Zac Lomax has been rewarded for his blistering performance against the Warriors by retaining the Dragons centre position.
Despite the availability of centre Jack Bird, Dragons coach Shane Flanagan has opted to stick with the same 17 players that produced their most complete 80-minutes of the season last weekend.
Lomax was superb in his first game at centre for the year, having been chosen on the wing in his previous six matches.
Bird, who missed the Warriors clash due to HIA protocols,has been named as the 18th man.
Former Kiwi rugby player Solomon Alaimalo is set to make his NRL debut for the Tigers.
Alaimalo has been called into the injury ravaged Tigers backline. He switched codes in the off-season after playing several seasons of Super Rugby with the Chiefs.
He arrived on a one-year deal with the Tigers. (Telegraph)
