The Cronulla Sharks are looking to nail down their spot in the top four when they take on the Canterbury Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium in the final round before the finals. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match from 2pm (AEST).

The Sharks have had to contend with salary cap dramas during the week, but they’ll need to put that aside and make sure they bag these two points to secure a double chance in the finals.

Coach Shane Flanagan has made one change to the team that beat Newcastle at home last week, with five-eighth Matt Moylan returning from a hamstring injury. That forces Flanagan’s son, Kyle, out of the team, after he made his first-grade debut last week.

The 12th-placed Bulldogs will be looking for their third win in a row over a top-eight team, after thrashing St George Illawarra 38-0 last weekend and pipping the Warriors 27-26 the week before.

Coach Dean Pay has named the same team that thrashed the Dragons.

Today will be the last game in the blue and white jersey for the Morris twins. Ironically, Josh will be joining the Sharks next season, while Brett is off to the Roosters.

Prediction
Cronulla by 7 in a tough match against the improving Bulldogs.
