Another game where the Sharks had a winning opportunity, only to see victory slip through their fingers in the dying moments, has them now under pressure and desperate for a change of fortune as they look to remain in the hunt for a finals berth.
With the scores 10-all and less than three minutes left on the clock, a Panthers field goal put their opponents ahead, before a try on the fulltime siren saw the Jersey Flegg Sharks fall to a fourth successive defeat, with all four losses coming with the young Cronulla side well and truly in the contest going into the final period of the respective matches.
This week the Sharks will attempt to turn it around when they travel to the newly named 4Pines Stadium, formerly Brookvale Oval, to tackle the Manly Sea Eagles in a round 15 match.
The Sharks go into the game in seventh position and with just five teams qualifying for the Jersey Flegg Finals, have work to do in their last eight matches.
The Sea Eagles had a round 14 Bye and are currently ninth on the ladder.
The match is scheduled for a 1pm kick-off, with the Sharks team listed below.
