The Sharks break the Magic Round curse and finally win a captain’s challenge – and the match – with a gritty 28–18 victory over the Eels. Chris is back from Vegas with a dodgy throat, Boldo is buzzing from the win, and the Sharks fans are riding high. We break down every big moment from Talakai’s 30-second cameo to Kennedy’s clutch cutout ball, Trindall’s 40/20 kick, and that glorious captain’s challenge.

We ask:

• Should Cam McInnes get more credit?
• Is Nicho finally getting his flowers?
• Was that a penalty try or not?
• And what the hell is going on with Jack Williams not making any mistakes?

Plus: • Two Point Oh dials in from the press conference • Lats pops up for post-match commentary

We’re winding back the clock to Round 11, 2003, where the Sharks snapped a seven-game losing streak in Newcastle in one of the wildest wins of the era. Matty Williams dives into a chaotic clash featuring three Noddy intercepts, a Paul Gallen send-off, and a stirring comeback to knock over a star-studded Knights side.

It’s Kimmorley v Johns. Gallen v the judiciary. And a rare moment of 2003 joy in an otherwise horrid season.

Join us as we relive the chaos, controversy, and cult heroes from a classic night at Marathon Stadium.
