Can the Sharks keep their unbelievable steak alive against the cellar dwelling Knights?

First vs last in the Shire on Sunday afternoon is sure to create a few sparks. Cronulla are aiming for 15 straight wins against the last place Knights who have shown some real commitment and effort in recent weeks but have still been unable to secure a win. Nathan Brown is improving this inexperienced squad and the improvement made throughout the year is exciting to see. This will be a huge test for them and will be interesting to see how much the Melbourne game took out of the Novacastrions.

You know what?

I'm backing the Knights in this one, just because nobody thinks they can and the Sharks have become so used to knocking off better teams that they won't aim up for this one like they're expected to.

It'll be the loss Cronulla had to have, release the pressure of the winning streak and they won't drop their bundle again in the run to the finals...

But you have a short memory, we caned you on your home turf...despite your improved showing, nothing will be too different.

I respect your opinion but it's just another understating us...there is no way we ell lose this game...we know how to win!!!

Lol, it's pretty funny how arrogant and condescending a string of wins/good form can make supporters of a side that until very recently were in the Knights position.

Obviously you'll probably smash us (especially with a new wave of injuries/suspensions) but stranger things have happened . The Knights almost won their past 2 (one of which against Melbourne) and the the Sharks are going to lose one eventually and that's what Knightmare's point was...not "understating" the Sharks. Obviously highly unlikely it will happen this week but the arrogance when your side was very recently in a state like the Knights is pretty rich.

Settle mate, I feel for the Knights. It's not good for the game.

Not arrogant, just have watched my team for 40 years & know them inside out.

We are a different team than ever before....confident!

Mate, you've won 2 comps...be bloody thankful for that.

If the Sharks have the same mindset as their fans, it might be close.

If they have the mindset of professional footballers, they'll probably meet their fans expectations.
