During this round there was a very unusual event. The Melbourne Storm and Cronulla Sharks fought for the minor Premiership with the Sharks going down 26–6 to the Storm. However, because of the 20 point loss the Cronulla Sharks dropped to third, overtaken by the Canberra Raiders who beat Wests Tigers 52–10. This then resulted in a different top 2 then the ones that fought for the Minor Premiership.
