A second half trouncing of the Wests Tigers on Sunday has the Jersey Flegg Sharks with a bounce in their step ahead of their round six clash against the South Sydney Rabbitohs.
After what could be best described as a clunky first half, the Flegg Sharks clicked into gear in the second period, turning a 6-4 lead at the break into a 38-4 thumping of the Tigers as they improved their position on the table with a third win (plus one draw) from five matches so far this year.
The Sharks forward pack dominated their opponents after half time, making room for the likes of fiv eighth Manaia Waitere and the outside backs to complete the demolition job on the Tigers, with the Cronulla side now sitting in second position on the Flegg ladder.
Understandably the Sharks have limited the changes to their team to face Souths, with Jack Martin earning a promotion to the NSW Cup and local product Alec Brennan replacing him in the starting side in the front row in one of the few alterations to the line up.
The Sharks at Souths Jersey Flegg match is scheduled for an 11am kick-off at Erskinville Oval on Saturday. See the Sharks team listed below.
