Timestamp: Sun 15 Aug 2021, 06:02 PM

There were send-offs and a couple of costly injuries as fans were welcomed back for round 22 of the Telstra Premiership.

Harvey Norman Women In League Round kicked off with Melbourne entering rare territory with their 18th straight win when they beat Canberra on the Sunshine Coast and culminated in a double header at Redcliffe which will have a major bearing on the finals equation.

Newcastle are now in seventh after beating Cronulla while the Warriors are still a chance of playing in the finals following their triumph over Canterbury.

Canberra second-rower Corey Harawira-Naera and Eels forward Ryan Matterson were marched for high shots in their respective losses to the Storm and Sea Eagles.

Raiders hooker Tom Starling also suffered a broken jaw while Knights back-rower Lachlan Fitzgibbon's season is over after he needed to undergo shoulder surgery.
