The Wests Tigers are gearing up for their final pre-season hit out against the St George Illawarra Dragons in Mudgee this Saturday.

This match will be crucial for both teams to fine-tune their strategies and test their combinations before the Telstra Premiership kicks off in three weeks.

The Tigers will be looking to build on the momentum from their last match against the Warriors, where they showcased a strong spine and starting pack.

However, they will have a new centre pairing of Justin Olam and Starford To'a, who will be making their debut appearance for the club in the pre-season.

Additionally, Alex Twal and Lachlan Galvin will make their return to the field after being rested and recovering from injury respectively.

The clash in the halves between Aidan Sezer and Ben Hunt will be a battle of experienced playmakers, while Jayden Sullivan and Kyle Flanagan will don new #6 jerseys for their respective teams.

This match holds extra significance for Sullivan, who will be facing his former club for the first time.

Expect fireworks on the field as these two teams give it their all in this pre-season challenge.
