LATE MAIL: Dragons finalise Round 5 NRLW team list
St George Illawarra Dragons NRLW head coach Jamie Soward has finalised his squad to face the Sharks at WIN Stadium in Round 5.
There are no changes to the updated side from last night with Maatuleio Fotu-Moala dropping out and Bronte Wilson listed as the replacement player.
Although she passed her HIA last week against the Roosters, Tyla King has been ruled out due to a concussion diagnosed the day after the match. Bobbi Law has also been ruled out due to a facial cut suffered against the Roosters.
Shenai Lendill moves to the centres, Zali Hopkins moves to five-eighth, Kasey Reh starts at hooker, Ella Koster starts in the second row, Kaarla Cowan plays her first match of the year off the bench and Jordyn Preston joins winger Maria Paseka in making her NRLW debut after being promoted to the NRLW squad this week.
The squad will be in action following the NRL side's battle against the Sharks in what beckons as another phenomenal double-header.
The side will be wearing the club's 2024 Indigenous Jersey which features Brendon Garlett’s ‘Spirit of Connection’ artwork.
