The Sharks will run out onto Suncorp Stadium later today as named on Tuesday for their crucial round 24 clash with the Brisbane Broncos.

Looking for a win to keep their Finals hopes alive, the Sharks have made just one change to the team which beat the Wests Tigers, with Ronaldo Mulitalo unavailable after breaking his jaw last weekend.

Mawene Hiroti, who has also spent some time in the sidelines due to a hand injury suffered in the round 19 match against the Bulldogs, returns in place of Mulitalo.

Otherwise, Sharks coach Josh Hannay has kept the faith with the team which scored 50 points in their win last week for a match where a victory will keep them inside the top eight and on track for a Finals berth.

Young halves Braydon Trindall and Luke Metcalf have retained their places in the starting side, with Matt Moylan again selected on the interchange bench, however Hannay indicated in his pre-game media conference yesterday that the experienced playmaker was likely to get more than the 20 minutes of game time he received in his comeback match last week.

The Sharks and Broncos match is scheduled for a 5.30pm kick off at Suncorp Stadium, with the two 17-man squads, as well as 18th man concussion substitutes, listed below.
