Sharks v Roosters: Hiroti to centres; Big guns return - NRL.com
The second game in this week's Perth double-header, Cronulla will be looking to build on their impressive win over the Warriors when they take on the Roosters.
www.nrl.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent coverage:
-
The Roosters and Sharks have met in Perth as part of a Perth double-header, with the Roosters staging a dramatic comeback to beat Cronulla 34-22 in April 2026. This followed a tight first half and a high-energy second period as Sydney overturned an early Sharks lead. [sources: live blog and match report coverage from April 2026][2][3]

Prior to that, Cronulla’s elimination-final clash against the Roosters in 2025 ended 20-10 in favour of the Sharks, with a late Troby Rudolf try sealing the win for Cronulla. The Roosters opened the second half with a try by Angus Crichton but couldn’t close the gap.[1]

For context, the Roosters had a strong late-season run into the finals in 2025, while the Sharks also secured finals contention that year, with ongoing coverage of Perth-match double-headers in 2026.[5][1]
