Cooper Cronk has provided tactical advice to the Sydney Roosters ahead of their NRL semi-final against the Cronulla Sharks on September 30. He suggests that the Roosters should focus on forcing Sharks five-eighth Braydon Trindall to make tackles, especially as he is still recovering from a shoulder injury. Cronk pointed out that Trindall only made ten tackles in the Sharks' last match, where he played through significant discomfort. The outcome of this semi-final will determine who advances to face the Dolphins in the Grand Final.
