The Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks are set to play host to the Melbourne Storm at Sharks Stadium in Sydney in Round 11 of the 2025 NRL season.

The Sharks have had an above-average season so far, as they have won six games and lost four through their first 10 games. Their last four games have seen them take three victories, which has helped them rise up to fifth place on the ladder.

The Storm, on the other hand, had a decent start to their season as they took four victories in their first five games of the season. However, their three games after that saw them suffer two defeats that have taken them off the pace from the Bulldogs, who lead the ladder. They returned to form last weekend with a 64-0 thrashing of the Wests Tigers, and they are now placed third on the ladder.

The Sporting News is on hand to bring you all the latest TV, scheduling and live streaming information ahead of this match.
