Rilee Jorgensen will return for her second NRLW appearance as the Titans prepare for their first interstate trip to Sydney to face the Sharks on Saturday.

The only change to last week's 17 that defeated the Broncos at The Gabba, the 18-year-old bolter replaces Kaitlyn Phillips on the bench, with Zara Canfield named to return from injury after being a late withdrawal from the M1 derby at the captain's run last week.

Taking her debut by storm after only finding out on game day, the Future Titans alumni made her mark with a solid 58 minutes full of big hits and an ultra-eager defensive attitude, excited to remain in the 17 taking on Cronulla.

On the extended bench, coach Karyn Murphy welcomes back experienced flyer and rising star Hailee-Jay Ormond-Maunsell from injury, with the duo a chance of playing their first game of 2023 after being named in the reserves.

In further good news, Jessika Elliston passed her head injury assessment after being sent from the field in golden-point which will see her back in action this week; meanwhile, Evania Pelite and Steph Hancock have been cleared of any major injuries and have also been named for the clash.

Kick-off is at 3.10pm on Saturday at PointsBet Stadium, Sydney.
