The Sharks have made an additional change to their team to play the Sea Eagles today, with Siosifa Talakai omitted from the 19-man squad as named last night.

Already without Matt Moylan, Wade Graham and the injured Teig Wilton from the team beaten by the Warriors last weekend, Talakai has been replaced on the Sharks interchange bench by prop Royce Hunt who returns after missing five weeks and four games with a sydesmosis injury.

In confirming the other changes as revealed when the Sharks team was selected on Tuesday, Braydon Trindall comes into the side at five eighth, Connor Tracey replaces Talakai at centre and youngster Jesse Colquhoun will take over from Wilton in the backrow.

Dale Finucane is also back on deck after serving a two-match suspension.

In a game to be played for the Steve Rogers Memorial Trophy, the Sharks will be aiming to bounce back from a disappointing performance against the Warriors last week, while the Sea Eagles are also coming into the contest on the back of a round 20 loss to the Cowboys.

The Sharks v Manly match is scheduled to get underway at 4.05pm, with the two 17-man teams and 18th man concussion substitutes listed below.
