Last updated:
Eels: Joey Lussick will start the game at hooker and Ryley Smith moves to the bench in a late swap. Charlie Guymer has been added to the bench in place of Wiremu Greig and Jordan Samrani drops to 18th man. Young gun Joash Papalii is set to start the first match of his career in the halves alongside Dean Hawkins after Dylan Brown (suspension) and Mitchell Moses (calf) were ruled out. Zac Lomax will back up from Origin.
Titans: The Titans are 1-17 with no late changes. Tino Fa'asuamaleaui and Moeaki Fotuaika will come from the bench after coming through Origin Two unscathed. David Fifita (ankle) was named in the extended squad but dropped out on Saturday. "Dave's getting close, he is going well, but we won't rush that one," Hasler said. Centre Jojo Fifita returns from a hand injury and will come straight back into the starting side. Tom Weaver is 18th man.
