The kings of the grind, the trench warfare specialists, win first and entertain second - thats the motto of the Cronulla Sharks in this years NRL Premiership. Led by Greg Bird and a band of virtual no-names, the Sharks under Ricky Stuart now move to 8 points atop the NRL Ladder and have blown everyone away with their NRL Results.
Last night they played the South Sydney Rabbitohs, also masters of the boring play but it was the closeness of the contest that got everyone interested. Coach Jason Taylor nearly costing their team 2 points had they won, pulling his team lead by Roy Asotasi and David Kidwell to the sidelines after a try was scored.
The win has strong Origin connotations for the Sharks, with Greg Bird and Bretty Kimmorley pushing their cases and even Brett Kearney looking good for a bolter spot somewhere.
The Bunnies are now zero from 5 and being winless after 5 Rounds really makes their NRL Results a tough ask to make the Top 8 finals. With the pressure mounting, they desperately need Craig Wing and Issac Luke back before it's too late.
