Match Centre

Sharks go high on the kick and Cowboys on the front foot and will be first into FG position you'd think

Sharks start their first set inside their 20

GOLDEN POINT - So traditional rules come that we now off

GOLDEN POINT HERE WE COME

CORRECT CHALLENGE: Ronaldo played the ball legally

RONALDO LOSES IT - SHARKS CHALLENGE

Chad Townsend kicks and there's less than a minute

Nobody kicking any field goal attempts from long range at the moment as the Cowboys work it out of their own 20

Tackle 3 Sharks are just shy of Halfway

Sharks working the ball out of their 20

End to end stuff in the first set between both sides as the two sides have to work it out of their own end

TIME OFF - Luciano Leilua stays down wanting a penalty but nothing coming

Kyle Feldt so close - We're off to the bunker though and Adam Gee wants to make sure we get the right restart

NIKORA LOSES THE BALL FIRST SET

SUCCESSFUL CHALLENGE: Matt Moylan ruled to have put his foot back into the ruck

CAPTAINS CHALLENGE: Peta Hiku loses the ball but the Cowboys are challenging

This time it's Hiku that is kicking on the last as the Cowboys make good metres and go right; This time the kick goes into touch

Not the play the Cowboys needed as the shift right but the kick from Feldt just rolls and rolls towards Botany Bay and goes dead

CONTROVERSY? Chad Townsend kicks for Val Holmes in space and is taken out by the looks of things

PENALTY COWBOYS: Sharks caught inside the 10 and Cowboys into the Sharks half

Luciano Leilua loses the ball as the Cowboys try to shift the ball

Will Kennedy is over, straight through the middle and he turns out of the tackle to score

Jason Taumalolo throws a pass out the back to nobody that allows Nicho Hynes to get the ball

NO TRY - For me at home it looked pretty obvious that Val Holmes was taken out by Jesse Ramien and that's the decision of the bunker

Yep - He's the obstruction check

The Sharks are over but there will be a check for a potential obstruction; But anyways Connor Tracey is over in the corner and Nicho Hynes with a remarkable pass

Sharks almost create something spreading the ball out to Connor Tracey but the Cowboys cut it down and then Hynes struggles to get a kick away on the last and is tackled

Sharks are well and truly holding the momentum card right now

BUNKER: Adam Gee has gone up NO TRY as a kick from the Cowboys is put down by Nicho Hynes and then the bouncing ball is loose and the Cowboys pounce

Adventurous play from the Sharks as Hynes kicks inside his own 10 for Talakai who regathers it but doesn't do much with it

Good set from the Sharks causing issues and the Cowboys let the Sharks regather it and then put Teig Wilton to ground

PENALTY SHARKS: Sharks get a lucky penalty to some but a right call as Multialo had his legs taken out as the ball bounced and Nanai came through and took them out

SECOND HALF IS GO! The two sides locked up at 18-18 and we're none the wiser who goes to Week 3

BUNKER: Something out of nothing but we've got NO TRY live after Nicho Hynes field goal attempt is charged down and Nikora picks up the ball runs through kicks and now checking grounding

Crowd booing for an escort penalty but nothing is ever going to come from Adam Gee

THIS IS A SHOW AND A HALF - The Sharks down the left and Matt Moylan creating the space and Will Kennedy backing up and it's a catch and pass play to put Mulitalo in space before finding Kennedy

WOW - The Cowboys just lighting up Shark Park

Matt Moylan starts on the right then goes left and creates the overlap and the ball gets out to Nicho Hynes wrapping around the back and then Hynes finds Talakai to score

Great grab under pressure from Kyle Feldt as Nicho Hynes crossfield kick is defused well

Nicho Hynes goal line dropout is perfect and a terrible bounce for Nanai goes into touch

Scott Drinkwater kicks in behind the line and it's a good kick that forces a repeat set

Cronulla lucky there because the looked like there was a touch from Toby Rudolf but Adam Gee rules otherwise and the Sharks work it off their line

PENALTY SHARKS: Adam Gee happy to let the tackle go but Chris Sutton on the sideline not happy with the tackle and the Cowboys penalised for pressure on the neck

TOBY!!!! Back to back six agains and the Cowboys have to fight to defend their line and from 5m out Toby Rudolf charges at the line and gets over

So that was an odd one - We said the bunker would look at it but thinking it was for grounding but instead Gerard Sutton wanted to get technical and check for a driver which got the all clear

PENALTY COWBOYS: Royce Hunt penalised for a slow ruck and the pressure going back on Cronulla

The Sharks run the ball on the last but Tom Gilbert is brought down a metre short

GAME ON! Adam Gee refereeing his 11th finals match and 211th game overall calls time on and the Cowboys are using the ball first

As with every game this round, a minute silence for Her Majesty Elizabeth II after her passing on Thursday afternoon UK time.

Who joins the Panthers in week 3 - Will it be the Sharks joining their 1967 fam in the finals or will the Cowboys make their first prelim final since 2017
