Panthers: Superstar playmaker Nathan Cleary remains sidelined with a hamstring injury so Brad Schneider again calls the shots alongside Jarome Luai, who is good to go despite leaving the field with a knee problem in Round 5. Scott Sorensen's return from a knee injury pushes Luke Garner back to the bench and Matt Eisenhuth to the reserves.

Wests Tigers: Young gun Lachlan Galvin returns from suspension at five-eighth with Brent Naden also joining the backline in place of Solomona Faataape in the centres. John Bateman (concussion) is back on deck so Alex Seyfarth goes to the bench. Samuela Fainu (concussion) and Latu Fainu (hamstring) also return on the bench so Justin Matamua and Jake Simpkin make way.

Last updated: 4/29/2024 5:36:30 AM

Titans: Jayden Campbell hasn’t been named after suffering a knee injury in last week’s loss to the Raiders, so Phillip Sami, who is returning from an ankle injury himself, takes over at fullback. AJ Brimson is again the preferred partner to Kieran Foran in the halves, while David Fifita has been included in the starting side after coming off the bench in Round 6.

Sea Eagles: Four significant injury returns for coach Anthony Seibold, with Matt Lodge named to start in his first game back from an ACL injury and Reuben Garrick and Nathan Brown returning after missing last week. Winger Jason Saab is back for his first appearance since injuring his hamstring in Round 1. Those returns are somewhat offset by the loss of Ben Trbojevic (hamstring and Toafofoa Sipley (knee).

Raiders: One forced change from last week with Zac Hosking (shoulder) replaced in the second row by Ata Mariota and Simi Sasagi coming in on the bench. After a solid NRL debut in the win over the Titans, Chevy Stewart retains the job at fullback, with James Schiller again on the wing in the absence of Albert Hopoate, who has been left out for another week after suffering burns in a cooking accident last month.

Sharks: Prolific winger Sione Katoa is serving a one-match suspension picked up in Round 6, so Sam Stonestreet will make his NRL debut in an otherwise unchanged backline. Braden Hamlin-Uele comes in on the bench for his first game of the season following a frustrating battle with a knee injury through the opening six weeks.

Cowboys: Just one change to the squad with Semi Valemei coming onto the wing for Murray Taulagi (hamstring). Tom Chester retains the centre spot he took over last week following the loss of Zac Laybutt to a season-ending knee injury. Scott Drinkwater marks his 100th game for the Cowboys after celebrating his 100th NRL game last week.
