Wests Tigers and the St. George-Illawarra Dragons will line up virtually full strength for their final game of the regular season this Saturday at ANZ Stadium.
Coming off a thoroughly convincing 50-16 win over the New Zealand Warriors last week, Jason Taylor has named the same 18-man squad for this week’s game against the Dragons. Manaia Cherrington has been added once more as 18th man, but it still remains to be seen whether he will be included in the final team as per last week’s late change, or whether the man he replaced last week, Kyle Lovett, will be included in the final 17 named on Saturday.
For the Dragons, Fijian winger Eto Nabuli returns to the side on the wing, while Jake Marketo moves into the second row as a replacement for the injured Joel Thompson.
After last week’s loss to the Gold Coast Titans, Paul McGregor’s side need to win to ensure a top-eight finish — depending on how the Sea Eagles go later in the week — so there’s certainly no doubting the intensity the Dragons will bring on Saturday afternoon.
