The Wests Tigers are on the road this week, visiting the Cronulla Sharks at Ocean Protect Stadium on Sunday for their Round 9 Jersey Flegg Cup clash.
The orange, black, and white will be up for the challenge as they come off a triumphant 48-12 victory over the Canberra Raiders in Round 8.
The Tigers were quick out of the blocks at Lidcombe Oval, taking an early 12-0 lead before a fightback from the Raiders cut their advantage to two at the break. But a second-half clinic from the home side saw them cross for six unanswered tries, claiming a convincing win.
Head Coach, Shane Sultana names only a few changes to Round 8’s winning side.
Logan Brookes makes way for Ryder Huth, who will don the #1 jersey for the first time this season. Xavier Tauaifaiga remains at centre after crossing for a brace last week, as well as Riley Oitmann on the wing following another try-scoring performance.
Pheonix Godinet and Jeremiah Leatigaga make up the second row, with Jack Biles an addition on the interchange bench.
