Wests Tigers vs Cronulla Sharks Preview
After a devastating loss in Townsville last week, the Wests Tigers are determined to bounce back as they host the Cronulla Sharks at CommBank Stadium on Thursday night. The Tigers suffered a humiliating 74-0 defeat against the Cowboys, their worst in history and the third-largest margin ever in the league. In contrast, the Sharks continued their winning momentum from before their Round 17 bye, securing a convincing 52-16 victory over St. George Illawarra. This matchup poses another challenging night for the Tigers, who have been outscored by a total of 80 points in their last three encounters with the Sharks. Cronulla will have Cameron McInnes starting at lock in place of the suspended Dale Finucane, while Toby Rudolf replaces Braden Hamlin-Uele. The Tigers will also make changes due to injuries, with Tommy Talau and Asu Kepaoa stepping in for David Nofoaluma and Brent Naden.
