The Blues are 1-17 with no late changes.
Blues advisor Greg Alexander said on Tuesday that "the side named will be the side that plays", and that's the way Brad Fittler has gone, as opposed to Game One when they made a couple of changes an hour before kick-off.
Matt Burton, Stephen Crichton, Apisai Koroisau, Jake Trbojevic and Cameron Murray have all been called into the starting side, with Angus Crichton joining Damien Cook on the bench alongside debutant Siosifa Talakai.
Sharks playmaker Nicho Hynes will be the 18th Man as he was for Game One.
