Storm: Star five-eighth Cameron Munster hasn’t even been included in the 22-man squad this week, suggesting his groin injury is still a fair way off being healed. Jonah Pezet will run again in the halves with Jahrome Hughes, while the Storm also haven’t named big man Nelson Asofa-Solomona, who is battling a hamstring problem. New recruit Shawn Blore is again listed as 18th man.

Warriors: An unchanged line-up from Round 1, with Wayde Egan named at hooker despite failing to finish the loss to the Sharks with an elbow injury. Kurt Capewell is set to play through the pain of a rib cartilage injury too after being named in the back row. Veteran trio Jazz Tevaga, Te Maire Martin and Chanel Harris-Tavita are all in the extended squad after playing well in the club’s reserve grade team last week.

Also back on deck is prop Jared Waerea-Hargreaves (suspension) while back-rower Sitili Tupouniua has been named to play despite suffering a groin injury in Round 1. The Roosters will be without prop Spencer Leniu until Round 10 after he was banned for eight games for contrary conduct.

Dolphins: A big change in the halves sees young gun Isaiya Katoa named at No.7 and Sean O’Sullivan among the reserves. Former Bulldog Jake Averillo is set to make his Dolphins debut, named alongside fellow recruit Herbie Farnworth in the centres with Tesi Niu shifting to the reserves. Back-rower Connelly Lemuelu (knee) and lock Ray Stone (concussion) are both out. Euan Aitken comes in at second row while Max Plaith has been promoted from the bench to lock. Jarrod Wallace joins the bench after being named as 18th man last week.

Dragons: New recruit Luciano Leilua has been named on the bench after missing Round 1 due to suspension. Prop Blake Lawrie is good to go after being ruled out of last week’s win with a rib cartilage injury. After moving into the starting side last week, Raymond Faitala-Mariner has been named on the bench while fellow recruit Hame Sele remains sidelined with a hamstring injury. Last week’s NRL debutant Viliami Fifita is 18th man.
