Teams have dropped for Round 7 - and it’s a mixture of welcome returns and some massive injury news.

Join our live blog with Tim Williams by leaving your questions in the comments section below.

And here’s how the teams will line-up for the upcoming round.

Winners

- POD option Tevita Pangai (12 per cent, 530k) should be fit and firing on return form a two week suspension for a late shot on Cooper Cronk. The return will pushes popular cheapie Thomas Flegler to the bench.

- Rookie prop Payne Haas played an astonishing 80 minutes against Canberra and will see his first price rise after a blistering start to the season.

- ‘God 2.0’ Rhyse Martin returns to the starting side but could be a late change as per last week.

- Jason Taumalolo is a huge inclusion on an extended bench, his injury return would be well ahead of schedule.

- Blake Ferguson returns from injury in place of Josh Hoffman.

- Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (hamstring) and Charnze Nicholl-Kolkstad (knee) have both been named but are in doubt with injury.

- Penrith young gun Caleb Aekins is a surprise inclusion at fullback and has jumped into cheapie calculations for the Round 12 bye week.

Losers

- Ryan James (knee) is out long-term in a major blow for the Titans.

- Arguably the greatest cheapie of all time Briton Nikora is out after copping a one-game ban for a dangerous throw charge.

- Luke Keary has been ruled out with concussion but that is also bad news for Latrell Mitchell owners, with the gun centre tipped to shift to the halves where his SuperCoach output is reduced.

- Cheapie prospect Dallin Watene-Zelezniak shifts to centre and therefore bows out of cheapie calculations.

Round 7 NRL team lists have dropped - and fans of RTS and CNZ should be happy.
