Venue: 4 Pines Park, Sydney
Tim Sheens has elected to make a host of changes to his side as two exciting young prospects prepare to make their first grade debuts.
In the centres, NSW Under 19’s representative Josh Feledy will line up alongside recent debutant Triston Reilly.
Feledy is a Northern Beaches junior who has worked his way through the grades after joining Wests Tigers on an NRL development contract earlier this year.
He will be joined in the squad by fellow first-timer Kit Laulilii, who captained Western Suburbs Magpies to their triumph in the Harold Matthews Cup last year.
The former Westfields Sports High student will have the opportunity to test himself against lock-forward Jake Trbojevic, who is set to make his 200th appearance for the Sea Eagles.
