How to watch North Queensland Cowboys vs Cronulla Sharks NRL live and match preview
The Cowboys get set to host the Sharks in a genuine blockbuster that can shape the top 4 in the run to the finals.
The Sharks enter this contest vs the Cowboys inside the top 4 having not lost a match since May. Last week, they crunched the Melbourne Storm 28-6 in a powerful home display against a fellow top contender.
The Cowboys are also on a 4-game winning streak but didn't play last week due to the shortened rounds tailored around Origin.
They sit second on the table with an impressive 12-4 record to this point.
When is the Cowboys vs Sharks clash?
The Cowboys vs Sharks clash takes place on Friday 15 July at 6pm AEST at the Queensland Country Bank Stadium in Townsville.

Cowboys vs Sharks match preview
This top 4 clash is clearly shaping as the match of the round with the competition's surprise packets Cowboys vs the in-form Sharks.
The Cowboys will have a few players on the backup from State of Origin game 3 from only 2 days prior.
The Sharks have threatened around the lower part of the 8 in recent years but appear to be taking another step forward.
They are a bit lighter on the Origin front, which could freshen them up a touch for this clash against a team with a 6-2 home record. Significantly, the Cowboys have won their last 5 at the venue and we think they'll just squeeze through vs the Sharks and strengthen their claims for a home final.
