Jesse Colquhoun Jesse Ramien 4. Jacob Saifiti 16. Daniel Saifiti 11. “I think he has been outstanding, he has got the ability to skip on the outside of players,” Fox league’s Steve Roach said. “The first of his career as well, proving what a dangerous player he can be on the right edge for the Sharks,” Voss said. The Sharks can wrap up second spot on the ladder with a win, ehile the Knights are playing for pride looking to end a tough season on a high in front of their long-suffering fans. “He was a star at that tournament and I think he will be good value for the Warriors, I don’t even know what position he will slot into, but I think he is in your 17 every week. “If you aren’t prepared to put your body on the line that is exactly what is going to happen, he has had a day out here this afternoon,” Roach said. “Metcalf scoops it up, and away he goes the young man, he does it in a canter,” Roach said. “He has been there best player so far, he has looked dangerous, he does it on his own from the scrumbase,” Fox League’s Steve Roach said. Craig Fitzgibbon’s side have now locked in second place and a home final against the Cowboys on the back of Briton Nikora’s “dangerous” hattrick.

Cronulla have confirmed a top-two finish by defeating Newcastle but lost centre Siosifa Talakai to an apparent ankle injury in the final minutes.

As rain teemed down in the Hunter, the Sharks lifted their intensity and scored within 43 seconds of the restart in the second half. But just as they did against Canberra in their last home game, the initially-competitive Knights fell away as the game went on and were unable to withstand repeated pressure close to the line. Sunday's 38-16 win at McDonald Jones Stadium was Cronulla's sixth in a row but ended on a sour note for the Sharks when State of Origin representative Talakai suffered his injury in a hip-drop style tackle from Mat Croker.

"We wanted to sign off on a good (regular) season with a win and earn the right to play at home (in the finals). we had a couple of moments that showed a lack of experience, so we got beaten in a couple of moments of experience, but I don't think it was through any lack of effort."

The Sharks confirmed their first NRL top-two finish since 1999 but the win came at a cost, with a NSW Origin star suffering an ankle injury.

“We’ll work hard over the summer and we’ll come back here and we’ll be bigger and better for it next year.” “It was pleasing that while we lost our way a little bit (in the first half) we had the ability and the footy in us to go, ‘No, we know what we’re doing here, let’s get back to it’,” Fitzgibbon said. As rain teemed down in the Hunter, the Sharks lifted their intensity and scored within 43 seconds of the restart in the second half. But just as they did against Canberra in their last home game, the initially competitive Knights fell away as the game went on and were unable to withstand repeated pressure close to the line. Newcastle were determined to finish their disappointing season on a positive note, and made the error-prone Sharks work hard to confirm their home qualifying final. Both men left the field in the final two minutes - Croker to the sin bin and Talakai to the casualty ward.

NRL Round 25 Sharks wrap up second spot with big win over Knights (ESPN)

A hat-trick to Briton Nikora has helped Cronulla to a 38-16 defeat of Newcastle that confirmed a first NRL top-two finish for the Sharks since 1999.

Newcastle have lost 10 of their 12 games at McDonald Jones Stadium, more than in their 2005, 2015 and 2017 wooden spoon seasons, and on seven occasions suffered defeat at home by 20 points or more. For all their effort, the Knights now finish the season having lost as many games at home as ever before. But just as they did against Canberra in their last home game, the initially-competitive Knights fell away the further the game went on and were unable to withstand repeated pressure close to the line.
