Taco Team List Tuesday - Sharks v Dolphins

Nicho Hynes will return as the Sharks host the Dolphins for the first time in the much-anticipated 'Battle of the Fins' on Thursday night.

Wayne Bennett's team will make their maiden trip to PointsBet Stadium for the second-versus-fourth clash to kick off NRL Beanie for Brain Cancer Round.

Having been rested in Saturday's win over the Broncos following his State of Origin commitments, Hynes has been named to rekindle his halves partnership with five-eighth Braydon Trindall for the first time since Round 7.

With the playmaking duo back together, Daniel Atkinson is listed as 18th man after performing admirably in the starting side for the past seven games.

Elsewhere, prop Toby Rudolf is poised to retain his spot in the run-on side after being elevated from the bench in a late switch with Tom Hazelton against Brisbane.

Fellow front-rower Braden Hamlin-Uele has earned a place on the interchange at the expense of Tuku Hau Tapuha, who has dropped back to the reserves.

Kick-off is at 7.50pm, with TV coverage on Nine, Nine Now, Foxtel and Kayo.
