They edged Canberra last weekend and fought back against Parramatta for a famous victory two weeks ago.
They are finding ways to win at the moment even when they are not playing well.
Cronulla has been inconsistent this season but they pipped the Knights by two points in a confidence-boosting game.
The Sharks’ chances have also been improved with the news that Jonathan Thurston is out.
Rory Kostjasyn will partner Michael Morgan in the halves. Patrick Kaufusi will make his NRL debut from the bench in place of Sam Hoare.
Cameron King has also been named on the bench.
Cronulla are unchanged from round 15, though skipper Paul Gallen has been picked as the 18th man.
