The Lions lead at all breaks and at 3 Quarter time they had a 28 point lead , for a highly unlikely victory the Sharks needed to double their score.

Thompson , the Sharks full Forward shone with 3 last quarter goals his last giving the sharks a 3 point lead with a minute to go . But the Lions struck back within 30 seconds later with a goal to Davies to see them cling on.
