The Sharks are facing a crucial round 23 match against Souths, and they need a win in Perth on Saturday to stay ahead of the competition and keep their chances of making the Finals alive.
Despite three consecutive losses, the Sharks are determined to turn their luck around after a brave performance against the premiers, Penrith.
Although the 28-0 scoreline doesn't reflect their efforts, the Sharks showed great resilience, especially considering the last-minute changes in their backline due to Will Kennedy's injury.
Instead of making major positional changes for the upcoming game against the Rabbitohs, the Sharks have decided to keep Connor Tracey at fullback, as he did an impressive job filling in for Kennedy against the Panthers.
Nicho Hynes and Braydon Trindall will once again team up in the halves to lead the team.
With the NRL ladder becoming more congested and up to 12 teams still vying for a spot in the top eight, the Sharks are well aware of the importance of this match and the need to secure a victory.
