Teams: Dragons debut youngster, Rudolf returns
Teams are in and we’ve got some changes. Ronaldo Mulitalo makes a timely return from suspension (we knew that one), and Daniel Atkinson drops off Cronulla’s bench against his future side (he’ll join the Dragons next year on around $500,000-a-year). Toby Rudolf comes back in from an ankle injury for his first game since round seven.

Poll: Who wins this one?
The forecast: A chance of rain tonight
Welcome one, welcome all
Evening sports fans,
We’re coming to you live and loud from the Shire as Cronulla hosts St George Illawarra in a something of a desperation stakes local derby. Both sides were belted last weekend and deservedly so, but someone’s got to win this thing, right?

So, who have you got? Nicho Hynes and a Sharks side trying to find their defensive mojo? Or Clint Gutherson’s Dragons, in need of some serious spark in the halves?
We’ll have kick-off at 7.50pm AEST, teams and whatnot beforehand.
