Round 19 NRL Teams

WARRIORS v BULLDOGS
@ Mt Smart Friday Night
WAR: Locke, Tupou, Moon, Berrigan, Vatuvei, Maloney, Johnson, Packer, Heremaia, Lillyman, Mateo, Mannering (c), Luck. Bench: Hohaia, Sam Rapira, Matulino, Taylor, Steve Rapira.
[Team Changes - The Warriors lost Lewis Brown early in their game against the Gold Coast to an ankle injury and he is replaced by Joel Moon here. There is no reprieve for Krisnan Inu. Steve Rapira is once again the 18th man in an otherwise unchanged lineup. ]

CBY: Barba, Turner, Idris, Morris, Wright, Keating, Hodkinson, Tolman, Halatau, Kasiano, Pritchard, Ryan (c), Stagg. Bench: Eastwood, Taupau, Warburton, Millington.
[Team Changes - The Bulldogs still don't have Michael Ennis back after his throat/lung injury in Origin 3. Corey Payne was a late scratching in Adelaide and is not named, so Gary Warburton keeps his spot and Grant Millington is the new 18th man. ]
BRONCOS v TITANS
@ Suncorp Friday Night
BRI: Hoffman, Beale, Reed, Hodges, Yow Yeh, Lockyer (c), Wallace, Hannant, McCullough, Anderson, Glenn, Thaiday, Parker. Bench: Gillett, Hunt, Dodds, McGuire, Baptiste, Lui.
[Team Changes - The Broncos had the Bye in RD18 but return of key Origin players see Dale Copley, Dane Gagai, Nick Kenny, Corey Norman and David Hala make way. Mitchell Dodds, Josh McGuire and Ben Hunt look the most likely to join Matt Gillett on the final bench. ]
GLD: Capewell, Michaels, Toopi, Thompson, Mead, Zillman, Prince (c), Bailey, Srama, Laffranchi, Bird, Minichiello, Harrison. Bench: White, Henderson, O'Dwyer, Campbell, Lawrence.
[Team Changes - The Titans get Greg Bird back from being rested and promote Luke Capewell to fullback after the one game comeback of Mat Rogers (foot) ended and Jordan Rankin was dropped. Anthony Laffranchi has once again been named at prop with Michael Henderson going to the bench. Preston Campbell is listed to return from injury on the bench, while Esi Tonga is not recalled. ]
RABBITOHS v ROOSTERS
@ ANZ Saturday Night
SOU: Wesser, Merritt, Farrell, Inglis, McQueen, Sutton, Sandow, Ross, Luke, McPherson, Clark, Pettybourne, Crocker (c). Bench: L Burgess, Tyrrell, Lowe, Peats, Corrigan.
[Team Changes - The Bunnies have doubts over Rhys Wesser and Nathan Merritt but have named both in an unchanged 17 that lost to Manly last Sunday. Shaun Corrigan is the extra man on the bench. ]
SYD: Graham, Perrett, Linnett, Kenny-Dowall, Leilua, T Carney, Pearce, Ryles, Friend, Myles, Anasta (c), Symonds, Nu'uausala. Bench: Mitchell, Arona, Takairangi, Guerra.
[Team Changes - The Roosters still are without Anthony Minichiello (illness) and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves was not named at all after missing last weekend with a shoulder injury. Phil Graham keeps his spot at fullback and Nate Myles shifts to the front row to accommodate Tom Symonds in the backrow. Aiden Guerra gets a recall on the bench for Mose Masoe. Mitchell Pearce has a shoulder injury but is expected to play. ]
PANTHERS v EELS
@ Centrebet Saturday Night
PEN: Coote, Simmons, Jennings, Tighe, Purtell, Burns, Walsh, McKendry, Kingston, Civoniceva (c), Waterhouse, Plum, Lewis. Bench: Seluini, Weston, Smith, Grant, Bell.
[Team Changes - The Panthers have named Michael Jennings to return from a serious ankle injury but might lose Trent Waterhouse to a knee injury sustained in the clash with the Roosters. Junior Vaivai makes way for Jennings, while Nathan Smith would likely start for Waterhouse if he misses. Matthew Bell is the new face on an extended bench. ]
PAR: Hayne, Burt, Morgan, Smith, Atkins, McGuire, Robson, Mannah, Keating, MoiMoi, Hindmarsh (c), Lasalo, Horo. Bench: Shackleton, Allgood, Manuokafoa, Maitua.
[Team Changes - The Eels might get Jeff Robson back from a hammy injury and that could see Jarryd Hayne's one match at five-eighth become a cameo - but in position only. Etu Uaisele was left out to accommodate Robson. ]
COWBOYS v TIGERS
@ Dairy Farmers Saturday Night
NQL: Bowen, Graham, Tate. Tonga, Fai-Fai Loa, Thompson, Morgan Scott (c), Payne, Tamou, Cooper, Hall, Johnson. Bench: Segeyaro, Riethmuller, A Sims, T Sims, C Paterson, W Tupou, L Ah Mau, .
[Team Changes - The Cowboys won't have Johnathan Thurston until Round 22 probably so Michael Morgan starts at halfback again. Willie Tonga has been named despite a corked thigh and will be partnered for the first time in the centres this year by Brent Tate who is back from a knee injury. Scott Bolton might be a late starter and to add to the embarrassment of riches in the backrow - Tariq Sims returns from suspension. Aaron Payne has also been named after missing the Newcastle clash with a hand injury, Clint Amos makes way as does Will Tupou. ]
WTG: Moltzen, Ryan, Ayshford, Lawrence, Brown, Marshall, Lui, Gibbs, Farah (c), Galloway, Fulton, Ellis, Heighington. Bench: Meaney, Payten, Woods, Fifita.
[Team Changes - The Tigers have lost (or dropped) Wade McKinnon (ribs) and put Tim Moltzen in at fullback. Liam Fulton is back in from a concussion for Ben Murdoch-Masila (Leg) and Sean Meaney is the new utility on the bench. ]
RAIDERS v STORM
@ Canberra Sunday Afternoon
CAN: Dugan, Ferguson, Croker, Thompson, Vidot, McCrone, Williams, White, Tongue (c), Tilse, Galea, Harrison, Fensom. Bench: Buttriss, Picker, Mataora, Thurling, Miller.
[Team Changes - Canberra finally get Josh Dugan back and he replaces Nathan Massey at fullback. Daniel Vidot comes in for the injured Reece Robinson and Bronson Harrison and Danny Galea come in for the injured Josh Papalii and benched Joe Picker in the backrow. Josh Miller is the new face on the bench. ]
MEL: Slater, Duffie, Nielsen, M Blair, Waqa, Widdop, Cronk, Bromwich, Smith (c), Norrie, A Blair, Manu, Proctor. Bench: Kostjasyn, Hinchcliffe, Woolnough, Lowe.
[Team Changes - The Storm have retained the same 17 that beat the Bulldogs in Adelaide. Sika Manu starts in the backrow and Ryan Hinchcliffe goes to the bench. There may be changes closer to kick off with a host of quality players named in the NSW Cup affiliate and Craig Bellamy loves to shuffle in order to rest players when he can. ]
KNIGHTS v SEA EAGLES
@ AusGrid Sunday Afternoon
NEW: W Naiqama, McManus, Sa'u, Lulia, Uate, Stigg, Mullen, Fa'aoso, Hilder, Tuimavave, Houston, Edwards, Southern. Bench: Stig, Kaufusi, Ciraldo, Tolar, Taufua, Roberts.
[Team Changes - The Knights lost Kurt Gidley to a hammy injury in the loss to the Cowboys but have named Isaac De Gois, Neville Costigan, Evarn Tuimavave and Keith Lulia to return from injury. Adam MacDougall makes way for Lulia, while Hilder drops to the bench for De Gois. Tuimavave starts for Dan Tolar and Costigan comes in for Steve Southern. Ryan Stig starts at five-eighth for Gidley. ]
MAN: B Stewart, Robertson, Lyon (c), Matai, D Williams, K Foran, Cherry-Evans, King (c), Ballin, Kite, Watmough, Galuvao, G Stewart. Bench: Mauro, Buhrer, Rodney, Rose, Robinson, Lussick.
[Team Changes - Jason King has been named despite a hammy injury and is in serious doubt. Glenn Stewart played 80 minutes with his own hammy injury but should play. Steven Matai is back from suspension with Michael Oldfield making way. Darcy Lussick and Tim Robinson are the extra men on the bench. There is still no William Hopoate who is out with a hammy injury. ]
DRAGONS v SHARKS
@ WIN Jubilee Monday Night
STI: Boyd, Morris, Gasnier, Cooper, Nightingale, Soward, Fien, Hunt, Young, Weyman, Scott, Creagh, Prior. Bench: Green, Rein, Cuthbertson, Merrin.
[Team Changes - The Dragons are boosted by the return of Matt Cooper and Beau Scott but have lost skipper Ben Hornby with a hand injury. Given their last game was pre-Origin 3 there are a host of changes but the key INS are Brett Morris, Mark Gasnier, Darius Boyd, Jamie Soward and Ben Creagh. Nathan Fien goes to halfback for Hornby and Dean Young starts at hooker. Kyle Stanley has a groin injury so Mitch Rein is the preferred utility on the bench. ]
CRO: Gardner, M Wright, Pomeroy, Best, Stapleton, Graham, Townsend, Cordoba, Morris, Douglas, Smith, Bukuya, Gallen (c). Bench: Tupou, Tagataese, Flanagan, Tautai, Mannah.
[Team Changes - The Sharks have rested Paul Gallen from training until Friday to let his body recoup after Origin. Kade Snowden has not been named this week due to a persistent neck injury. ]
