Wests Tigers have named their Jersey Flegg team for Round 1’s match against Victoria Thunderbolts.
NRL squad member Junior Tupou will play his first game in Wests Tigers colours, running out alongside the likes of Trey Peni and Christian Ma'anaima, who all trained with the top squad during pre-season.
Due to the weather, the Jersey Flegg match will no longer be played at CommBank Stadium, with a venue to be announced shortly.
