Late mail: Masaga to debut with Chapman ruled out against Eels
Sarina Masaga will become NRLW Titan #47 with Jaime Chapman ruled out of Gold Coast's clash against Parramatta on Sunday afternoon.
With the Sky Blues star failing a fitness test this week after having battled a slight hamstring niggle sustained during Origin, her omission opens the door for the 19-year-old development young gun to make her debut in the centres.
Rilee Jorgensen has also failed to overcome a back injury with Lailani Montgomery joining the 17 in her place.
The remainder of the side remains as per program with Sienna Lofipo given the green light to return after a minor arm injury kept the Queensland playmaker out of last Saturday's clash against the Sharks.
A must-win clash to keep their finals hopes intact, the Titans will look to make it three wins in a row against the Eels in their first meeting at Eric Tweedale Stadium.
Kick-off is at 1.45pm; live on Channel 9, 9 Now, Fox League and Kayo Sports.
