The Wests Tigers are at home this week, hosting the New Zealand Warriors at Lidcombe Oval in Round 19 of the Jersey Flegg Cup.
Kicking off at 11.30am on Saturday, they’ll be looking to bounce back into the winner’s circle after a tough loss at the hands of the Dragons last week.
The Dragons started fast with two tries in the opening 10 minutes and kept the heat on all game, claiming a 52-22 victory.
Recent signing Matthew Barakat debuts at halfback, partnering with Jack Attard in the halves, who makes way at fullback for Logan Brookes. Glassie Glassie returns on the wing.
The forward pack sees one change, with Siotame Havea Jr promoted to starting lock.
