Preview:
Paul Gallen is doing alright for a 37-year-old.
The Sharks’ second rower put the team on his back last week scoring a crucial 79th minute try to ice a 26-18 win over the Titans at Suncorp.
There was no such luck for Manly, however, as the injury bug once again stung Des Hasler’s side with the loss of Toafofoa Sipley to a knee injury.
The Sea Eagles have fought gallantly without the likes of Tom Trbojevic and Daly Cherry Evans over the last month, but the injury toll might finally be catching up. Manly struggled to contain the Broncos’ forward line last week, and despite owning two-straight wins over the Sharks, nothing will come easy against Cronulla’s defence.
Home-field advantage has played a big part in Cronulla’s season so far. The Sharks have lost just one of their four games at Shark Park, but Manly will enter this game with confidence knowing they’ve won four of the last five meetings.
Still, the Sharks have recovered from their early-season offensive woes to keep teams guessing. Cronulla leads the league in decoy runs and rank second in offloads, two problem areas that arose during Manly’s loss to Brisbane last week.
You can’t take the Sharks head-to-head at this price, but there’s some value to be found in the margin market considering they’ve won 12 games by 1-12 points over the last 12 months.
Tip: Cronulla Sharks at $1.54
