Team List Tuesday presented by Zambrero: Round 9 v Eels
Sharks coach Craig Fitzgibbon has announced a 22-man squad for the upcoming Magic Round match against the Eels at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night.
Notably, Mawene Hiroti will be absent for the next 4-6 weeks due to a high-grade MCL strain.
In a positive development, KL Iro is set to return from a hamstring tear to take his place.
Additionally, Braden Hamlin-Uele has replaced Tuku Hau Tapuha on the interchange bench after successfully coming back from a knee cartilage injury, which he showcased during his performance with the Newtown Jets in the Knock-On Effect NSW Cup last week.
Billy Burns, who scored a try against the Wests Tigers in Round 8, will again start in the second row as Teig Wilton continues to recover from a shoulder issue.
Kick-off for the match is scheduled for 6pm on Friday, with live coverage available on Foxtel and Kayo.
