Was a close game where one side dominated the first 40 and the other the second. Ultimately the difference between a grandstand finish and a safe Sharks win was a debateable video-ref call.
Good time for the Roosters to get the wake up call and pretty impressive to see them get dominated for the first time in ages, and come out in the second half and totally dominate and display their own ability to score points quickly when needed.
well said... a fair appraisal of the game from a neutral.
the roosters were ambushed and should never had conceded so many points in the first half, regardless of the dud calls they received.
never stopped trying and while the roosters were trying to win, cronulla were trying not to lose.
some very dubious calls though, especially the disallowed try early in the second half which mysteriously awarded a penanlty to cronulla even after they had knocked on.....
sheck suplexed on his head (pomeroy)drops ball backwards, cronulla knock on, sharks ball
pearce rightly questions ref
