Wests Tigers Head Coach Michael Maguire has finalised his side for today's trial match against the New Zealand Warriors at Northland Events Centre in Whangarei (3:00pm AEDT kickoff).
After an injury to Chris Lawrence earlier in the week, Luke Garner will start in the run-on side in the back row while Matt Eisenhuth starts at lock — the latter moving in to the run-on side in place of Elijah Taylor, who sits out with a minor pec injury.
Alex Twal, Josh Reynolds, Chris McQueen, Jacob Liddle, Mahe Fonua and Josh Aloiai will all feature off the interchange bench at some point during the game.
