Knights: Dom Young is back at the club where he scored 43 tries in 51 games before spending two years at the Roosters. The backline is also boosted by the return of Bradman Best (hamstring) while Kalyn Ponga has been named to back up from Origin so Fletcher Sharpe goes back to five-eighth having recovered from a calf injury that sidelined him last week. Tyson Frizell (concussion) is back so Brodie Jones goes to the bench. Jack Hetherington is listed among the reserves as he chases a return from a shoulder injury. Young's return sees James Schiller move to 18th man while Fletcher Hunt, Kyle McCarthy and Jackson Hastings have dropped to the reserves.

Rabbitohs: A boost for the Bunnies with gun fullback Latrell Mitchell named to back up from Origin and skipper Cody Walker (groin) and centre Campbell Graham (back spasms) listed among the reserves as they look to return from injury. Star forward Keaon Koloamatangi is also listed among the reserves but seems unlikely to play given he suffered a suspected facial fracture agianst the Bulldogs. Davvy Moale moves into the starting side and Sean Keppie joins the bench. With Jayden Sullivan (calf) sidelined, Englishman Lewis Dodd comes in at halfback for his fourth game of the season.

Storm: The club's Origin contingent of Cameron Munster, Harry Grant, Trent Loiero, Xavier Coates and Stefano Utoikamanu have all been named to play so the only change to the side that beat the Cowboys before the bye is Bronson Garlick joining the bench for Ativalu Lisati. Back-rower Alec MacDonald is listed among the reserves as he looks to return from a quad injury.
