Fifita has reportedly slimmed down quite a bit so I'm wondering if he'll have a good season?
.
if he can stay healthy enough he could but I think he will be more of a bench impact player.
That said the sharks were putting some big boppers into their pack last season and Woods with his height was a prolific ball offloader unless wrapped up tightly in the tackle.
Gallen was their previous best offloading the ball forward and usually at the last second before he hit the turf.
Gave the pack great forward impetus

they may be re thinking having signed Mcinnes as well with that ACL issue. Dugan is a walking injured at the best of times as well and Fifita looks like being an "impact" bench player with his injury niggles.
You could probably add moylan to that list seems to be on the sideline more than his on the field

Craig Fitzgibbon to take on Cronulla from next season - a three-year deal worth between $1.5m -$1.8m.

Not a bad deal - but he's on a hiding to nothing with them.

Agree, seems to be doing a decent job to me.

Who is the "bald flog"........James Hooper?

Adam Reynolds set to join Sharks on monster $2.4m deal.

The Sharks football department is preparing to table Reynolds a three-year deal through until the end of 2024 valued at around the $2.4 million mark.

Fox Sports has also been told Fitzgibbon had been speaking to Reynolds prior to the meeting with the new Sharks coach outlining his vision of why the premiership-winning no.7 should join him at Cronulla.

The sharks have had a lot of success buying and reskilling older players especially having success in the half back area.
T Bishop was in the tommy ridiculous mould.
Maloney was a big hit
Reynolds should be a big asset if he signs.

Townsend ? very good and very bad at times so good luck where ever he goes.

Sharks are not really showing any consistent form and now their depth will be given a workout with at least three of their players facing a week out after the Dragons game.
