Match Notes
Adjustments were made to Cronulla's team sheet for this game after some research owing to a discrepancy in Preston Campbell's 250th match. Originally we had Campbell on the bench with Paul Mellor starting in the centres, but according to http://replay.waybackmachine.org/20000124115536/http://rleague.com/nrl99/frame-final-04.htm it was in fact Russell Richardson starting in the centres with Paul Mellor on the bench, and Campbell not playing.
