NRL Late Mail: Finals Week 3

Panthers v Rabbitohs, Saturday at Accor Stadium

Panthers: A late change on game day with Mitch Kenny starting at hooker and Api Koroisau going to the bench as they did in Week 1 of the finals. The miinor premiers will be without Taylan May, whose suspension for a high tackle sees Charlie Staines come into the side on the wing for his 14th game of the season. Spencer Leniu is free to play after accepting a monetary fine for his high tackle.

Rabbitohs: No further changes on game day after winger Alex Johnston was ruled out on Friday with a hip flexor injury. His place is taken by Richard Kennar. Bench forward Siliva Havili (calf) will miss the match, replaced by Jed Cartwright, who has recovered from a hamstring injury and will play his first game since Round 20. Jai Arrow is good to go after suffering a groin injury against last week.
