The Sharks are gearing up for a showdown against the Raiders at Canberra's GIO Stadium, with both teams looking to fine-tune their game before hitting the bright lights of Las Vegas.
After holding back their key players in the last trial match against the Warriors, Cronulla is ready to unleash their full arsenal in their final pre-season hit-out.
Star recruit Addin Fonua-Blake will make his club debut in the front row, alongside a seasoned lineup including Ronaldo Mulitalo, Jesse Ramien, and captain Cameron McInnes.
Meanwhile, the Raiders, who are coming off a victory over the Panthers in their previous trial, are also fielding a strong team with only prop Joseph Tapine sitting out.
Playmaker Jamal Fogarty will lead the home team in Tapine's absence.
To prepare for the unique conditions they will face in Vegas, the GIO Stadium field has been adjusted to mimic the dimensions of the Allegiant Stadium, home to NFL games.
This will test the players' adaptability and ensure they are ready for the challenges ahead.
Both teams are eager to showcase their skills and build momentum as they head into the upcoming season.
It promises to be an exciting clash between two competitive sides as they aim to kick off their campaign on a winning note.
