The Cronulla Sharks return home to Toyota Stadium to host the South Sydney Rabbitohs in a huge round 24 match of the NRL. Join us for live NRL scores and commentary from 7.30pm AEST.
Both these top eight teams are last start losers and will be looking to return to the winners circle in a crucial showdown.
Cronulla (6th) went down to the Newcastle Knights on Monday night in a shock loss and their credentials will be questioned tonight against an impressive South Sydney team.
The Rabbitohs (3rd) looked lost last Friday against the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles and it will be their halves that need to fire if they are to win. John Sutton and Adam Reynolds were outplayed last weekend, and their battle with Jeff Robson and Todd Carney is pivotal tonight.
Stuart Flanagan’s men hold a dominant record over Souths at Shark Park, winning 26 of the 38 matches at the venue. But this is a different Rabbitohs outfit playing with plenty of confidence and aggression.
Superstar Greg Inglis returns and slots straight back into fullback for the Bunnies.
Sam Burgess will also be looking to repay the faith after agreeing to a contract extension at Redfern.
The Sharks were the form side of the NRL earlier in the season. But the struggles of a long season have started to hurt them. Todd Carney has seemingly returned to form after a long post-State of Origin down period and the home side will be looking to the former Dally M Medallist to kick start their tilt at September.
Wade Graham will be missing for Cronulla with a sternum injury. His absence is a huge loss for the Sharks as he gives them an extra ball playing option.
It’s a mouth watering contest in the middle with veteran props Bryce Gibbs and Ben Ross coming up against Luke and Sam Burgess. You suspect Cronulla leaders Paul Gallen and Jeremy Smith will be fired up tonight. It is the business end of the season and the Sharks need their big men fired up and leading from the front.
Join the chat from 7.30pm AEST as we cover the action with live scores and commentary. If you’re watching or following along, drop in your thoughts about the game.

NRL Round 24
Sharks v Rabbitohs 20-7
Full Time
The Cronulla Sharks have downed the Rabbitohs 20-7 with a late surge that saw Tyson Frizell and John Williams score to come from a point down after Adam Reynolds kicked Souths to the lead.
In a horrendous game of footy, Souths simply didnt apply any pressure or ask any questions of the Sharks defensive line. Sutton and Reynolds had plenty of field position to play with but repeatebly bombed Cronulla with no success. Both sides were guilty of poor finishing and lack of control. The Sharks done enough late to secure two vital points.

Cronulla more committed in defence.Gallen played in his usual non stop fashion.Frizzel made tremendous impact as a newcomer,whenever he had the ball,and scored a vital try.Inglis kept quiet in attack.
Carney directed play and de Gois was revelation in attack.
The place rocked ,with the big crowd,at the end of the game.Semis at last,after seemingly eons in wasteland.
The game only livened up in the last qtr,when the Sharks finally showed some attack.
I’ll settle for a win ,against one of the faves.
Doesn’t get easier next week:The Storm ,Melbourne monday night.

Cronulla lead Souths here at halftime 6-0 after an absolute shocker of a half. Both sides have made plenty of metres in the first stanza, but inbetween has been plenty of poor choices, errors and bad kicks. I actually feel sorry for the patrons here tonight after seeing that.
Sharks have looked ten times better than the Bunnies, but somehow they only lead by a converted try. That try went to Andrew Fifita after running onto a Jeff Robson offload. Lets hope the second half improves for the sanity of viewers across the country.

Cold conditions tonight here at Shark Park for a big match between the Sharks and the Rabbitohs. Big night for the two forward packs and an even bigger night for John Sutton and Adam Reynolds after last weekends disapointment at Bluetongue Stadium. Kickoff in about 30 minutes.
