    Despite missing five players to State of Origin camps and three regulars through injury - the Bondi-based side have ended Cronulla's three match winning streak with a seven tries to three demolition in Gosford.

    The Roosters stay 11th - the Sharks hold fifth

    Meanwhile - four-time reigning premiers Penrith have slumped back to the bottom of the ladder following a 25-6 defeat to the Knights in Bathurst.
