Wests Tigers coach Michael Maguire has finalised his side for this afternoon’s Round 25 clash against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.

As confirmed on Saturday afternoon, Moses Mbye won't feature in his side's final game of the 2021 season after he was ruled out due to concussion protocols.

Youngster Zac Cini will shift to fullback in jersey 20 in his place, while Kelma Tuilagi will return from a shoulder injury from the interchange bench.

James Roberts has been confirmed as 18th man for the match, while Reece Hoffman has dropped out of the squad.

Plenty of late changes for the Bulldogs with Jake Averillo returning at halfback for Kyle Flanagan. Dylan Napa starts at prop, moving Jack Hetherington to the back row and Corey Waddell back to the bench in place of Bailey Biondi-Odo.

Kick-off for the match is at 4:05pm AEST from Moreton Daily Stadium, Redcliffe.
