ROUND 11 LATE MAIL

RABBITOHS

1. Latrell Mitchell, 2. Alex Johnston, 3. Dane Gagai, 21. Campbell Graham, 5. Josh Mansour 6. Cody Walker, 7. Adam Reynolds, 8. Tom Burgess, 9. Damien Cook, 10. Tevita Tatola, 11. Keon Koloamatangi, 12. Jaydn Su’a, 13. Liam Knight

Bench: 14. Benji Marshall, 15. Mark Nicholls, 17. Jai Arrow, 22. Jed Cartwright

Reserves: 4. Braidon Burns, 19. Hame Sele

Players cut: 16. Jacob Host, 18. Dean Hawkins, 20. Patrick Mago

Late Mail: The Rabbitohs welcome back Latrell Mitchell after missing the last few weeks due to suspension. Mitchell slots straight back in at fullback which sees Cody Walker move back to his preferred 5/8 position and Benji Marshall drop to the bench. Campbell Graham will start in the centres in place of Braidon Burns after passing a fitness test on Saturday. Josh Mansour returns on the right wing after recovering from a hamstring injury and getting two full weeks of training under belt. Adam Reynolds is set to play despite suffering a cork at training.

PANTHERS

21. Paul Momirovski, 2. Charlie Staines, 3. Stephen Crichton, 4. Matt Burton, 5. Brian To’o, 6. Jarome Luai, 7. Nathan Cleary, 10. James Fisher-Harris, 9. Apisai Koroisau, 16. Matt Eisenhuth, 11. Viliame Kikau, 12. Kurt Capewell, 13. Isaah Yeo

Bench: 14. Tyrone May, 15. Scott Sorensen, 17. Liam Martin, 18. Spencer Leniu

Reserves: 19. Mitch Kenny, 22. Robert Jennings

Players cut: 1. Dylan Edwards, 8. Moses Leota, 20. J’maine Hopgood

Late Mail: Late changes for Penrith ahead of the blockbuster with fullback Dylan Edwards and prop Moses Leota late exclusions. The Panthers have named Paul Momirovski at fullback but a switch between he and Stephen Crichton seems likely. Matt Eisenhuth was promoted from the bench to start in place of Leota with Spencer Leniu coming in to the reserves. The Panthers will welcome back Kurt Capewell after he missed Magic Round due to concussion but he could start from the bench with Liam Martin starting on right edge next to Nathan Cleary. Tyrone May left the field due to HIA in the last 15 minutes of the game on Sunday and could be in some doubt; if ruled out Mitch Kenny would come onto the bench.
