Round 26s match of the round looms as a big match for the sharks, who need momentum going into the finals if they are to challenge the premiership. Last week a mediocre Sharks side ventured to Newcastle, and despite the efforts of a Jonah Lomu like try to Luke Covell and hardman Danny Nutley, were beaten by a better side the Newcastle Knights 44-14.
Souths on the other hands lost a nailbiter 30-16 at townsville, in what was one of the best losses by a side i can remember in weeks. Souths won of the form teams of the NRL winning 5 of their last 7 , will be looking to end the note on a high, while the Sharks will be seeking revenge after there narrow loss 24-14 a few months ago, which saw the Sharks reach one of their lowest moments in the events after, when representitive boom kid Luke Covell was controversially dropped for the next week for reasons undisclosed.
Key match ups see two former origin stars in shannon "the lion" hegarty up against luke covell. Hegarty, a much overated winger who has got some form back recently shapes up against cronullas favourite son , who is in a hot streak the past few weeks, carrying his side on several occasions, including a brilliant 20 point haul against Manly. Lukes new "ill run over you" (ALA jonah lomu) style play is one to look out for, and shannon will have to have is work cut out to stop him.
other key match up see paul "the sock" gallen vs ashley "where is my wallet" harrison. harrison , the money man , is a good player, but gallen is better, so i think will outplay him. gallen imo can make the australian team stilll
in conclusion souths will have to be on their game to shut down the sharks, who boast a side full of past and present representitives including david peachey,luke covell,nigel vagana,brett kimmorley,adam dykes and danny nutley just to name a few.
My Tip is that this game will be close, but sharks will just role over them as they are better and want revenge, so they wont loose. Sharks by 22
