With their victory over the Newcastle Knights last weekend, the Cronulla Sharks earned the right to play Week 1 of the finals at their home of PointsBet Stadium.
This news is a part of the ongoing controversy surrounding the top four teams playing their finals in small suburban stadiums. The issue being that these blockbuster games (being the Panthers and Eels, and Sharks up against the Cowboys) will be played in front of only around a combined 34000 people.
Shark Park is currently undergoing rennovations.
But while it may be unfortunate that so many fans will miss out, there is one big perk; we get to see more of what Gus Gould calls the 'Bermuda Triangle'.
Colloquially known to all footy fans as Shark Park, the Cronulla home ground has been home to many bizarre and just outright unlikely moments that don't happen elsewhere and here are five of the most memorable.
1. Redemption against Manly in 2016
Historically the Sharks don't beat the Manly Sea Eagles; it rarely happens.
It has only happened 27 times in 96 matches, including two lost grand finals.
Things were going pretty well when Cronulla came up against them in 2016 in Round 11. They sat third on the ladder, and Manly was in the midst of a poor season.
But Sharks fans knew that meant nothing.
Just the season before, in 2015, Round 26, Manly had broken Cronulla's hearts as they pulled off what on paper was an upset to cost them the top four and a chance at breaking their premiership drought.
That was still fresh in the minds of the players and fans alike, as was the fact the Cronulla had only won one of the last 14 games against their bitter rivals.
It was a record so bad that I remember writing them off before a whistle was blown, and then they won, and they didn't just win; they went to top spot for the first time since Round 2 of 2000.
This was, in my eyes, the Bermuda Triangles' finest work, as it was when I believed Cronulla could win a premiership, and they did.
