Dragons named for local derby
against Sharks

St.George Bank Dragons captain Trent Barrett and Test prop Luke Bailey will return from injury to play the Sharks in the local derby at Toyota Park this Saturday.

Dragons coach Nathan Brown has named the same starting line-up as last week, although that line-up did not start against the Roosters on Sunday after Barrett (hamstring) and Bailey (calf) were forced to withdraw.

The only other change is the inclusion of Tony Jensen on the bench in place of Michael Howell who has taken the early plea on a striking charge and will miss one game.
