Wests Tigers v Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs
ANZ Stadium - Friday 7:35pm

Perfect conditions for footy tonight at ANZ stadium. A comfortable 24 degrees, 25% humidity, and the field looks in great condition. Should be a cracker!

Asked earlier, Bulldogs coach Des Hasler said "it'll be a tough game tonight", and we don't expect anything different. Despite rumours, Josh Reynolds will not play tonight.

Instead, Des Hasler has had a field day. Timotea Lafai is out, replaced by Moses Mbye in the centres. Josh Jackson will play at five-eighth, and Frank Pritchard will start in the second row . Antonio Kaufusi will play his first game for the Bulldogs after being added to the interchange bench.

For the Tigers, Aaron Woods and Dene Halatau are both out. Sausoa Sue will move to prop, Kyle Lovett to the second row, and Lamar Liolevave will make his debut from the bench.

Referee Ashley Klein will wear yellow boots tonight, in support of #wearyellowforseth
