Head Coach Shane Millard has announced the roster for the St George Illawarra Dragons' Jersey Flegg Cup team, who will be facing the Sydney Roosters in Round 6 of the 2025 season.
The game will take place at Collegians Sporting Complex, with the Dragons' Knock-On Effect NSW Cup team playing in a double-header beforehand.
One notable change in the lineup is Wes Pring filling in for the injured Tyler Peckham-Harris as fullback.
Additionally, Cyrus Stanley-Traill will be making his season debut at lock for the Dragons.
Stanley-Traill, the nephew of former players Kyle and Chase, transitioned to the Jersey Flegg level last year after helping St George win an SG Ball premiership.
He has been training with the club's NRL squad this season and his promotion to Jersey Flegg follows a successful performance in the SG Ball season finale.
Unfortunately, Lachlan Weir, Isaiah Fagalilo, and Campbell Rubie will be unavailable for the Dragons in this upcoming match.
Despite these absences, Millard remains optimistic about his team's capabilities and is confident in their potential to perform well on the field.
Overall, the Dragons' Jersey Flegg Cup team is prepared to face the Sydney Roosters in Round 6, with promising new additions to the lineup and a strong training background for many of the players.
The upcoming match presents an opportunity for these young athletes to showcase their skills and continue building towards success in the Jersey Flegg Cup competition.
