from a roosters standpoint, we were essentially rewarded for losing first week.
elsewise we would've verused manly, an indisputably harder team than sharks.
edit: also, sharks will have a choice of either ANZ or SFS for the stadium. since SFS is roosters homeground, they'll pick ANZ.
We were not rewarded for losing in the first week. If we had won, and all other results were the same, we'd be playing Canberra at the SFS, rather than the Sharks. Canberra finished 6th in the regular season, Cronulla finished 3rd.
The Sharks will not have a choice of where to play. The NRL decides where the game will be held.
