Joined by ET Stand debutant Glen Thompson, the boys unpack the cult Sharks concepts of “Sweet Justice” and “Fair Justice” and how they apply to this current side.

The show also dives into the return of the Disruptor discussion and the growing impact of set restarts and six-agains on momentum, with a bigger question emerging about whether the game is shifting towards blowout patterns rather than back-and-forth contests.

Around the grounds, we look at the Storm’s trajectory, Parramatta’s struggles under Jason Ryles, pressure building at the Dragons, and whether Perth can ever truly become a rugby league market.

Boldo, Franko and Chris Kelly dive into the current state of the squad, including a deeper look at the centre position and how Cronulla might shape their backline moving forward. There is also a strong discussion around squad depth, with Boldo proposing a more strategic rotation model, questioning whether the Sharks should be managing their forwards and key players more like elite European teams to stay fresh for the back end of the season.

Franko brings the latest updates from the lower grades, while the team also runs through the latest 3-2-1 leaderboard and touches on key storylines across the league, including developments around Flanagan and the Dragons.

With momentum building and tougher challenges ahead, this episode sets the scene for a defining stretch of the Sharks’ season.

After tipping against Cronulla, Boldo is more than happy to be wrong as the boys break down a performance that showed control, execution and glimpses of what this side can be at its best.

The episode covers key moments from the match, standout performances across the park and the attacking shape that led to points, including big contributions from Kennedy, Iro, Burns, Wilton and Talakai.

They also dig into what this result actually means. Is this a turning point or just a step in the right direction? Where are the Sharks really sitting compared to the top sides, and what still needs to improve?

As always, it is honest, one-eyed and grounded in how fans actually see the game, with plenty of back and forth between Franko and Boldo.

With Boldo in the air somewhere between Australia and Singapore, Franko and CK take control of the asylum for this week’s Tuesday night edition of the ET Stand.

The boys kick things off by breaking down the Sharks’ dominant 50–10 Round 1 win over the Titans, looking at the attacking structures, the performances of Trindall and Hynes, and what the result tells us about the direction of the team this season. They also debate whether the scoreline flatters the Sharks or simply reflects a team executing exactly what was required.

LIVE Tuesday Night Show _ Shark…

From there the focus turns to Round 2 and the massive clash against the Penrith Panthers in Bathurst. Can the Sharks finally break their recent hoodoo against the four-time premiers? What needs to happen through the middle of the field, and who needs to step up if Cronulla are to pull off the upset?

The show also dives into:

• Key moments from Round 1 across the NRL

• The evolution of the Sharks’ attacking shapes close to the line

• Early season player form and 3-2-1 voting

• Which Sharks players are most at risk of being poached by rival clubs

• Predictions for Sharks vs Panthers

Plus plenty of the usual ET Stand banter, fan comments, and a bit of chaos with the hosts left unsupervised.

They break down the context behind the result, explaining the heavy rotation, the inexperience across the backline and what the coaching staff were likely trying to get out of the hit-out. There’s a detailed look at which young players impressed, who missed their chance, and which names Franco is quietly tipping as future first graders.

Regular caller Williams 2.0 joins the show to defend Sam Stonestreet, talk season expectations and plant the flag for a top-four finish, while journalist Stephen Russo calls in from Henson Park to describe the atmosphere, the crowd, the $20 million ground upgrade and how the game looked from the sideline.

Boldo, Franko, Lats, and Kelly tackled all the big talking points – from Toby Rudolph’s barnstorming form and AFB’s dominance, to Billy Burns’ impact and Briton Nikora’s bench role masterstroke. They pulled apart the Roosters clash, fired back at biased media coverage, and gave Nicho Hines some much-deserved credit after his “respect” comments.

There was plenty of banter around Shark Park’s electric atmosphere, the scuffles in the stands, Ricky Stuart’s sideline blow-ups, and a deep dive into the Raiders’ strengths and weaknesses. The lads debated the best team line-up for week two, answered live fan comments, and ran through the NRLW and around-the-league injury news.

From Nico Hines’ masterclass and silky ball-playing to Mawene Hiroti’s breakout performance on the right edge, we break down the big talking points, standout players, and where this leaves the Sharks heading into the run home.

We cover:

• The attacking flair on display and late defensive lapses.
• Hiroti’s impact and what it means for Jesse Ramien’s spot.
• Nico’s confidence and near-record points haul.
• The injury blow to Cam McInnes and who should step up at lock.
• The rise of Jesse Colquhoun, Tom Tapua, and cult favourite Hoepa Puru.
• Our 3-2-1 votes and fan reactions live from the stands.

We tackle the Brit Nikora suspension drama, Jesse Ramien’s injury, and Billy Burns’ contract extension before running through the latest from the Jets, Jersey Flegg, and NRLW squads. There’s a frank debate on Nicho Hynes’ form, captaincy options, and why the attack feels so stale against quality opposition.

In the second half, it’s a full preview of the Titans clash: team lists, key match-ups, Des Hasler’s influence, and what the Sharks need to do to avoid another ambush. Expect banter, blunt assessments, and a few laughs as the crew vent, debate, and try to find a spark for the run home.

From clunky attack and frustrating fifth-tackle options, to Trindall’s quiet night and Daniel Atkinson’s mysterious bench role, this one had it all. We talk bunker blunders, missed opportunities, and whether the Sharks' safety-first style is killing their edge.

Fan-favourites Rob V, Blake Williams and 2.0 all dial in with their takes, player ratings, and pointed critiques – plus we debate the great “take the two” dilemma and give Will Kennedy some overdue flowers. There’s even time for a discussion on Belinda Sharpe, referee performance, and whether the Sharks have the firepower to threaten in finals footy.

A frustrating watch, but two points are two points. Let’s just say – the ET Stand panel weren’t popping champagne.

Up, Up Cronulla.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this jam-packed 90-minute episode of The ET Stand, the panel grapples with the Cronulla Sharks' current plight following their fourth loss in five games — this time a 30–6 defeat to the Storm in Melbourne. Host Boldo is joined by Chris Kelly, Franco, Matty Williams, and special guest commentary from the fans as they ask the big question: Do the Sharks need fixing — and if so, how?

🔧 Fixing the Sharks Debate

• Franco, watching on delay and free from emotion, thinks the performance was better than fans and media suggest — especially defensively until the last 15 minutes.
• The panel unpacks key effort errors: a poor challenge, a disastrous tap-on, and more misreads.
• Chris argues the team lacks physical intimidation and urgency.
• Kelly makes a passionate case for holding the course: “We’re battered, flat, and fatigued, but it’s not broken. This bye is coming at the perfect time.”
• Matty and Boldo raise concerns over systemic prep issues, fitness, and player management. Boldo provides a detailed list of six “actual fixes” including smarter challenge use, better injury return decisions, and simplifying the bench rotation strategy.

📊 Boldo’s Melbourne-Themed Player Tiers

Boldo rolls out his signature segment with a tourism spin:

• Players compared to Melbourne icons like Docklands (Nicho & Nikora – expensive but underwhelming), St Kilda Beach (Atkinson – doesn’t deliver what it promises), and Luna Park (Ronaldo – flashy and solo).
• Blayke Brailey earns top billing, while injured Kade Dykes is likened to Qantas – sorely missed but still flying high in fans’ minds.
• Reactions range from Matty calling it Boldo’s “most accurate tiering yet” to Franco gently critiquing player placement for theme consistency over form.

💬 Fan Fixes & Comment Chaos

• Listeners submit their solutions: Talakai to lock, Ronaldo to centre, four-forward bench, Stone Street call-ups, and more.
• Debate erupts over Will Kennedy’s future, Trindall’s inconsistency, and whether Jesse Ramien and Oregon Kaufusi should be flicked.
• Assistant coaching changes are floated, with Nathan Brown and Mick Potter getting support.
• Paul in the comments triggers a podcast first — getting booted for defending Jack Williams as an Origin pick. “We’re not copping that!” shouts Boldo.

🎞 History Corner

Matty takes us back to past seasons where Sharks fell off a cliff post-finals — especially 2003, 2009, and the strange 2019 transition.

🎭 Around the League & NRLW Preview

• Chris runs through Origin III team news, Vanessa Foliaki’s retirement, and the start of the NRLW season.
• The Sharks NRLW team kicks off Thursday night with 13 returning grand final players.
• Big praise for coach Tony Herman and excitement about the season ahead.

It’s Jimmy’s ET Stand hosting debut—much like Atkinson, he’s been sitting on the bench, but unlike Atkinson, he actually got involved.

In this monster debrief episode, we unpack:

• How the Storm exposed our brittle edges early
• Will Kennedy’s concrete boots and aerial woes
• Calls to move Talakai to the middle and give Stonestreet a go at fullback
• A scathing fan reaction from the Melbourne Sharks Bay (feat. 2.0 and Tim from The Shark Cage)
• A heated discussion on Fitzgibbon’s selection loyalty and tactical rigidity
• The search for anyone worthy of 3-2-1 points
• Whether the season is cooked—or if we can jag a finals berth with two byes and five home games to come
• Plus, some in-the-stands crowd banter and a lesson in shutting up screaming kids

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Key themes:

• 🤯 Self-sabotage kings: From Atkinson’s ineffective bench stint to basic errors by Trindall, Ronaldo, and Kennedy, the boys break down how the Sharks beat themselves yet again.
• 🧠 Dumb Footy™: Calls for “the dumbest team in the NRL” fly as fans and hosts alike vent about repeated brain snaps, lack of accountability, and mental fragility under pressure.
• 🔁 Bench blunders: The Atkinson conundrum takes center stage again — why is he in the 17? What is his role? And how has Fitzgibbon not fixed this mess after how many weeks?
• 💬 Live fan commentary: The live audience pulls no punches — “a hundred out of ten dumb,” “Fitzy is a myth,” and “stop playing Atkinson at 14” are just the start.
• 🔄 Kennedy, Nicho & the backline puzzle: Calls to drop Kennedy, move Nicho to fullback, and shake up the spine entirely spark a heated positional debate.
• ⚔️ Defence? What defence?: Line integrity collapses, players stop mid-play, and it all comes undone — again. Talakai, Nikora and co. get called out for some soft moments.
• 🧃 And finally… the Tuesday night thumbnail might just read: "Stop. Playing. Atkinson."

This week’s ET Stand is a longer, looser, and way more unhinged episode than usual. Maybe it’s the rivalry. Maybe it’s the potato and gravy. Maybe it’s just Atkinson still being named on the bench. Either way, the boys go full footy deranged — and it’s glorious.

We cover:

• 🧨 Reactions to our own reactions: Did we overcook the Warriors fallout?
• 🎭 Nicho, Fitz & the big identity crisis – do the Sharks need a shake-up?
• 🧃 Atkinson. Still. There. WHY?
• 🏗️ The never-ending Leagues Club saga
• 🐉 Dragons preview turns into a full-blown therapy session
• 🤯 Family feuds, playground punch-ons, banned teachers, and unprintable hatred
• 📣 Comment section chaos + superchat mania (we raised $15 for the Leagues Club, folks!)
• 📰 Around the League: jerseys, origin bombshells, and CK’s 17th house move

This is one of those episodes — chaotic, hilarious, cathartic and packed with heart. Get around it.

Down 18-0 at halftime, the Sharks clawed their way back with a thrilling second-half performance, taking the match into extra time before Trent Barrett sealed it with an ugly, yet iconic, field goal in the 87th minute.
