The Sharks have finalised their line-up for tonight's sold-out Easter clash with the Raiders at PointsBet Stadium, making no late changes.

Remaining as named on Tuesday, Cronulla will start with Kayal Iro at centre for his first NRL match since his debut in 2022.

Siosifa Talakai will shift to the second row to accommodate the talented 24-year-old, while Tom Hazelton has joined the run-on side to replace Toby Rudolf (syndesmosis injury) at prop.

Utility playmaker Daniel Atkinson has been named on the bench for what will be his third NRL appearance if called upon by coach Craig Fitzgibbon.

With middles Dale Finucane (fractured eye socket) and Royce Hunt (calf) also in the casualty ward, hulking prop Tuku Hau Tapuha returns on the interchange.

Hooker Jayden Berrell is listed as the 18th man.

For the second home game in a row this season, a capacity crowd will cheer on the Sharks. Secure your seat for future matches by becoming a Member - learn more HERE.
