Team List: Pre-season Challenge vs Panthers

There are several changes to the team that defeated the Rabbitohs last weekend with eight players to pull on the Manly jersey for the first time this year.

Reuben Garrick and Tolu Koula come into the centres, with Garrick to captain the side. Clayton Faulalo shifts from centre to fullback with Lehi Hopoate named on the wing.

Jazz Tevaga will wear the No. 9 jersey after playing for the Māori All Stars last weekend.  The former Warriors hooker is part of a new-look forward pack which includes Ethan Bullemor, Ben Trbojevic and Nathan Brown.

Middle forward Jacob Sykes, who played for the Indigenous All Stars last weekend, has been named on an extended bench, as has replacement half, Brandon Wakeham.

The team will be coached by Anthony Seibold’s assistant, Jim Dymock.
