Jerome Veve returns from suspension to join the Gold Training Titans interchange bench for Saturday’s clash with the Parramatta Eels – the match that will be played at Pizzey Park at 1.30pm.
The Holden Cup game is being moved to make way for the women’s Queensland v NSW State of Origin clash which will be played as a preliminary game to the NRL clash at Cbus Super Stadium.
AJ Brimson, selected at halfback last week but who did a fine job at fullback against the Dragons, has been retained in that position. Josh Rogers and Josh Ralph, who scored three tries and had his best game of the season against the Dragons, are in the halves.
Daniel Brownbill, one of the promising 18-year-olds in the squad, has been chosen on the wing and will play his third NYC game of the season.
