NRL's dramatic week featured surprising results, injuries, and shifting top eight hopes as the Panthers and Sharks excel.
It has been another dramatic week in the NRL, with a handful of surprise results and plenty of injuries ensuring the projected top eight is anything but set in stone with half a dozen weeks remaining.
The Penrith Panthers returned to the winner's circle and are still on track to claim the minor premiership, while the form of the Cronulla Sharks made plenty sit up and take notice on Sunday afternoon.
Elsewhere, the St George Illawarra Dragons have all but locked up the wooden spoon, while the race for the top eight is still on, with the Manly Sea Eagles putting in an awful showing, the Melbourne Storm all but extinguished, and the Canberra Raiders keeping their hopes alive.
Here is every team's run home, projected finishing position, and best and wost-case scenario with six weeks to go in the season.
