Taco Team List Tuesday - Sharks v Rabbitohs

Recharged after a bye, the Sharks will welcome back Kiwi international second-rower Briton Nikora from suspension against the Rabbitohs at Accor Stadium in Round 6 on Saturday night.

In accommodating Nikora's return on the right edge after a two-match ban for a high tackle, Siosifa Talakai has been named on the interchange. Kayal Iro is set to remain at centre having impressed in the Round 4 win over the Raiders.

Props Toby Rudolf (syndesmosis injury) and Braden Hamlin-Uele (knee) have been included on the extended bench as they near full fitness, with versatile playmaker Daniel Atkinson selected as 18th man after a cameo against Canberra.

Cronulla are aiming to solidify their early spot in the top four after beginning the season with three wins and one loss before last weekend's break.

Kick-off on Saturday is at 7.35pm EST, with TV coverage on Foxtel and Kayo.
