The Sharks team which suffered a disappointing defeat against the Storm in Melbourne will be given an opportunity to respond with the unavailability of Royce Hunt the only change to the 17-man line up to face the Bulldogs on Sunday afternoon.
Hunt will be sidelined for a period of six weeks after suffering a ruptured syndesmosis, with his place in the starting side to be taken by Oregon Kaufusi, while Tom Hazelton has been added to the interchange bench.
The Sharks will be keen to rebound following the heavy defeat, in a match against an opponent which was also beaten in their round 15 game, with the Bulldogs going down to the Eels at Accor Stadium yesterday.
The Sharks v Bulldogs match is scheduled for a 4.05pm kick off at PointsBet Stadium.
