Cronulla really screwed the pooch. They had all the ball yet constantly came up with a bunch of unforced errors.
That's twice they've effectively lost a game due to a long range intercept try.
In the end, the complexion of the Top 4 seems right. At their best, Melbourne have been a better side than Cronulla and should pose a bigger threat than the Sharks. In fact, I'm really looking forward to Bellamy's approach to that game and whether he can throw a real spanner into the finals series by forcing Sydney onto the other side of the competition and grab a home prelim final. I have difficulty envisioning that but it would certainly make for an interesting twist.
You'd have to think Canterbury will win setting up...
Sydney Roosters vs Melbourne Storm
Brisbane Broncos vs North Queensland Cowboys
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs vs St George Illawarra Dragons
