Rob Derby, Jake Clifford, Jason Taumalolo and Jeremiah Nanai all hold their spots after successful returns last weekend.

Centre Viliami Vailea has also been named after suffering an eye injury against the Broncos.

Zac Laybutt has been included in the reserves for the first time in 2025 as he edges closer to a return from an ACL injury.
