For Round 16, the Sharks are set to face the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
In a key change, Siosifa Talakai has been named as starting centre, replacing Mawene Hiroti, who is sidelined for 4-6 weeks due to a calf strain sustained during last week's victory over the Dragons.
Hiroti was filling in for KL Iro, who will be out for up to three months following surgery for a ruptured pectoral.
Despite not starting in the backline since the 2024 preliminary final, Talakai has shown his capability to perform well in the centres when called upon mid-match this season.
Utility player Daniel Atkinson will rejoin the interchange, taking Talakai's previous spot after being named 18th man last week.
Kick-off is scheduled for 2pm AEST and will be broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
