A suspected broken arm to classy hooker Blayke Brailey has soured Cronulla's rousing 28-22 victory over Manly as the Sharks finally cracked the NRL's "Fozball'' code.
The Sharks burst Manly's bubble with some dazzling tries on Friday night, but the sight of Brailey trudging off midway through the second half was a major blow for his club and state.
The NSW hooker will await the result of scans before learning his fate ahead of State of Origin II in Melbourne on June 17.
With his superstar halves partner Nicho Hynes sidelined with a calf strain, Braydon Trindall delivered a playmaking masterclass to pilot the Sharks to back-to-back wins for only the second time in 2026.
Trindall bagged one try and had a hand or boot in three others as Cronulla wowed their home fans at Ocean Protect Stadium.
