Broncos v Eels, Saturday at Totally Workwear Stadium, Brisbane

Broncos: Destiny Brill and Annetta Nu'uausala are both out after failing head injury assessments last week with Lavinia Gould and Breanna Eales coming into the starting side. Ashleigh Werner returns on the wing after serving a two-match suspension for biting. She replaces Toni Hunt, who reverts to 18th player.

Eels: Kennedy Cherrington is out after being hit with a four-match ban at the NRLW judiciary on Tuesday night, with Ruby-Jean Kennard-Ellis likely to join the squad after being named in the reserves. In further news, star recruits Rachael Pearson and Elsie Albert have been included to start in a boost for the winless NRLW side after both suffered calf injuries in the pre-season. Kelsey Clark (head knock) is out while Mahalia Murphy switches from the centres to back-row in another notable change.
