WHO'S in and who's out for round 17 of the 2012 NRL season.

BRONCOS V SHARKS

The Sharks and the Broncos will go into tonight's game unchanged. Jon Green and Sam Tagataese travelled with the Sharks as cover for any last-minute injuries.

EELS V KNIGHTS

Matt Keating has been cleared to play despite being concussed last week. No decision on the extended bench has been made. Reni Maitua is expected to come on to the bench at the expense of Taniela Lasalo. The Knights are yet to make a final decision on the make-up of their extended bench.

WARRIORS V COWBOYS

Anthony Mitchell travelled with the Cowboys to New Zealand yesterday and may be a shock inclusion on the bench. The Cowboys are yet to hear from Queensland officials on whether Matt Bowen will be available to play for them this weekend. If he remains in the Maroons' Origin camp, Ashley Graham will play fullback. Antonio Winterstein will then move to the wing and either Moses Pangai or Gavin Cooper will play in the centres. The Warriors are 1-17.

RABBITOHS V PANTHERS

Travis Burns (cheek) and Luke Walsh (shoulder) could play this weekend after both players completed light training. A final decision will be made tomorrow. Penrith officials say Josh Mansour (back) will not play this weekend. Michael Gordon has completed two weeks of full training duties and will return for the Panthers in round 19. The Rabbitohs are still to hear if Dave Taylor will be available, but he is certain to play for Souths if released from Queensland's Origin camp.

RAIDERS V DRAGONS

Trent Merrin will train today and come into the starting 17. Josh Miller is expected to drop off the bench. Joe Picker (arm) and Bronson Harrison (hamstring) are likely to play for the Raiders after training well. Joel Thompson (hand) and Shaun Berrigan will train today for the first time this week and are both a chance to play.
