Robbie Taylor has confirmed his lineup to host the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Lidcombe Oval for Round 3 of the NSW Women’s Premiership.
Kicking off at 12.00pm on Saturday, the orange, black, and white will be eager for their first win of the campaign after a Round 1 draw and a heartbreaking loss last week to the Newcastle Knights.
In Round 2, the Tigers drew first blood against the Knights with a try to Saige Tautalafua, before the hosts responded with two of their own to lead 8-4 at the break.
Both sides traded blows to open the second stanza, with the Tigers earning a 14-12 advantage through a second try to Tautalafua and another to Folau Vaki. However, a strong finish from the Knights saw them claim a 20-14 win.
Ahead of their clash with the Rabbitohs, Taylor has made a few tweaks to his Round 2 lineup, with Dawn Tui promoted to starting hooker and Kayla Henderson named on the wing.
Diamond Graham and Season Blackburn-Kingi are additions to the interchange bench.
