The son of one of the Sharks' greatest players has rallied fans of the beleaguered club to join in solidarity before they play the Titans at Sharks Stadium on Sunday in what will surely be the most emotion-charged season opener in the club's 46-year history.
Don Rogers, of the Cronulla Army, and son of club legend the late Steve Rogers, said Sharks fans were being asked to meet outside the ground at 4.30pm before walking in en masse as a show of unity with the club.
''We'll all be wearing our blue, black and white, and demonstrating we're not going anywhere,'' he said.
''We hope the club's not going anywhere, and we hope Flanno [stood-down coach Shane Flanagan] isn't going anywhere, and we're looking forward to October.'' Rogers said the club's support base was shocked at the situation, which was becoming ''progressively more concerning''.

''Cronulla fans were so excited, considering we've recruited so well,'' he said. ''We've been building for a couple of years and come through some hard times. This whole thing just stinks. I just hope the players can gel tighter and they get the support of the club, and they know the Sharks fans are there for them.''
A capacity crowd of more than 20,000 is expected for the 6.30pm fixture. ''Everyone's behind the boys 100 per cent, and we're still confident of a good year,'' Rogers said.
The Cronulla-Sutherland Supporters Club was keeping quiet on Saturday. But lifelong Sharks supporter Phill Cannan said many fans wanted more information about the situation. ''I want to know why they've done what they've done so I can understand it better,'' he said. ''If they've done something wrong they've got to be held to account, but you can't hold someone to account unless you know what's going on.''
Cannan rejected claims the drama could spell the end for the Sharks, saying the club's finances were stronger now. He said merchandise was sold out, and the biggest crowd would turn up on Sunday since the ground's southern stand was completed. ''If it came out the guys were doing wrong, and they knew they were doing wrong, then I'd be filthy on them,'' he said. ''But I wouldn't stop following the club.''
