Wests Tigers Coach Michael Maguire has updated his 19-man squad to face the South Sydney Rabbitohs tomorrow at Stadium Australia.

Kickoff for the Round 6 clash is at 5:30pm AEST with live coverage via Fox League.

Maguire has confirmed an unchanged lineup for Saturday's game with Jacob Liddle and Tom Amone dropping out of the 21-man squad named during the week.

The pair will instead line up for the club's Knock-On Effect NSW Cup side, Western Suburbs, which will take on the Rabbitohs at 12:40pm in a curtain-raiser tomorrow, with Jersey Flegg also kicking off at 3:00pm before the main game at 5:30pm.

Jake Simpkin will become Wests Tigers Player #242 after he was confirmed to make his first-grade debut at hooker, while Stefano Utoikamanu earns the first start of his career following a strong first month of the season.

AJ Kepaoa returns to the side in place of Joey Leilua, who is out with concussion.

Wests Tigers will provide a final team list for their Round 6 clash against the Rabbitohs one hour prior to kickoff (4:30pm, Saturday).
