The Cronulla Sharks are holding on to top spot on the NRL ladder by the slenderest of margins after drawing with the Titans on the Gold Coast on Monday night.

The match was a spiteful affair that in the end couldn’t be decided by golden point extra time as both sides failed to convert multiple field goal opportunities.

Titans Indigenous All Star Greg Bird (pictured) was a standout for the home side and believes his side will go into the last two months of the season with plenty of confidence after Monday nights efforts.
