, brother.

[00:45:31] Yeah, CJ's a good dude. Lewis says, up, up, Sam. I was in the Bay of Tigers supporters behind the sticks at the southern end. With 10 to go, there was plenty of space around us. Southern end, 10. Yeah, okay, gotcha. You know what? Sharks fans left too. You've got stuff to do. I get it. But I think some Sharks fans missed some of those tries. Bumper crowd. Great fun.

[00:45:58] Loosh says, I feel like there should be another word aside from win when we put 50 on a team. Sharks destroy. Sharks destroy West Tigers 52 to 10. Scott says, to touch on an area to improve, a downside to tonight would have to be a right edge attack. No joy there tonight, and teams seem to be all over Nikola's line running. Right edge, right edge, right edge. Yeah, so that's our makeshift center and winger. That's understandable, I think, Scott.

[00:46:29] The Britain thing, yeah, they've got to work that out. He was a lot better tonight. Heavily involved, but they need to work out. We just had a little blackout. Hopefully everything's all right. Loosh is threatening to come to Sydney. Look out, Sydney. Whoa. Strictly business. Is this some negativity? Another flat track win at home, lads. Well done. I don't know about that. Strictly business. What was flat track about it? They were missing some players. We were missing some players too. We've got a makeshift backline, dude. Or dudette.

[00:46:59] So I appreciate what you're saying. Did people really think we were going to win 13 plus or put 50 on the West Tigers? And can we keep them to 10? I don't think so. Appreciate you. Adam said shark feeding frenzy on Tigers. Yep, we're getting into all the nuts and bolts of the way they say it. FutureDude says, the question now is who do we put 50 on next? And if it happens, do we... I've got to say it again because this is awesome. The question now is who do we put 50 on next?

[00:47:28] And if that happens, do we refer to ourselves as the Grim Reaper? Oh, shark asked. Best audience in the world. That's some deep thinking. We could. It's morbid and it's grim, but that's how you win titles, right? Darby said, been trolling my friend who's on one of the main Tigers podcasts and loving it. Yeah, they've got a lot of good podcasts. We had Adele from West Tigers TV on during the week.

[00:47:56] He's an old friend of mine, but he's involved with West Tigers TV. And there's a number of podcasts out there for West Tigers. They're a very popular team. And that's good work. Good work, Darby. My whiskey loving friend. Lush is hearing whispers Rinala made back next week or week early. Would you bring him in a game early or wait until magic round? I haven't heard those whispers. I did see the great man today. He's looking terrific. I would bring him back, Lush, when he's ready. If it's next week, bring him back. If it's magic round, bring him back.

[00:48:26] If it's after the bye, bring him back. Whenever he's ready, let's go. He's going to add to this team so much. He's chomping at the bit and I cannot wait. Thailand Cronulla Shark supporters group. Go give them a like on the Facebook. What more does Brails have to do to be the Origin 9? Well, personally, I don't think he has to do much. But I think that they like to pick and stick where they can. And Robson is finding form with the Roosters who are in good form.

[00:48:56] And I think they'll both be there. So I'd pick him. That's for sure. Sean says, I think Nico Farr outplayed Trindle tonight. He and Braley were electric. And I would agree with that. But I think Trindle was a lot better this week than he was last week. And I think that his kicks were really, aside for that one, that ended up in Willoware Golf Club. I thought they were really, really good. Cam Oliver, the legendary Cam Oliver. Smart and disciplined game by the spine for the first time in a while.

[00:49:26] That's cool. Cam, if you haven't heard Adele on the previous show, go back and have a listen. It's kind of fun. Loosh says the next 50 will be on the Dargons. Jason Hawes of Crips and Crips Real Estate fame. Said I just got home. I didn't see that coming. Happy days. It's always a good sign when Braley runs early. Sure is, my man. Hope you're doing well. Chris says Will had a great game tonight. Will Kennedy.

[00:49:55] Some elusive runs around the ruck. Very safe under the high ball. Completely agree. Chris, I'm not sure if we're talking about him enough or too much or in between. I think he's been terrific all year. Sean says when Ronnie comes back, the stony dropout. Haradi's looking way better now. So good to have McKinnis back in the starting lineup. Could see the difference. So just working backwards there, Sean. I appreciate your comment. McKinnis back is awesome.

[00:50:20] He brings confidence and a steel-like in defense and a running attitude, which I think other people on the team need. Haradi is looking better than Stoney, I think is what you're saying. So when Ronnie's back, who's going to be the other winger? Well, the question for you, Sean, is Sione Katoa still in the hunt when he's fit?

[00:50:47] Because I would assume that he'll be close to fit when Ronnie's back. I personally, and we'll get shot down by some dear friends of mine, but I personally would go for Katoa and for Mulder Talo this year. And then next year you can work it out. But Stone Street was pretty good tonight, especially compared to the past few weeks. And Haradi was way better. I don't think he's a winger, but he was way better. Interesting problem to have. Danny's 3-2-1s.

[00:51:17] Heinz 3. Kennedy 2. Trindle 1. Awesome. Appreciate you. Thank you very much. Sharks win 52-10. Holy cow. Jacqueline says, I'm late to the party, but was the run out music different today? Oh, I'm going to need help with that one. Ooh, Jacqueline, can of worms opening up. Can someone who was at the ground confirm? Or we'll have to ask our friend Jess Chicha the Sharks about it. I mean, I was here for the run out.

[00:51:46] I just can't tell you, but I'm interested to know what happened there, Jacqueline. Sorry I missed you. Be fun to celebrate that. Toe Jam Beast is hopefully the start of a winning run. Absolutely. How good would that be? Sharks win 52-10. Now we have Thailand Cronulla Sharks supporters group. Again, give them a follow. They do good stuff on the Facebook. The kick by Braley between the legs of a defender for Wilton to score.

[00:52:16] His runs from dummy half. Runs very fast. So, yeah, he's talking up. Blake Braley, you don't need to rest your case. So, like, I'm with you. Like, I'm a member of Blake Island, Braley Island. So, now here comes an OG from way back. Here he comes. Hey, Nathan. How are you? Long time no see. Hey, Sam. How are you doing? I'm good. That's an in joke for everyone listening because I saw Nathan just before. What did you make of the game, my friend?

[00:52:46] Well, it was the bounce back we needed. I thought, what was it? What was it? What was it? 6-4 down. They made it 8-6. I thought they had to run away with this one. But we, you know, we just kept turning away and we're going up by sixes. So, that's what. So, let me help you out there. It was 6-0 Sharks. Yeah.

[00:53:12] And then it was, what am I looking at here? Something's happened. Something's happened here. They went back and forth to your point, yes. I believe then it was, yeah, then it was 6-4. It's a Cronulla. They scored and they scored again through May. They got the goal with Jock Madden. So, it was 10-6 to your point. Then KL scored his first try in the 20th minute. It was 10-all. Nicko gets a goal, 12-10.

[00:53:41] And from then on, we went ahead with it and we scored a couple of tries before halftime. Yeah. Yeah. And to your answer for the song, it was Kickstart My Heart. Oh, whoa. This is huge. Now, weird question. It's okay if you don't know. Was it like the Motley Crue original version or was it a remix or?

[00:54:09] No, it was the Motley Crue. Wow. This is huge, Nathan. Yeah. Thanks to Jacqueline for pointing it out. This is huge. Okay. Interesting. I don't recall any remixes. So, I think it sounded like the old Motley Crue one. What are your thoughts on this, Nathan? Not really. Fust either way. Fair enough. It got the job done. So, whatever. Yeah. Fair enough. Tell me who you liked out there.

[00:54:38] Who impressed you? Well, that era had a great game. I mean, it was finally good to have Bradley running. So, I think that's what definitely got us on the front foot, especially in the second half. So, but yeah, Nico's intercepted that pretty much just the icing on the cake. So, yeah, I thought that was good. So, we needed that win big time. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, you and I spoke before the game and we were sort of unsure what was going to happen.

[00:55:06] But, I mean, you would hope there was going to be a bounce back, but there was a pretty big one. And, you know, we're not getting ahead of ourselves, but to put 50 on them, the way they're flying, no matter who they're missing, that's pretty cool. Because their defense has been really good this year, Nathan. Everyone talks about the tries they scored. Their defense has been like, I think, top two all year. So, to put 50 on the second best defensive team. And also, we're missing players. Like, we're missing Ramian.

[00:55:36] We're missing... Yes. Yeah. Katoa. Katoa. Like, drop, but, you know, missing him. And Ronnie, like, his guy's out. McInnes is just back. Like, it's not like we're perfect in the injury department. So, I appreciate they were missing some really good players. But I think the turning point also was Dewey. Like, people aren't talking enough about that. But he hurt himself scoring a try and he might be gone for a while. Hopefully not for their sake.

[00:56:05] But I think that was pretty major. Even though Jock Madden is a great replacement. Like, a pretty handy replacement. But it was exactly what we needed, Nathan. Foot on the throat. Like, that's what we did. Like, we're always complaining about it. Oh, why aren't we more lethal than foot on the throat? Well, we did it. Yeah. We didn't really play with our food, so to speak. Because usually within... If we have a lead that's within 15, 20 to go, we usually sort of fumble and bumble away towards the end. But... Yeah.

[00:56:35] Yeah. Yeah, this one we really... You know, let's put him to the sword. Yeah. Because I think when... With 10 minutes to go, I thought, we can do 50 here if all things are going well. Yeah. And lo and behold, we did. So... Yeah. I think that conversation was happening a lot around the ground. And I said it as well. But was I realistically thinking it was going to happen? Probably not. No. Just for... For no bad reason. Just like, I was pretty content.

[00:57:05] But everyone kind of went, well, there's 10 minutes to go. There's 10 points to score. And they did it. You know? And it's... Yeah. Just to go back to your point about the Tigers' defense, on your podcast with your friend Adele, go for the Tigers. Have I got that name right? Yes. I think you said his average for the Tigers was like 12 points a game, though, you can see. Something like that. Yeah. Big time. So we just blew up that myth. Yeah.

[00:57:36] Be it as a mate, the Tigers had guys out. So take it at what you want. But that is one of my points, Nathan, is that we came up against a really good defensive team. Like this year, they know how to defend. The proof is there after eight games. They were, I think, first or second defensively, which they haven't been for years, to their credit. And to put 50 on them, that's pretty cool. Yeah, it is. What did you make of the atmosphere of the ground?

[00:58:07] That place was going off, which is like... You very rarely see it at a chart park. Yeah. Yeah. I think definitely once you had the momentum, the crowd was really into it. Riding every tackle all the way, you know, and that sort of thing. But yeah, it's hard to... Chart park's a weird place to get that all the time. I don't know. Maybe it's just who we are. Because I know we're really trying to get the atmosphere back

[00:58:36] to a really exciting place. Yeah, it sort of depends on the crowd, the day, who we're playing, how we're playing. Yeah. Yeah, I think your last point, unfortunately, although it makes sense, is how we're playing. Because the first half even, like, the crowd was... They got into it, but it's not like it was pulsating in the first 10 minutes from a crowd point of view, as in, like, the crowd's sort of performance, I want to better words.

[00:59:04] But once it got a bit close, things went our way, things didn't go away, the emotions were going, and then, yeah, they went on with it. And I think the Sharks kind of drew them in, and you had no choice but to sort of get vocal and get loud, which is awesome. Any negatives for you? Anything you want to work on? There's still an area, like, the discipline with the ball, like, especially in that first 20 minutes of the game when we really were a bit behind the scoreboard,

[00:59:32] and, you know, I mean, yeah, Rudolph dropped one off the... Yeah. That one, and Cole Hoon dropped one, and as soon as he came on, he dropped it for the first hit up. And I think Fanoil Blake dropped one, I think, maybe then, but I can't remember. But it's just stuff like that, and it's... That stuff has sort of turned a game. Yeah. Yeah. And, but if... If, yeah, you could deny... I'm a theory of if you deny your opponent the chances to score, like holding the ball, and not be away six against all the penalties,

[01:00:02] that goes into your favour. Yeah. Yeah. I know it's very cliche. Yeah. It's very cliche. No, but it's completely true, and I think at one point, maybe it was when they went ahead in the first half, I said to Kieran sitting next to me, I said, this is not how you play the West Tigers with the drop ball you're talking about and the repeat sets. I was like, if you give them the ball, they're probably going to score. The thing is,

[01:00:35] they're going to score 40% of the possession. So, that was a major way to going on and winning the game. Like, as you say, that's how you... Especially a team like them. And I think last week against the Cowboys, if they played that way and not given over the ball, et cetera, we would have got the win. We would have won the game. So... Yeah. Because in, for the Tigers' point of view, they made errors in their half and we punished them every time.

[01:01:05] Yeah. And so, that's what it leads to sometimes. You know, completing sets is almost paramount. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Who were your 3-2-1s or your best out there or who impressed you? 3-2-1s sort of top of my head. I was thinking this on the way home. I had Eero as my three, Colhoun at two and Braley one. Okay. I was just distracted for a second. Go through it again for me. Three... Sorry. Three was Eero. Yep.

[01:01:35] Two was Colhoun. Yeah. Okay. And number one was Braley. Yeah, nice. Okay, cool. Yeah. I mean, across the board, they were all pretty good. Like, a lot of guys put their hand up for sort of player points today, et cetera. Hey, it was great to see you today, man. Same to you. Always like seeing you up in the rich seats, as people call them, which is a tad unfair. I'm certainly not a rich man. Yeah. Enjoy your week. You heading out to the Homebush game? What are you thinking? No,

[01:02:04] I've got a... I'm heading to a trivia night with some friends and family, so... Nice. Yeah, I'll try to catch the game there, so... Nice. Yeah. Well, hopefully you win that. Yeah, it should be all right. Yeah, it's always fun. All right. Thanks for jumping on. Don't be a stranger, all right? Always good talking to you. Thanks, Sam. That's Nathan. See you, man. Nathan, with the big news. Hopefully Jacqueline's still watching. Kickstart, my heart, is back. Wow. Wow, wow, wow.

[01:02:35] Jay said, Fitz was saying in the press that we haven't seen the best of Teague yet. I've been playing busted for a few seasons, so thanks for that. Oh, Kieran's joined the feed. We're going to talk to Kieran tomorrow, all being well. We're going to wrap up pretty soon, guys, girls. Brendan said, Hines 3, Ero 2, Braley 1. Awesome. Adam said, Fox on stage, had the Tigers with three tackles in our half, and then we're going to check during the week

[01:03:04] to see if it was a first. That's our friends at the lab. Thanks, Adam. Jay said, it's good that our goal line defense was back today, which was very true, and he also said that Ronnie and Ramien are going okay, but we'll see in a few days about when they are coming back. So, yeah, I don't think it'll be next week necessarily. Brendan says, hopefully the win kickstarts our season, especially the big couple of games against Souths and Bulldogs, the first game of Magic round. Absolutely. Every game,

[01:03:34] I'm going one week at a time. That's how I'm rolling. I'll let you guys and girls know if that's different, but I'm going one week at a time. Now it's all about Souths. How do you beat Souths? Let's work that one out. All right. Thank you everyone for jumping on to the post game live stream. Really appreciate it. I know it's not a great time, Sunday night, Sunday evening, but we'll turn this into a podcast for all you audio people, and we'll post this all sorts of places. So, give us a follow, share, like, on Facebook, on Instagram,

[01:04:04] on the X, if you're brave enough to get on the X, look at me, I've got gray hair in my beard. How can I go on TikTok? Well, we just are. We've got a website, sharkcast.com.au, and there's lots of places. YouTube is probably the big one. Give us a like there. That'd be awesome. Tell your friends, family, neighbors, fellow students, workmates, love interests, whatever. Tell everyone about SharkCast. We're out there.

[01:04:33] We do good trade, but there's always another Sharks fan to find. I'm finding it out. I've found that out for the last 12 years. There's always someone else to find. Lately, we've had a lot of new people joining in, and it's awesome. I love the fact when new people join our community. So, please keep spreading the word about SharkCastPod, and we will keep delivering what we do as best we can. And Lush says, love the work. Thank you very much. Jack says, up.

[01:05:03] Thank you very much. Now, this is interesting. Fosball is real. Hang on. Hang on. Oh, the Seagulls are leading. Is this the first time we're going for Manly? I don't know. Kirk says, thanks for your efforts. Kirk, thank you and everyone else for joining. Got to get out of here. Up, up, up, up, up, up, 52 to 10 over the West Tigers. We're coming back, baby.

[01:05:34] Don't know if we're back, but we're coming back. Because if I say we're back, I'll get into trouble for being too pro, whatever. Up, up, Cronulla. Really appreciate everyone. I appreciate everyone. Up, up, Cronulla. I'm trying to find a song to go out to. Come on, Shanaz, get it together. See you later. Up, Cronulla. Up,
