Stadium(s)
The match takes place at the historic Sharks Stadium, also known as Endeavour Field historically, and Shark Park to fans, which is one of the smaller and most historic stadiums in the NRL.
Despite that, it can often have one of the best atmospheres in the competition, especially for a match such as this one when there will be a decent Rabbitohs contingent in the ground.
The stadium was originally built in 1966 and has undergone plenty of changes since then to where it is now mostly a modern stadium, with 4 distinct stands.
It features one main stand, that also houses corporate facilites that is multi levelled and fits in the wrap around section of the stadium.
The other side of the field features a double level stand with some more corporate boxes that stand on its own.
One end of the stadium features a single tier all-seater stand whilst the other end is a small bank of seats with a grass banking behind it.
The ground as an enviable location sitting right on the banks of the Woolooware Bay offering incredible views for those in attendance.
Location
The Sharkies represent the Cronulla and Sutherland Shire areas of the Australian city of Sydney.
Cronulla is around 25km south of the downtown Sydney central business district and is known for its beautiful beaches that attract tourists looking to enjoy the sun and locals looking to live in a more relaxed location but still close to the centre of Sydney.
The ground is to the north-west of the beaches of Cronulla on Woolooware Beach, which sits just across the from Sydney Airport.
For those based internationally, the ground is located just a few miles west of Botany Bay, the landing site for Captain Cook.
About
The Shires is one of the most expensive parts of the city and gives the club a different cliental from a club such as Souths, who are historically a club of the working class in the city, although both do now have fans from across the city and country.
Sydney is often thought of as as the Rugby League capital of the world and is home to numerous clubs both in the topflight and in lower levels so despite both been based in Sydney, this isn’t often thought of as a derby game, but it does have that extra edge to it and a big game feel.
