The ladder-leading Jersey Flegg Sharks are back in action this weekend following a long mid-season break, travelling to Auckland for a game against the Warriors on Saturday.
The Sharks haven’t played since going down to the Bulldogs in a round 16 match played on July 1, with the ninth-placed Warriors to present a difficult challenge in the match which is scheduled for the early kick off time of 10am (NZ time).
Following seven wins in succession the Sharks were well-beaten by the Bulldogs in what was their first loss since round six and only their second defeat of the season, with the Warriors game providing the perfect opportunity for Daniel Holdsworth’s team to get back on track as they build towards the competition finals.
Similarly, the Warriors haven’t played since June 30, in a match they won 26-24 over the North Sydney Bears, and sitting three points out of the top eight will be desperate for a victory to remain in finals contention.
The game between the Sharks and Warriors gets underway at 10am local time (8am AEST) at Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland, with the teams listed below.
