Josh Hannay confirmed as assistant coach. At least Quigs will be happy about having an ex Gymea Gorilla on board!
Josh Hannay will make a return to the Sharks, joining the club as an assistant coach.
Hannay will be part of John Morris’ coaching staff at the club having most recently been caretaker coach at the Cowboys.
Hannay played three games for the Sharks in a controversial stint where he was relegated to park football — just a season after representing Queensland in State of Origin.
Cronulla were in deep discussions with Toronto Wolfpack coach Brian McDermott to join the club but border closures proved too problematic.

Morris is in the final year of his contract. The Sharks, who return to training next week, needed another assistant coach after Craig Sandercock joined Trent Barrett at the Bulldogs.
Cronulla will also announce the return of Darren Mooney as their head of football. Mooney had success at the club by having a strong hand in putting together their 2016 premiership roster before moving to Newcastle to help rebuild the Knights.
