Sharks big men are totally dominant, buts it’s their wingers that are starting off their sets so well... Flannagan last tackle options looking very one dimensional

Would like to see Deitz get a run. Surely can’t be worse than Katoa.

I think the service from Katoa is killing any chance we have to attack.
Yeah, Kotoa is very one dimensional and to make matters worse he is really slow with his delivery. #9 really is going to be a worry for us.

Katoa has had some solid darts and a good kick but his service is all over the place. Hopefully Deitz can show something.

I know Flanagan is running the show but Wakeham has to go looking for it too he just seems to be waiting for it to come to him.

In saying that it probably is hard for him considering Averillo would have done the bulk of the off season ball work.
It's the Luai role and it's always going to suit a player like Averillo more. I just don't understand why we're not even using him as a 2nd/3rd receiver? All plays seem to go right.

That looks an awful lot like Daniel Holdsworth in a sharks shirt. Surely not haha
Did they have to play sweet Caroline? We are close to the airport here but I don’t want to see any helicopters

2021 = 2020 = 2019=2018.... Hopefully we have something in the tank because our attack is horrible.

We had 5 newbies in this hit out with 5 more regulars to come in by round 5. I'm more concerned that nobody makes legs tackles. Wakeham has no voice, and the importance of a top drawer dummy half is very evident when attacking. Time and time again we seem to go the wrong direction. Should also be standing deeper in attack. Thought Baz would of sorted that out.

Still needs a lot of work in attack before round -1.
Allan look good & involved.
Halves a little disappointing. Wakeham defence has improvement. Attack too lateral & predictable.
Elliott & Jackson working hard
Meaney as much punch as a grandmother.
DWZ, hoppa & Co missing reading numbers. Need to get fixed.
Ogden good moments but gets tired quickly.
Katoa solid but does not have the X-Factor.
Cotric some good moments but still adapting to the centre role.
Let's see how if things changed in the 2nd half. Need to see more in attack.

It will be interesting to see if TBaz tips them on what needs to change this half
