Boldo and Franko are joined by Steven Russo from SEN Radio and 2SSR to talk all things Newtown Jets, the Sharks’ run home, and the fallout from Cronulla’s loss to the Roosters.

The boys take a closer look at which Jets players are standing out, who might be pushing into the Sharks conversation, and what the Newtown run home looks like.

Plus, Boldo unveils his Top 10 Underwhelming Cronulla Sharks Signings — not the worst players, but the signings where the expectation was bigger than the outcome.

• Roosters fallout
• Sharks Bally-M leaderboard update
• Newtown Jets watch

The ET Stand crew is back for the Round 16 debrief after the Cronulla Sharks went down 25-8 to the Sydney Roosters.

In this episode, we break down a frustrating night for Cronulla, including the return of Nicho Hynes and Blayke Brailey, the Sharks’ attack looking clunky, the lack of polish in the red zone, the discipline problems, the refereeing frustrations and the moments that swung the game away from the Sharks.

We also discuss whether the Sharks missed Toby Rudolf’s energy and line speed, how the Hynes-Trindall combination looked on return, the pressure around Cronulla’s highest-paid players, Blayke Brailey’s huge defensive effort in his comeback game and what the bye week needs to fix before the run home.

Plus, we go through the 3-2-1 votes, the Challenge Meter update and the live comments from Sharks fans.

The Sharks have pulled off one of their toughest wins of the season, beating the Warriors 10–8 in a tense, brutal, low-scoring Round 15 battle.

Boldo and Franko jump on straight after full-time to break down a game that had everything except attacking polish: a massive defensive effort, Braden Trindall’s clutch two-point field goal, Will Kennedy’s incredible late charge-down, the Sharks’ red-zone frustrations, and a forward pack that stood up against one of the competition’s best teams.

They also chat through the impact of missing Blayke Brailey and Nicho Hynes, the decision to take the two points early, the late Warriors penalty goal drama, the big 3-2-1 calls, and what this win says about Cronulla’s season.

Plus, Adam joins the show to share his family’s story and the Big Three Trek fundraiser supporting brain cancer research.

The ET Stand crew are back for another Tuesday Night Show, talking all things Cronulla Sharks from a fans’ perspective.

Boldo is joined by Franko and Francis Crossle from Southside Physiotherapy for a big Sharks episode.

We look back at Cronulla’s 34-12 win over the Dragons, update the Player 3-2-1 leaderboard, and go deep on the injury list with Francis, including Nicho Hynes’ calf injury and Blayke Brailey’s broken arm.

We also preview the Warriors match, with the Sharks missing a stack of key players including Addin Fonua-Blake, Briton Nikora, Nicho Hynes and Blayke Brailey.

There is also discussion around Sharks representation in State of Origin, Will Kennedy re-signing for another season, and Boldo’s Player Tiers returns with a Survivor theme.

Plus, the boys touch on the latest noise around Ocean Protect Stadium and why Sharks fans are not keen on anyone trying to move games away from the Shire.

Reports have surfaced suggesting the Cronulla Sharks could be forced to leave Shark Park from 2027.

But how much of the story is fact, and how much is speculation?

In this emergency ET Stand episode, Boldo and Franko dive into the reports that have spread across rugby league media and social platforms following comments made on Kenty Blitz regarding concerns some NRL officials may have about the condition of Shark Park.

The boys examine what was actually said, who has reported the story, the reliability of those sources, and whether the reporting has gone beyond the available evidence.

Boldo also shares what he has been hearing from his own contacts around the game and discusses what, if anything, Sharks fans should genuinely be concerned about.

Topics include:

• The original Kenty Blitz comments

• How the story spread across rugby league media

• The difference between rumour, opinion and reporting

• The future of Shark Park

• What the NRL's real concerns may be

• What Boldo is hearing behind the scenes

• Why Sharks fans should be careful before believing the headlines

The captain is sidelined... and so is Blayke Brailey.

With ET Stand skipper Boldo unavailable this week and Cronulla's on-field captain facing time on the sidelines through injury, Franko takes control as the Sharks prepare for life without one of their most important players.

How big a loss is Brailey? Who replaces him? Does Cronulla need to change the way they play? And can the Sharks continue their push towards September without their No.9 leading the middle?

This week the boys discuss the impact of Brailey's injury, run through the latest ET Stand 3-2-1 Player of the Year standings, preview the upcoming clash against the Dragons, and cover all the latest Sharks talking points from around the league.

With Boldo missing in action, Franko is in charge. What could possibly go wrong?

Join the discussion in the comments and let us know:

How should the Sharks replace Blayke Brailey?
