Skipper Stephen Crichton returns from Origin duties to help his side fight to retain their perfect record at home this season in tonight's clash against the Sharks.

Jacob Kiraz drops to fullback while Connor Tracey remains unavailable. Blake Taaffe joins Josh Curran, Kurtis Morrin and Lipoi Hopoi on the interchange.

Bronson Xerri returns to the centres alongside Crichton after being a late withdrawal from last week's game. Matt Burton partners Toby Sexton in the halves.

Jeral Skelton holds down his starting position on the wing after a solid effort last week which saw him claim a try, try assist, and post 241 run metres. Blake Wilson sits on the opposing wing adding lethal attacking speed.
