SPORT OF DAYS: NRL

Cowboys v Sea Eagles: Schick Preview

Cowboys coach Paul Green will undoubtedly flirt with the idea of giving rest to some of his stars including aging Queensland warriors Johnathan Thurston and Matt Scott, while in the wake of Origin II it has been revealed that five-eighth Michael Morgan has suffered a knee injury that will sideline him for a month.<br />
<br />
With a Cowboys bye the week of Origin III, Green has the option to take a raincheck on resting his rep stars this week.<br />
<br />
It could be argued that they would be fine regardless of whether Thurston and/or Scott suit up, such is Manly's current form line, but the Silvertails are definitely dangerous on their day.<br />
<br />
Coach Trent Barrett moved his charges around last week, placing No.10 Martin Taupau in the second row, winger Matthew Wright on the bench, back-rower Lewis Brown into the centres, No.19 Pita Godinet at five-eighth and interchange prop Josh Starling into the starting 13. It seemed to cause defensive headaches all over the park as the Titans danced in, around and through Manly's line for an easy 30 points that could have been more.<br />

Panthers v Rabbitohs: Schick Preview - NRL

Unknown 0 NRL 02:39

The Panthers started the 2016 season with two straight losses, but have won six of their past 11 matches to sit outside the top eight only on points differential.<br />
<br />
The Rabbitohs started the year with back-to-back wins, but won just three of their next 12 matches to sit in 13th spot on the NRL Telstra Premiership ladder. <br />
<br />
Based on early-season form, you'd have thought the Bunnies would be sure things this Friday night. You'd be wrong. <br />
<br />
The Rabbitohs have lost three straight and could find themselves eight points outside the eight by the end of the round and will be underdogs against a Penrith side that is coming off a spirited win against Manly.   <br />
<br />
The Panthers have the luxury of naming the same 17 that took care of the Sea Eagles in Round 14.<br />
<br />
South Sydney have named a new-look back five upon Adam Reynolds and Greg Inglis's return from Origin duty. Reynolds will partner Luke Keary in the halves with Cody Walker shifting to fullback and Alex Johnston to the wing in place of Dane Nielsen. Inglis replaces Kirisome Auva'a in the centres, while Aaron Gray joins his skipper there too. Siosifa Talakai is out, with Tautalatasi Tasi set to make his NRL debut on the wing. Paul Carter's suspension sees Jack Gosiewski, Patrice Siolo and Ed Murphy join an extended bench.<br />

Titans v Sea Eagles: Schick Preview

Unknown 0 NRL 02:44

Two teams who let two competition points slip through their fingers last week meet on a mid-winter Monday night desperate to keep their finals flame flickering.<br />
<br />
Sitting on the outside of the top eight only on for-and-against, this represents the first of two games at home in the space of a week for the Titans who are without Greg Bird due to Origin commitments and may be missing Konrad Hurrell with a calf complaint.<br />
<br />
A three-game winning streak came to a halt with a disappointing display against the Eels in Darwin last Saturday and with the Raiders, Bulldogs and Panthers all enjoying a bye this weekend Gold Coast needs to return to winning ways in order to stay in touch with the top eight.<br />
<br />
Manly's prospects of a late season surge appeared to have been bolstered when they raced out to a 24-4 lead against Penrith at Brookvale last Sunday but inexplicably conceded 27 unanswered points to sit in 14th place on the Telstra Premiership ladder through 14 rounds.<br />
<br />
After a starring role in the first half against the Panthers Dylan Walker has returned to Blues Origin camp but the Sea Eagles have found a capable replacement with Jamie Lyon returning from a hamstring injury to partner Apisai Koroisau in the halves.<br />
<br />
The loss of Nate Myles to a knee injury has been softened somewhat by Martin Taupau's return from suspension with outstanding prop forward prospect Liam Knight included on an 18-man bench for what would be his NRL debut.<br />

Wests Tigers v Rabbitohs: Schick Preview<br />
<br />
Schick Hydro Preview: Wests Tigers v South Sydney Rabbitohs<br />
ANZ Stadium<br />
Friday, 7.50pm<br />
<br />
For the second time in 2016 the Tigers and Rabbitohs meet at ANZ Stadium in a game that could have serious top eight implications. <br />
<br />
The Bunnies missed a great chance to consolidate their place in the top half of the NRL Telstra Premiership last week but instead left Perth with a heartbreaking golden point loss to the Titans.<br />
<br />
The defeat snapped what had been a promising two-game winning streak; their last loss, incidentally, coming against the Tigers.<br />
<br />
The black and golds were 30-22 victors when these sides met back in Round 9 with Jordan Rankin playing a starring role with two tries after regular fullback James Tedesco was forced from the field with a shoulder injury. <br />
<br />
A loss in aquatic conditions at Allianz Stadium last weekend ended what had been a two-game winning run of their own, and another loss on Friday night could see them fall six points adrift of where they want to be. <br />
<br />
Robbie Farah is the big inclusion for the Tigers at hooker with Elijah Taylor shifting to his more familiar role at lock. Kyle Lovett drops back to the bench while Tim Grant returns in place of JJ Felise.<br />

Schick Hydro Preview: Brisbane Broncos v Canberra Raiders<br />
Suncorp Stadium<br />
Thursday, 7:50pm <br />
<br />
It's fourth up against fifth in a game that has two teams in contrasting form going up against each other on Thursday night. <br />
<br />
Brisbane have lost three in a row and look a shadow of their former self of late, with the Broncos' 18-point loss to the New Zealand Warriors in Round 13 a major lowlight for Wayne Bennett's men. <br />
<br />
Canberra have momentum on their side after winning three straight by an average margin of just over 16 points, and the Raiders will be hungry to win at a venue they haven't played at since 2012. <br />
<br />
The lead-up hasn't been plain sailing for Canberra, with the Raiders losing fullback Jack Wighton and prop Shannon Boyd to suspension. <br />
<br />
It means Zac Santo will end a two-year NRL hiatus and start at fullback, with forward Paul Vaughan coming into the starting side. <br />
<br />
The Broncos continue to make mass changes over the State of Origin period and it looks as if Bennett will continue to wield the axe if results don't improve. <br />
<br />
Corey Oates, Matt Gillett and Travis Waddell all come into the side, with Herman Ese'ese, Joe Ofahengaue and Lachlan Maranta dropping out of the 17. <br />
<br />
Adam Blair is dropped to the bench after being named captain just two weeks ago and the New Zealand international will need to make an impact against a large Canberra forward pack.<br />

Schick Hydro Preview: Rabbitohs v Titans <br />
nib Stadium (Perth)<br />
Sunday, 4.30pm (6.30pm AEST)<br />
<br />
It's what they call in the classics a 'four-point game'.<br />
<br />
The halfway point of the 2016 Telstra Premiership season and two teams in the Rabbitohs and the Titans locked together on 12 points apiece sitting just outside the warm embrace of the NRL top eight heading into winter.<br />
<br />
Both went into last weekend's bye on the back of two consecutive wins and know that continuing a winning run at this time of the year will generate confidence and make their finals ambitions appear that much more attainable.<br />
<br />
The Rabbitohs have been dealt a blow with confirmation George Burgess has undergone groin surgery that will keep him sidelined for at least two months with Dave Tyrrell's return on the bench the only change to the team that defeated the Dragons last start.<br />
<br />
The addition of Nathan Peats two weeks ago has taken the Titans' tally of former Rabbitohs to four with Chris McQueen to line up against the club where he played 116 games in the NRL for the first time.<br />
<br />
And of course, the most recent arrival on the Gold Coast, former Warrior Konrad Hurrell, is in line to play for his new club having been named on an extended bench.<br />
<br />
The venue – nib Stadium in Perth – has been a kind one to the Rabbitohs who have won five of the seven home games they have taken to the West Australian capital while for the Titans it represents an historic first appearance in WA on their two-week road trip that concludes with a clash with the Eels in Darwin.<br />

Schick Hydro Preview: North Queensland Cowboys v Newcastle Knights<br />
1300SMILES Stadium<br />
Saturday, 5.30pm<br />
<br />
Newcastle's youth policy has been a contentious one due to the lack of success this year, but they have momentarily muted critics by working their tails off for the full 80 minutes last round; it's a non-negotiable that the young Knights have seemingly now grasped. They possess solid strike on the edges in the form of Sione Mata'utia and two of the competition's fastest in Nathan Ross and Jake Mamo, but have struggled to access it since five-eighth Jarrod Mullen went down in Round 8.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the Cowboys simply hope to get all six Origin men come back unscathed from Wednesday night's series opener. Coach Paul Green has named a full-strength line-up, with an extended bench featuring Rory Kostjasyn, Scott Bolton, Ben Hannant, Patrick Kaufusi and John Asiata.<br />
<br />
Knights coach Nathan Brown has made a few changes since last week's loss to Parramatta, bringing back Dane Gagai (Origin), David Bhana, Jeremy Smith and Pat Mata'utia; while Akuila Uate and Korbin Sims (suspension) drop out. Brown has named a six-man bench.<br />

There may be no Josh Dugan or Johnathan Thurston around to steal the show for their respective teams, but there is still no shortage of talent for either side with two important competition points up for grabs. <br />
<br />
North Queensland will be aiming to keep the minor premiership in close sight, while a win for the Dragons will keep them locked in a four-way battle for eighth position on the NRL Telstra Premiership ladder. <br />
<br />
For the Red V, Jason Nightingale will shift to fullback and Kurt Mann will come on to the wing in the absence of Dugan. <br />
<br />
Joel Thompson also returns from suspension and replaces Origin-bound Tyson Frizell in the back row while Benji Marshall (hamstring) has been named at halfback. <br />
<br />
Jahrome Hughes and Ray Thompson have been named to replace Johnathan Thurston and Michael Morgan in the halves for North Queensland. <br />
<br />
Javid Bowen, Coen Hess and Rory Kostjasyn will also feature with James Tamou, Matt Scott and Justin O'Neill all headed to Origin I next Wednesday.<br />

Sharks v Sea Eagles: Schick Preview

Unknown 0 NRL 02:43

The Sharks are in seventh heaven at the moment on the back of – you guessed it – seven straight wins and are riding high following their record 62-0 drubbing of the Newcastle Knights on Sunday. <br />
<br />
The victory matched their equal-biggest winning margin which was set against this weekend's opponents the Sea Eagles when they trounced them 68-6 in 2005. <br />
<br />
Manly fullback Brett Stewart didn't last seven minutes on that fateful Sunday afternoon and hasn't been named for Saturday night's match due to an ongoing hamstring complaint.<br />
<br />
He was a welcome addition in Manly's Round 3 clash with Cronulla earlier this year in what doubled as his first game of 2016. 'Snake' scored a try and helped orchestrate a gutsy 22-12 win despite the Sea Eagles not touching the ball for the first 10 minutes of the contest. <br />
<br />
They would love him out there this weekend as they look to snap a two-game losing streak; those defeats albeit coming against last year's grand finalists. <br />
<br />
Matt Prior (knee) will miss a week for the Sharks and has been replaced by Jayson Bukuya who returns from suspension. <br />
<br />
The Sea Eagles have made a number of changes with Steve Matai slotting back into the centres while Jamie Buhrer plays his first game since breaking his thumb against the Roosters in Round 4. Josh Starling also returns via the bench with Tom Symonds and Addin Fonua-Blake making way. Martin Taupau will miss the next three weeks through suspension.<br />

Warriors v Raiders: Schick Preview

Unknown 0 NRL 01:36

The NRL Telstra Premiership will break new ground this Saturday, hosting a game in New Plymouth for the first time when the Warriors take on the Raiders.<br />
<br />
It shapes as an important match given both sides currently sit outside the top eight – the Raiders 9th and the Warriors 13th – with the winner a chance of jumping back into the top half of the competition by the end of Round 11.<br />
<br />
The Warriors fell apart in the second half against the Panthers in an eventual 30-18 loss last week, and are missing Solomone Kata to a one-week suspension, with Matt Allwood replacing him in the centres.<br />
<br />
The return of workhorse lock Simon Mannering is a huge boost for the Warriors, while prop Sam Lisone comes onto the bench and rookie Toafofoa Sipley is named at 18th man.<br />
<br />
A number of positional changes sees Issac Luke start at hooker in the place of Jazz Tevaga, and Ben Matulino return to the starting side ahead of James Gavet.<br />

Monday, 7pm<br />
<br />
If you'd asked Titans coach Neil Henry whether he'd be content to be sitting ahead of the Roosters on the ladder through nine rounds of the Telstra Premiership and you may have even cracked a gleeful grin.<br />
<br />
But the fact the Titans are coming off the back of a 38-0 flogging that was their fifth loss on the trot and Henry's mood will be suddenly sullen.<br />
<br />
Three wins in the opening month of the season now seem like a lifetime ago for the Titans while the Roosters finally cracked their duck in Round 6 and bolstered by the return of Mitchell Pearce put 38 unanswered points on the Knights.<br />
<br />
Papua New Guinea pair David Mead and Nene Macdonald were the Titans' only representatives in senior fixtures over the weekend while the Roosters provided seven players to various teams, all of whom came through unscathed.<br />
<br />
The Titans have recalled prop David Shillington after he was left out of the team that went down 38-0 to the Storm with Eddy Pettybourne and Anthony Don named on an extended bench.<br />

Eels v Rabbitohs: Preview

Unknown 0 NRL 02:21

The NRL's preliminary findings and penalties around the club's salary cap breach are still very much preliminary, but if the 12-point penalty ends up being the final one in terms of competition points, the team still has a chance of making the finals if they can win 11 or 12 of their final 15 games – not unachievable given their form so far and remaining draw.<br />
<br />
It does mean they can ill-afford to stumble at the first hurdle though, and a desperate Bunnies side coming in off the back of four straight losses (and with just one win in six games since their strong 2-0 start to the year) presents an intriguing challenge.<br />
<br />
The Rabbitohs can't afford to be distracted by the whirlwind of drama though. In fact, if ever there was a time for a club to cling to that most trite and overused of all rugby league clichés and just worry about themselves and what they can control, it’s this week.<br />
<br />
On the team sheet front, Eels players and fans have been dealt a savage blow with the departure late in the week of popular hooker Nathan Peats to the Gold Coast to fix the board's salary cap dilemma. Expect Isaac De Gois to start with Kaysa Pritchard the most likely call-up on the bench.<br />

Roosters v Knights: Schick Preview - NRL

Unknown 0 NRL 00:21

Schick Hydro Preview: Sydney Roosters v Newcastle Knights<br />Allianz Stadium<br />Saturday, 5.30pm<br /><br />It's hard to imagine that these two sides played off in a preliminary final in 2013. Fast forward three years and Saturday evening's Round 9 Telstra Premiership showdown will be a battle to avoid bottom place on the ladder.<br /><br />Much has been made of the Roosters' woes this year, but in a rare bit of good news, it appears they're returning to full strength with the triumvirate of Mitchell Pearce, Boyd Cordner and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves set to run out for the first time together in 2016. <br /><br />With just one win from their opening eight matches, all hopes of a fourth straight minor premiership are long gone, but the 2013 premiers know that they are still a mathematical chance of making the top eight if they can win 11 of their next 16 games. <br /><br />That will have to start against a Newcastle side that sits one point clear of the Tricolours in 15th place. The youthful Novocastrians have more than held their own in recent weeks (apart from the crushing loss against Brisbane) with tight losses to the Storm and Sea Eagles and a gutsy win over fellow strugglers the Wests Tigers.<br /><br />There are enough changes amongst both sides this week to make your head spin. The Roosters finally welcome back Pearce and Waerea-Hargreaves, while Isaac Liu is back from suspension. Brendan Elliot and Mitchell Frei drop out of the 17 with Mitchell Aubusson shifting to the centres.<br />
