Late Mail - Sharks v Tigers

The Sharks yesterday announced the withdrawals of Siosifa Talakai with a shoulder problem and Andrew Fifita who remained in Sydney due to a family issue, from the team to play the Tigers in Tamworth later today.

Matt Ikuvalu was named to play in Talakai's centre position, with Royce Hunt included the 17-man squad for Fifita.

Coach Craig Fitzgibbon has made two further changes to his line-up, with Jesse Colquoun promoted to the interchange in place of Aiden Tolman, while Hunt goes into the Sharks starting side, meaning Braden Hamlin-Uele moves back to the bench. 

For Colquhoun it will be his third game in the top grade, having made his NRL debut in round 18 against the Cowboys, before seeing limited minutes last weekend when activated late in the match as the concussion substitute. 

Unavailable for the game at Scully Park today is Connor Tracey, who was held back due to the heavy concussion suffered early in the Dragons game last week, along with Matt Moylan who continues his recovery from a quadriceps problem. 

The Sharks v Tigers match is scheduled to get underway at 5.30pm in Tamworth, see the two 17-man squads listed below.
