Wests Tigers Intrust Super Premiership Coach David Heath has finalised his team to take on the Newcastle Knights for their Round 9 clash today at Leichhardt Oval.
Kickoff for the match is at 2:15pm AEST as part of a three-game program at Leichhardt Oval.
Heath has confirmed two changes to the team originally named during the week, with new recruit Malakai Watene-Zelezniak to make his debut in his new colours today in the centres.
That sees Esan Marsters drop back to the bench, while Darcy Cox starts in the front row for JJ Felise who has been called up to the first-grade squad following the withdrawal of Tim Grant.
Justin Hunt and Kyle Lovett will also both feature in a strong Wests Tigers side today.
