The Cronulla Sharks have delivered a bruising victory over the Wests Tigers, but controversy has overshadowed their win in true Rugby League fashion.
After breaking their four-game losing streak with a dominant 58-6 win at Pointsbet Stadium, the Sharks were feeling on top of the world.
However, Tigers captain Api Koroisau was left seething over a contentious sin bin call in the first half.
With the Sharks leading 12-6 and gaining momentum, Koroisau's strong defensive play saw him strip the ball from Ronaldo Mulitalo, sparking protests from the Sharks players and a quick decision from referee Adam Gee to send him to the bin.
In true Rugby League spirit, the match was filled with drama and passion, with Koroisau's sin binning adding fuel to the fire.
The Sharks may have emerged victorious, but the sin bin drama will be a talking point for weeks to come.
