In the Round 12 NRL match preview, the Sharks are set to face the Roosters at Industree Group Stadium in Gosford this Saturday night.
Following a decisive win against the Storm, Cronulla is eager to strengthen their position in the top four.
Currently sitting in fifth place, the Sharks are in good form and have not been impacted by State of Origin selections.
On the other hand, the Roosters are struggling, occupying 13th place and missing key players due to representative commitments.
Notably, they will be without Angus Crichton, Connor Watson, Spencer Leniu, Lindsay Collins, and Robert Toia.
The absence of these five stars presents a significant challenge for the Roosters as they aim to secure a much-needed victory.
As both teams prepare for the clash, the Sharks will look to capitalize on their advantageous position and the Roosters' depleted lineup.
