Ellis to make Tigers return

Gareth Ellis has been named in the Wests Tigers team to take on North Queensland on Monday.

Ellis has been out for over three months after fracturing his foot in the round five match with South Sydney and his team mates are delighted at the prospect of his return.

Liam Fulton told the Daily Telegraph “He’s the kind of guy everyone wants to play with.

“When you’re defending, you want to be standing next to him. He could be our ‘X-factor’ in the run home to the semis.”

This is Ellis’ final season with the Tigers after signing in 2010.
