July 08, 2021 07:25 - 49 minutes - 46.2 MBAJ is joined by Rhys Sullivan (well for half of the program) and discuss the crazy filled Cronulla Sharks decade. From the supplements saga to a self reported Salary Cap breach, this had it all. Despite contrary belief, they are on the way up and will be rebuilding.
