    in my opinion Souths is a dangerous side, but not a good one ! Sharks are 3rd and Souths are sitting 12th, so I dont think they are having similar seasons.

    From what I have seen the Sharks are a very hard side to beat !! they are tough and complete their sets. They have won six in a row - which could mean they will be a little complacent, but considering how poor the Sharks have been for years, I would be dissapointed if they are.

    Souths have won 4 and lost 4 .. Their losses have come up against formidable opposition - Storm in Melbourne, Broncos, Warriors in NZ and the Roosters. Their wins have come against Penrith, Tigers, Dogs and Cowboys. They were very lucky to beat the Tigers and could have easily lost to the Cowboys but held on well, on the other hand they should have beaten the Roosters and blew that. The Penrith win shouldnt really be counted because they are that bad.

    Cronulla will miss playing at home but I dont think ANZ scares anyone .. I would put Cronulla closer to the bracket of the teams that have beaten the Bunnies - they play very well, I actually didnt like their performace last week, but despite winning by over 20 points, it should have been more.

    Also worth mentioning that the Sharks are top of the league in Meters gained, offloads and tackle breaks - impressive

    South have strong individuals, but they dont often win two in a row and I think Sharks will get home here

    I have played the Bunnies for action.

    at Centrebet. At 12PM, I get an email saying this: "SHARKS $2.03 TO MAKE IT 7 IN A ROW AGAINST THE RABBITOHS!"

    I checked the line at this point - it was -1.5 everywhere still.

    Within an hour of the email (now), Centrebet has moved the line from -1.5 to -3.5 and $2.03 to $2.25. None of the other books have moved it this far... They are definitely playing games and expecting a big win for the Rabbitohs. I'm happy to bet with them.

    I haven't kept stats, but I can't actually remember one of these losing when Centrebet touts a side, then moves the line dramatically. Now I don't know if this is because of team news or something in the last hour - anyone? -1.5 is still available at a few shops, so I suggest getting on if you like it. If you like the Sharks - play it at Centrebet.

    Gallen in, so is Sam Burgess though - may explain the favourable line movement for the Bunnies.

    I am listening to talk back radio ... they said Sam was unlikely, and Gallen will be given to the last minute. but I am assuming judging the line Burgess is in.

    Gallen will play. The $2.25 price on sharks is ridiculous! Jump on quick!

    If Gallen was ruled out, the market wouldve closed. Just like it closes for other big name players. And it wouldve re opened at around 2.60.

    Yes GALLEN is like GOD on the footy field!

    He strained a quad at training on Friday and didn't finish as a precaution. Gallen will play with broken legs, a strain wont keep him out LOL

    Watch foxsports 2 pre game show from 6pm...Burgess to be given a fitness test at around 6pm.

    Im having a small play on Souths/Sharks Half/fulltime paying $8.00

    Predicting the game to be tight with maybe souths leading at halftime, and then they fall apart in the second half

    $100 on the Sharks @ $2.25.

    Action plays because the value on Sharks is too hard to pass up.


    Play at your own risk*

    Good luck .. I was going to be all over Cronulla, but I think I will be alot more cautious now, it seems I have a bad read over this. Soo good luck, if anyone hears anything confirmed about Gallen please let us know

    I wouldn't go too hard on Sharks, even if all players are healthy. A small play on sharks is fine at this price.


    Sharks pumped souths last year with no Gallen*

    Sharks lost the plot after gallen was taken off with injury. Oh well, congrats to those that took souths
