Team List: NRL Round 3 vs Sharks

Wests Tigers coach Benji Marshall has named a 22-man squad for Saturday's Round 3 match against Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks at Leichhardt Oval.

Justin Olam will make his first appearance for the club against the Sharks on Saturday and become Wests Tigers Player #281.

Olam comes into the centres replacing Starford To’a who has undergone ankle surgery and is expected to miss eight weeks.

The PNG international was rested last week after picking up a knee injury in the pre-season challenge match against the Dragons. 

Aidan Sezer has been named to start in the halves alongside Lachlan Galvin, with Jayden Sullivan to come off the bench.

The only other change to the run-on side sees Fonua Pole start at lock with Alex Seyfarth named as an interchange.

Brent Naden has also been included in the extended squad after undergoing post season surgery (shoulder and ankle).
