Raiders: No changes to the side that went down to the Broncos in a 94-minute epic last Sunday. Englishman Matty Nicholson is again listed as 18th man. Five-eighth Ethan Strange will look to continue a hot streak that has seen him score six tries in his last four games.
Sharks: Prop Tom Hazelton is listed among the reserves as he looks to return from the knee injury that kept him out of the win over the Roosters. No changes at this stage to the squad with Dan Atkinson again the 18th man.

Last updated:
Bulldogs: A number of changes forced by injury with Matt Burton sliding to the centres to replace skipper Stephen Crichton, who is listed among the reserves despite nursing an ankle injury that it was initially feared had ended his season. Lachlan Galvin takes over from Burton in the No.6 jersey and Toby Sexton starts at halfback. Bronson Xerri (concussion) returns in the centres while Reed Mahoney has earned a recall on the bench. Winger Marcelo Montoya (ankle) is also part of the extended squad as he pushes to return after missing the loss to Melbourne.
Panthers: Ivan Cleary has named the same 17 that got the job done in Auckland last week with hooker Mitch Kenny listed among the reserves as he looks to return from a hamstring injury that sidelined him last week. Tom Jenkins is again listed as the 18th man. Four-time premiership winner Moses Leota makes his 200th NRL appearance.
