Titans Update

The Canterbury Bulldogs player Jamal Idris (pictured right) has just signed a 5 year deal with the Titans "cheering". He has, as of Tuesday, rejected a deal from the Newcastle Knights which would've had him training under the super coach Wayne Bennett. Rumour has it the deal from the Knights was massive but Idris has chosen to focus his loyalty to the Titans.

As of the next season of the NRL Idris will play for the Titans under a 5 year contract. He is said to be quite sad for his departure from his teamates at the bulldogs but is excited to be moving on. One factor affecting his decision to move clubs was the advice from fellow indigenous player Preston Cambell.

Titans woeful Performance Against the Cowboys :(

Yes sadly this week the mighty Titans have yet again...lost.. They tried, they failed outting the loss tally to an uncomfortable 4. With one win this season and 4 losses and to top it off being bottom of the ladder the titans really needed a win this week to boost some fan support, sadly they are most likely lossing faith in their almighty. But that isnt to say they didnt put up a fight this week. Steve Michaels put up quite a galliant fight yet again, showing us throgh his recent performance that is someone to watch out for on wing maybe in origin in the next few years?? But still an overall dissappointing performance for the titans this week so lets hope they can lift their game up for the game this week against the west tigers and maybe get a few more victories on the lagger before the much anticipated clash against the parra in sydney!!cant wait!

Storyboard!

This is the story board of our blog. It's a rough sketch of the basic layout we will have when we complete our blog of the NRL teams the Manly Sea Eagles, Gold Coast Titans and the Parramatta Eels.

As you can see each week we each have our own little 'rant' about our respective teams. We hope to linking videos and images to be better showing our teams progress, skills and stats. Obviously the actual blog will contain colour and relevant background as well as much larger detail and longer text.

Round 5 - Manly Sea Eagles VS Cronulla Sharks

What a game!!! Sea Eagles steal the win from the Sharks!!!

Coach Des Hasler said the “football Gods must have been smiling on us today” as they won a heart stopping match at Shark Park 19-13.

Trailing 7-0 at half time, with 20 minutes to go in the second half, the Sea Eagles looked like they’d be heading back to Brookvale without the two competition points. But speedstar Michael Oldfield was the hero as he scored the winning try right on full time. The Sharks couldn’t believe what had happened. The Sea Eagles had won, unbelievably.

The Sea Eagles remained scoreless in the first half, despite coming close at one stage before being denied by the video referee.Their attack improved in the second half but were still struggling to match the Sharks’ strength. A try to Kieran Foran with 20 minutes left in the game had the Sea Eagles still in the match as they trailed 13-6.

Big George Rose took it upon himself to try and even the scores. He steamrolled a number of Sharks players in order to get his first try of the season. With a conversion from Daly Cherry-Evans there was only one point in it as the final 10 minutes began to tick down.

The remainder of the match was intense as the Sharks were trying to hold onto their lead, and the Sea Eagles were battling to snare the win.When Daly Cherry-Evans booted a field goal with less than a minute left, the crowd were preparing themselves for extra time.

But before you knew it, Michael Oldfield was racing down the sidelines to score as the full time buzzer sounded. The Sea Eagles were ecstatic as they ran to each other in celebration.

The Sea Eagles play the Warriors at Brookvale Oval on Saturday at 5.30pm.
