The first ‘Team List Tuesday’ of 2024 is officially here with clubs unleashing new recruits and naming some of their biggest stars for week one of the Pre-season Challenge.
Returning Warriors star Roger Tuivasa-Sheck has been named in the centres, while Chanel Harris-Tavita will play his first game after a one-year hiatus.
Blake Taaffe will get first shot at the Bulldogs’ No.1 jersey and new recruit Drew Hutchison has beat Toby Sexton to the No.7, while Jaeman Salmon will line up at lock.
Elsewhere, Knights coach Adam O’Brien has stuck with last season’s halves pairing, meaning Jack Cogger will start on the bench and Sharks young gun Kade Dykes is back on deck after an ACL injury wiped him out of last season.
The Roosters are wheeling out their big guns with James Tedesco and Luke Keary named to start, while Dom Young will play his first game for the club.
Tyrell Sloan has gotten the nod at fullback for Dragons and Josh Schuster has been named on the bench as he fights to prove his fitness ahead of Round 1.
Read on for the official team lists for week one of the Pre-season Challenge.
