Half time Sharks 10 Wyong 0. My half time analysis:
Young: Playing on the wing, has made a number of good runs particularly from dummy half. Made a good take of a bomb too.

Slade: Spent the first thirty minutes at hooker and then moved to lock. Solid in defence, basically passed from dummy half except for one or two good runs.

Siosaia: Spent the first 30 minutes at prop, he made a number. of good runs particularly early. Made a lot of tackles.

Kirisome: Very quiet, not much involvement.

Dayne: Came on after 25 minutes, made a couple of good runs and a couple of important tackles.

Full time: Sharks 24 Wyong 0.

Vave made some more good runs in the second half but also made a couple of handling errors. Griffin made over 30 tackles. Not much more to add from first half analysis.

Sharks v Tigers NSW Cup live on Fox Sports at 1 pm next Saturday.
