Morris has been on each side of the St George Illawarra-Cronulla rivalry and is properly positioned to present his ideas on Sunday night time’s encounter. He joins Fox Sports Lab NRL host Eloise Sohier to dissect the ultimate sport of the weekend.
It might be a case of ‘who fixes it, wins’ when Cronulla and St George Illawarra try to rebound from last-start defeats of their NRL native derby on Sunday night.
The Sharks’ clunky assault was on the core of their loss to Canberra, whereas St George Illawarra have to desperately pinpoint the explanation behind their late-game fade out towards Brisbane that led to them conceding 22 factors within the remaining 10 minutes.
Speaking contained in the Fox Sports Lab, NRL nice Josh Morris mentioned the return of Nicho Hynes from a calf harm was a distinction maker for the Sharks.
Morris had a foot in each camps as a participant. He made 46 appearances for St George Illawarra to begin his NRL profession and 25 for Cronulla in his latter years as a part of his glittering 325-game profession
He questioned whether or not the Dragons may finish their five-game dropping streak towards the Sharks.
“The Sharks bring back Nicho Hynes this week, he’s a massive inclusion, the Dally M Medallist,” Morris mentioned.
“They’ve been a little clunky. Hynes will bring back that attack.”
Cronulla misplaced their manner in Canberra after their 6-0 lead changed into a 24-10 deficit halfway via the sport.
“(Coach) Craig Fitzgibbon wouldn’t be happy with the way that they faded in last week’s game, defensively,” Morris mentioned.

“He’ll have them humming. He knows how important these clashes are and I think the Sharks are a good thing.”
The Dragons suffered a good larger defensive lapse, conceding 4 tries in 10 minutes after scores had been tied 18-all to go down 40-18.
“They were right in the game until the 70th minute and then you saw the Broncos run away with it,” Morris mentioned.
“They need to figure out where they went wrong and make sure it doesn’t happen again because these rivalries are so close, one mistake could be the difference between winning and losing.”
There had been some positives for coach Anthony Griffin’s aspect, notably the event of fullback Tyrell Sloan, winger Mathew Feagai and five-eighth Jayden Sullivan.
“I thought their young fellas performed really well and they’ll need them to perform really well again if they’re to win,” Morris mentioned.
