Sharks Coach Shane Flanagan has named his side to take on the Roosters in Round 25 of the NRL, as his side aims to return to winning ways at Southern Cross Group Stadium on Saturday night.
The Sharks will welcome back Captain Paul Gallen to the side, while regular left-edge winger Sosaia Feki is also set to line up, having overcome a minor groin complaint.
Gerard Beale makes way for Feki, as Jesse Sene-Lefao retains his place on the side’s interchange bench.
James Maloney will take his place at five-eighth and will play against the club where he won a Premiership in 2013, having taken an early guilty plea though cited for a high tackle by the NRL Match Review Committee in the match against Souths.
In other team news, Valentine Holmes has been named despite some injury fears late on in the Round 23 clash with the Rabbitohs.
The Roosters match will see Michael Ennis say farewell to the Cronulla Members and fans, with the Club encouraging all supporters to turn out for what is the final Home game of the 2016 season.
