The Wests Tigers are gearing up for an all-or-nothing encounter, competing with the Rabbitohs for the last spot in the Jersey Flegg Cup's top five finals.
The Tigers, sitting in fifth spot with 35 competition points, need either a win or draw to maintain a finals berth as sixth-placed South Sydney’s 33 points and favourable for-and-against means a win will leapfrog them into fifth.
The orange, black, and white will be on home soil at Lidcombe Oval, with the contest kicking off at 12.00pm this Saturday.
The side that took down the Roosters last week sees just one adjustment, with Glassie Glassie shifting into the centres to make way for Heamasi Makasini on the wing.
