This win not only gave the Tigers their second consecutive victory but also left the Sharks on edge, waiting to see if they will clinch a spot in the NRLW finals for the first time in their history.

The Sharks, on the other hand, suffered a blow with three key forwards landing themselves in hot water and two more forced to sit out due to injuries.

Holli Wheeler, Talei Holmes, and Vanessa Foliaki were all in the referee's book for their actions on the field, while Rhiannon Byers had to be helped off due to a leg injury.

Lock Brooke Anderson also had to undergo a late Head Injury Assessment after a heavy hit.
