Teams

Rabbitohs: 1. Jye Gray 2. Tyrone Munro 3. Taane Milne 4. Richard Kennar 5. Jacob Gagai 6. Cody Walker 7. Dean Hawkins 8. Tallis Duncan 9. Damien Cook 10. Thomas Burgess 11. Keaon Koloamatangi 12.

Dion Teaupa

Jack Wighton is latest Souths star struck down with injury after the veteran five-eighth suffered a calf injury in their loss to Penrith. Cody Walker switches to five-eighth and Dean Hawkins is the new halfback.

Roosters: 1. James Tedesco 2. Fetalaiga Pauga 3. Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii 4. Joseph Manu 5. Dominic Young 6. Luke Keary 7. Sandon Smith 8. Spencer Leniu 9. Connor Watson 10. Lindsay Collins 11. Angus Crichton 12. Sitili Tupouniua 13. Naufahu Whyte 14. Zach Dockar-Clay 15. Siua Wong 16. Delasalle Vaa 17. Terrell May 18. Michael Jennings 19. Blake Steep 20. Mark Nawaqanitawase 21. Jake Elliott 22. Xavier Va’a

Former Wallabies star Mark Nawaqanitawase is set to debut for the Roosters after showing impressive form in NSW. The Daily Telegraph reported that ‘Marky Mark’ will start in the game, although the club had not confirmed the decision and who would miss out from the selected team.

Joseph Suaalii (shoulder) returns but Victor Radley (shoulder) and Nat Butcher (concussion) are out. Sam Walker and Brandon Smith are unlikely to play again until after the early rounds of next season with their serious knee injuries and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves is suspended for two more weeks.

Butcher should be right to play in the first week of the finals.
