THE TEAM NEWS
NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS
- New Zealand Warriors opted to part ways with head coach Nathan Brown after a string of performances and results with that decision being made easier by Brown’s reluctance to move to New Zealand when the Warriors return home later in the year.
- Having lost their last five while winning just one of their last eight, the Warriors have it all to do but interim head coach Stacey Jones is handed a boost with Josh Curran set to return from a knee injury.
Starting 13: Walsh, Watene-Zelezniak, Berry, Pompey, Montoya, Harris-Tavita, Johnson, Murdoch-Masila, Egan, Tevaga, Aitken, Harris, Murchie – Interchanges: Curran, Afoa, Lui, Sironen – Reserves: Lussick, Pene, Katoa, Arthars, Volkman
Unavailable: Addin Fonua-Blake, Vailiami Vailea
CRONULLA SHARKS
- Cronulla Sharks are struggling to shed their inconsistent tag and are now in the midst of an eight-game W-L sequence after suffering a heavy loss at the hands of Sydney Roosters last time out.
- The Sharks will be desperate to continue that run for an extra game as they seek to return to winning ways but they will also be eager to put in a strong performance with their hopes of achieving that aided by the return of Jesse Ramien from suspension.
Starting 13: Kennedy, Katoa, Ramien, Talakai, Mulitalo, Moylan, Hynes, Rudolf, Brailey, Hunt, Nikora, Wilton, McInnes – Interchanges: Tolman, Trindall, Hazelton, Fifita – Reserves: Tracey, Graham, Miller, Colquhoun, Hiroti
Unavailable: Dale Finucane, Jack Williams, Braden Hamlin-Uele, Wade Graham
THE PREDICTION
New Zealand Warriors will have the legendary Stacey Jones in charge for this contest after cutting ties with Nathan Brown. The Warriors are on a wretched run of form having lost their last five and things could get worse for them here against a Cronulla Sharks side that are more than capable of putting a score on them. The Sharks have been inconsistent for a while now but they are a class above the woeful Warriors and should win this one by at least eight points.
