The Sharks head down to Canberra for a do-or-die clash at GIO Stadium – and we’ve brought in some Raiders diehards to give us the opposition view.

David Abreu and Jamba join the ET Stand to break down the heartbreak of last week’s Raiders loss, what went wrong, and how Canberra can bounce back against Cronulla. We talk bunker controversy, key players to watch, the Viking horn, Goulburn pit stops, and even parking tips for travelling Sharks fans.

From Fogarty’s game management to KO Weeks’ speed, Ricky Stuart stories, and old favourites like Bradley Clyde, this one has everything you need to know ahead of Saturday night’s elimination final.

Who wins, who loses, and what to expect on the drive home? Tune in to find out.

On this special episode of the ET Stand Podcast, we sit down with Sharks royalty – Barry Russell.

A local junior who rose through every rep team, Russell went on to become the Cronulla Sharks halfback, Rothmans Medal winner, and later the club’s CEO. In this wide-ranging chat, Barry shares:

His journey from Taren Point Titans junior to Shark Park hero.

- Memories of playing alongside legends like Andrew Ettingshausen, Jonathan Docking, Gavin Miller, and more.

- Winning the Rothmans Medal in 1988 (and the famous white tuxedo story).

- The heartbreak of injuries that cut short some of the Sharks’ greatest late-80s campaigns.

- His transition into administration, taking on the role of Sharks CEO during a challenging period.

- Insights into the NRL today, the future of the Cronulla Sharks, and which players excite him most.

A must-listen for Sharks fans and rugby league tragics alike.

The boys were live on a massive Tuesday night, breaking down the Sharks’ gritty win over the Roosters and previewing the huge semifinal showdown in Canberra against the Raiders.

Boldo, Franko, Lats, and Kelly tackled all the big talking points – from Toby Rudolph’s barnstorming form and AFB’s dominance, to Billy Burns’ impact and Briton Nikora’s bench role masterstroke. They pulled apart the Roosters clash, fired back at biased media coverage, and gave Nicho Hines some much-deserved credit after his “respect” comments.

There was plenty of banter around Shark Park’s electric atmosphere, the scuffles in the stands, Ricky Stuart’s sideline blow-ups, and a deep dive into the Raiders’ strengths and weaknesses. The lads debated the best team line-up for week two, answered live fan comments, and ran through the NRLW and around-the-league injury news.

With finals intensity building, the panel laid out their predictions, shared some unforgettable fan stories, and kept the siege-mentality energy alive heading into Canberra.

Boldo and Franko dive straight into a memorable night at Shark Park as Cronulla downed the Roosters 20–10 to advance in the finals. From Ronaldo’s double and Toby Rudolph’s match-sealing try, to Nicho’s kicking game and the heated debate over “taking the two,” the boys break it all down with passion, laughs, and plenty of fan comments.

The panel also calls out Fox Sports’ one-eyed commentary, relives the electric Shark Park atmosphere, and looks ahead to what’s next in the finals. Expect strong opinions, banter, and the community spirit that makes the ET Stand special.

In this special Opposition Fan Preview, Boldo is joined by Roosters tragic and Fox Sports media director Tim Micallef as the Sharks prepare to face the Sydney Roosters in week one of the finals at Shark Park.

The chat dives into:

Why the Roosters are being called the NRL’s form team, with six straight wins.

James Tedesco’s career-best season, ball-playing improvement, and Dally M chances.

The key battle up front: Lindsay Collins and Spencer Leniu vs Addin Fonua-Blake and Toby Rudolf.

How Blayke Brailey’s running game could unlock the Sharks’ attack.

Nicho Hines’ current form and what scares the Roosters most about Cronulla.

A look back at the tight 13–12 Roosters win in 2023 and what’s changed since.

Tim’s fearless predictions on field goals, anytime try scorers, and whether the Sharks are the Roosters’ “bunnies.”

A wider media and broadcast perspective on the NRL’s record year, expansion clubs like the Dolphins, and debates around the competition structure.

It’s part tactical preview, part banter, and part dig at commentators (yes, Dan Ganane cops it).

Sharks fans, get set for a massive clash under lights at Shark Park – and join Boldo and Franco for the live Debrief straight after full-time.

It’s finals time and the ET Stand crew are live for a massive Tuesday night show! Boldo, Lats, Kelly, Franko, and Matty are all on deck to preview the Sharks’ blockbuster clash against the Roosters in Week 1 of the finals.

We break down Nihco Hynes’ cleared suspension, the Bulldogs hit-out, and whether the Sharks’ form is finals-ready. Franko gives his trademark realist’s take, while Matty digs into the history of Sharks vs Roosters finals, including painful memories from 2023. Kelly runs through the other finals fixtures, Lats delivers the latest social news, and Boldo drops his final Player Tiers heading into the business end of the season.

Plenty of banter, plenty of belief, and plenty of finals hype as the black, white, and blue march into September.
