The Sharks had a good win against the Warriors last round but are coming up against Storm side who suffered a shock loss at the hands of the Eels. Cronulla doesn’t want to be waiting for other results to know if they’re playing finals footy and need the win to secure their top 8 spot, whilst Melbourne will not only be out to avenge last weeks loss, they’re also looking to claim their second minor premiership in three years.
