Cronulla coach Shane Flanagan is toying with a surprise selection and using Ben Barba at hooker against Manly on Sunday.
Sharks rake Michael Ennis will miss the NRL match at Brookvale Oval because of a one-week suspension for a high tackle.
Back-up No.9 Pat Politoni will start the game at dummy half however Flanagan said he had the option to replace him with the former Dally M winner during the match.
