At halftime, the Sharks lead the Raiders 30-0 at GIO Stadium with Cronulla star Nicho Hynes putting on a masterclass.
Hynes kicked a 40/20 and then scored on the ensuing set to give the Sharks their fifth try.
Cronulla have suffocated the Raiders with stout defence, but with that said, the home side have offered very little with the ball in hand.

The Raiders had a golden opportunity to score in the 25th minute when Danny Levi backed up and Xavier Savage broke down the left, but the hooker dropped it cold when just 20 meters in front of an open try line.

MATCH PREVIEW
The Raiders will host the red-hot Cronulla Sharks at Canberra’s GIO Stadium for their Round 8 clash on Sunday afternoon.
The hosts will be without halfback Jamal Fogarty, who suffered a bicep injury against the Broncos last weekend, while the Sharks have been boosted by the return of winger Sione Katoa, who missed last week’s match against the Cowboys due to suspension.
Cronulla, who have only suffered one defeat this season, will clinch the top spot on the NRL ladder if they topple the Raiders this weekend.
Kick-off is scheduled for 4.05pm AEST.
