Shaun Johnson has played his last game for Cronulla Sharks after sustaining a hamstring injury which is seen as a season-ender.

The Warriors-bound halfback received the news earlier this week which has come as a terrible blow to the Sharks’ finals chances as they prepare to face Manly on Sunday.

It’s the second year in a row Johnson’s season has been cut short with a leg injury after he ruptured his Achilles tendon while the Sharks were in a battle to make finals in 2020.

Ironically, he also suffered last year’s injury in round 19.
