Raiders v Warriors, Friday 8.00pm at GIO Stadium
Raiders: Halfback Jamal Fogerty makes his return from a bicep injury that has seen him on the sidelines since Round 7 in a major boost for Ricky Stuart's side. The Raiders also welcome back Hudson Young (groin) and Zac Hosking (shoulder) as they look to keep in touch with the top eight.
Warriors: The Warriors have been dealt a major blow with Tohu Harris ruled out for the remainder of the season following wrist surgery during the week. Coach Andrew Webster has also been forced into a backline reshuffle with Taine Tuaupiki to start at fullback, Ali Leiataua in the centres and Roger Tuivasa-Sheck on the wing. NSW prop Mitchell Barnett has been named to back up just two days after a powerhouse Origin debut in Brisbane.

Storm: All eyes will be on Maroons hooker Harry Grant as he looks to feature in his first game for Melbourne since Round 15. Grant's load has been managed throughout the State of Origin series but he has been named to start on Saturday night. Centre Nick Meaney is also set to return from a calf injury, with Grant Anderson shifting to the wing.
Roosters: Star centre Joseph-Aukuso Sua'ali'i will make his return from a four-game suspension for a high tackle in the Origin opener. Enforcer Victor Radley is also back from a concussion while coach Trent Robinson has named his four representative players in the 17 pending a check-up on Thursday afternoon. "They all got cleared last night but I need to check in with them to make sure they are OK there and I'll make a decision before training tonight," Robinson said.

Panthers v Dolphins, Sunday 2.00pm at BlueBet Stadium
Panthers: Halfback Nathan Cleary is preparing for his first match since Round 10 in a major boost for the premiers. Coach Ivan Cleary has taken a more cautious approach with his Origin players with Dylan Edwards and Isaah Yeo not named. Edwards looks set to miss 2-4 weeks with a knee injury picked up in Game Three so Daine Laurie could be set for a longer run at fullback. Liam Martin, Jarome Luai and Brian To'o have been named on an extended bench.
Dolphins: Fullback Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow will feature in his first club game since picking up a shoulder injury in Origin Two, while Felise Kaufusi seems certain to back up after playing just 16 minutes for the Maroons on Wednesday night. Back-up fullback Trai Fuller remains in the 17 and will start if Tabuai-Fidow is ruled out.
