Cronulla Sharks vs Gold Coast Titans Preview
Cronulla is yet to prove it can match it with the NRL’s top and second-tier contenders, having been stuck in a win-loss pattern since Round 5, while their only win over a team currently in the Top 8 was against the Eels in Round 2.
Last week’s 38-16 win over the embattled Warriors – fighting back from an early 12-point deficit – saw Sione Katoa and Ronaldo Mulitalo combine for five tries but told us little about the Sharks’ credentials.
However, they are adept at beating up on low-quality opposition…and the last-placed Gold Coast Titans fit very much into that category.
The 3-11 Titans have slipped to last on the NRL ladder after their ninth loss in 10 games, a 30-16 home defeat to the Rabbitohs. Justin Holbrook’s confidence-stricken side has the 14th-ranked defence and 13th-ranked attack.
AJ Brimson returns at fullback for Gold Coast after a week in COVID protocols, while Dale Finucane is in Cronulla’s extended reserves and could push into an unchanged 17.
Cronulla extended its winning streak against Gold Coast to seven matches with a 25-18 victory in Round 11. Expect the result to be considerably more convincing this time around in the Sharks’ backyard.
