[QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2743008, member: 1899"] Play Off For Fifth CRONULLA 38, BRISBANE 14 at Parramatta Stadium Cronulla produced close to the perfect game of football to send Wally Lewis’ Broncos crashing from the semi-finals in a play-off for fifth position at Parramatta Stadium. Wins by Brisbane over Norths and Cronulla over Illawarra cast the Sharks and the Broncos headling in a duel for a semi-final position. In a stunning exhibition of attacking football, Cronulla sent shockwaves through the league world with their seven tries to two assault. The match hung in the balance at 14-all shortly after halftime but the power and precision of Cronulla’s onslaught left the Broncos in a rabble. Fullback Jonathan Docking, playing the finest game of his career, was simply unstoppable, slicing through Brisbane’s defence almost each time he retrieved a kick. And when award-winning second-rower Gavin Miller took control of the game, his ball play and individual skills were mesmerising. Miller scored one try, his first for the season, and threw the vital pass for most of the other five tries. Cronulla’s was a rare exhibition of teamwork and commitment. Brisbane, on the other hand were a shadow of the team that helped set the pace over the early rounds on the Winfield Cup. Cronulla Sharks 38 (Wilson, Miller, Speechley, Ettingshausen, Hatch, Davidson tries; Wilson 7 goals) defeated Brisbane Broncos 14 (Hancock, Lewis tries; Matterson 2, French goals) Brisbane Broncos Tony Currie, Michael Hancock, Peter Jackson, Chris Johns, Brett Plowman Wally Lewis, Gary French Scott Tronc, Greg Conescu, Sam Backo, Gene Miles, Brett Le Man, Terry Matterson Reserves: Andrew Gee, Joe Kilroy, Allan Langer, Shane Duffy Cronulla Sharks Jonathan Docking, Alan Wilson, Andrew Ettingshausen, Mark McGaw, John Davidson Michael Speechley, Paul Bishop Guy Picken, Michael Porter, Danny Lee, Dan Stains, Gavin Miller, David Hatch Reserves: Glenn Coleman, Arthur Pappas, Chris Quinn, David Harris [/QUOTE]
