Cronulla lost 24-20 to Canberra, missing a chance at the top four and suffering a major injury to playmaker Braydon Trindall.
Cronulla have blown a huge opportunity to move back into the NRL's top four with a painful and potentially fatal 24-20 loss to lowly Canberra.
Star Sharks playmaker Braydon Trindall also suffered a dislocated shoulder as the Dolphins held on to the all-important fourth spot with three rounds remaining before the finals.
Cronulla will rue not finding a match-winner, despite being camped on Canberra's line, set after set, for the final 10 minutes.
