Rabbitohs: Liam Knight returns to the bench for the Bunnies, shifting Davvy Moale to the reserves. Shaquai Mitchell is out of the 24 altogether after making his NRL debut last week against the Sea Eagles. Isaiah Tass keeps his spot in the centres for the time being despite the return of Taane Milne, who is in the reserves, from suspension.
Broncos: A double blow for the visitors with Payne Haas (shoulder) and Kurt Capewell set to miss the trip to Sydney due to injury. TC Robati replaces Capewell in the back row and in another welcome boost the Broncos get back Patrick Carrigan from a knee injury early, who will start in Haas' No.10 jersey. Jake Turpin is listed in the reserves as he edges closer to making a return from a shoulder complaint. All eyes will be on Adam Reynolds after he missed the Broncos' 11-4 win over the Rabbitohs in round one and returns to play in front of the South Sydney faithful for the first time.

Raiders: Mass changes for the Green Machine as they look to end a five-game losing streak.

Jack Wighton accepted a two-match ban for a dangerous throw and is out, replaced by Matt Frawley at five-eighth. Elliott Whitehead is back after missing the past fortnight with a facial cut. Adam Elliott maintains the starting hooker spot with Sebastian Kris the new man on the interchange.
Bulldogs: Skipper Josh Jackson returns from COVID-19 to take his place at lock which shifts Max King back to the bench and Billy Tsikrikas (suspension) out of the 17. Brent Naden is also back on the right wing, pushing Jayden Okunbor to the reserves alongside the likes of Brandon Wakeham, Chris Patolo and Reece Hoffman.

Panthers: Ivan Cleary has named the same side that beat the Titans last week but there are two notable names in the extended squad with Brian To'o and Moses Leota included in the reserves. To'o (knee) and Leota (shoulder) trained with the team on Monday as they edge closer to making their returns after long lay-offs to start the year.
Eels: Tom Opacic (neck) returns to the backline in some much-needed relief for side and their injury woes. Dylan Brown returns to his usual five-eighth role with Jakob Arthur shifting to the reserves. Sean Russell has been included in the extended squad as he looks to make his way back from a rib/lung injury.

Sea Eagles: A triple boost for the home side. Tom Trbojevic returns at fullback in a much-needed boost after Brad Parker (knee) and Jason Saab (toe) were casualties out of last week's loss. Younger brother Ben Trbojevic takes Parker's centre spot with Reuben Garrick shifting back to the wing. Haumole Olakau'atu returns from suspension in good timing with Karl Lawton accepting a four-match ban for a dangerous throw last week. Josh Aloiai is also listed to return after being included on the bench after overcoming a shoulder complaint.
Wests Tigers: Luciano Leilua (hamstring) and David Nofoaluma (concussion) are out, replaced by Alex Seyfarth and Ken Maumalo in the starting side. Jake Simpkin returns at hooker, moving Jacob Liddle to 18th man. Stefano Utoikamanu returns after overcoming a knee injury and will come off the bench. Tyrone Peachey is also back on the bench at the expense of Jock Madden, who is listed in the reserves.

Cowboys: Todd Payten has named an unchanged line-up for Saturday's clash with the backline remaining the same and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow to come off the bench after a super-sub effort last week. Reuben Cotter and Tom Gilbert earned starts against the Eels and are in line to do so again on home turf. Jake Granville is listed in the reserves alongside Jamayne Taunoa-Brown.
Knights: Mass changes for the under-fire Hunter club. Tex Hoy replaces Jake Clifford at five-eighth after the former Cowboy was benched midway through the second half in last week's loss to the Storm. Adam Clune (knee) has been replaced by Phoenix Crossland. Lachlan Fitzgibbon and Dom Young have been named to return from knee injuries, replacing Simi Sasagi and Brodie Jones in the 17.

Sharks: Dale Finucane is back and is listed to start at lock, shifting Cameron McInnes to the interchange and Braydon Trindall to 18th man. Aiden Tolman is listed to start but swapped with Royce Hunt last week. Club captain Wade Graham will come off the bench for his second appearance after getting through 23 minutes last week. Outside backs Matt Ikuvalu and Connor Tracey are back fit again after injuries earlier in the season but are among the reserves.
Warriors: A heart-warming sight for all league fans with Dallin Watene-Zelezniak named to return after a nasty concussion against the Storm on ANZAC day. DWZ replaces Jesse Arthurs (shoulder) on the wing with Rocco Berry and Viliame Vailea maintaining their spots in the centres. Bayley Sironen moves to 18th man, replaced by Eliesa Katoa in the back row while Aaron Pene returns from a one-match suspension on the bench.
