Tuesday's Expert Wrap - NRL Round 16

We've arrived at the end of Round 16 of the 2014 National Rugby League Telstra Premiership! Check out all the results, reports and player of the year points right here.

Friday night saw the return of the double header for a week - the NSW game saw the second Grand Final re-match with Manly getting the chocolates over the Roosters, while north of the border the Sharks snapped a three-game scoreless streak to defeat Brisbane 24-22 at Suncorp. Saturday night's matches finished with the Tigers scraping home in a tight one over the Raiders at a cold Campbelltown, while the Cowboys upset the Rabbitohs with yet another strong home win in Townsville. Sunday bought an end to Penrith's dream run of wins at the hands of the Warriors, and the Knights managed to record back-to-back wins with a well-fought grind over the Eels. The round of close results finished with the Dragons gaining redemption over the Storm in Wollongong.
