New Zealand Warriors vs Cronulla Sharks Preview

Sharks coach Josh Hannay will be stressing the importance of a win this week with his side desperately clinging to a spot inside the eight.

Cronulla has managed only two wins from its last five games as they look to forget all about last week’s ugly loss to Manly at Suncorp.

The Warriors are still a mathematical chance at playing finals thanks to a narrow win over the Tigers, while they’ll also be out for some revenge after losing by eight points to Cronulla when they met earlier in the year.

Winning back-to-back games has proven a problem for New Zealand, but this is a very winnable game with some reinforcements returning.

Addin Fonua-Blake, Chad Townsend and Chanel Tavita-Harris are all a chance at playing this week, and the trio will no doubt have plenty of opportunities against a Sharks outfit that has conceded more points than it’s scored.

Sporting a 5-3 record as the line underdog at home this year, the Warriors look a much better chance than the double-digit spread suggests.
