22 all

End to end stuff as we enter "field-goal time" here.

Destruction for the hosts, heartbreak for the visitors last week. Both these sides need a victory for different reasons. Not a lot of fans in at Cbus Super Stadium today. Cronulla are about to take to the field in their black alternate strip, while the Titans will wear their usual aqua blue strip.
