Dylan Egan has been named to make his long-awaited return from an ACL tear suffered in Round 11 last year.
The Gerringong Lions junior has spent the best part of 11 rehabbing his injured knee and this Sunday gets the opportunity to return to the field.
The Dragons will be without five players who suffered head knocks in Round 7 – Nathan Lawson, Lyhkan King-Togia, Nick Quinn, Cyrus Stanley-Traill and Ha’ele Finau.
David Afu and Shadi Hammoud come into the run-on side having put together strong Jersey Flegg campaigns to start the year.
