The Sharks at sharks.com.au are gearing up for a showdown with the Broncos in today's NRLW clash at Cbus Super Stadium.
In a move reminiscent of a chess player sacrificing a knight for a better position, Emma Tonegato will don the fullback jersey, while Georgia Hannaway steps into the spotlight as Tayla Preston's trusty halves partner after a lengthy absence due to an ankle injury.
In a cunning shuffle akin to a poker player bluffing their way to victory, Cassie Staples will take the wing position, displacing Nakia Davis-Welsh to 18th player duties.
Unfortunately, Manilita Takapautolo has been benched from the 19-woman squad, perhaps a strategic move in the great game of Rugby League chess.
The stage is set for a thrilling battle at high noon, with kick-off scheduled for 12pm.
Fans can catch all the action live on Nine, Nine Now, Foxtel, or Kayo.
It's bound to be a match that will have spectators on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the final whistle.
Let the games begin!
