Stringer has made several changes to the team originally named during the week, with Robbie Farah ruled out of today's game by Club medical staff with a hip flexor injury.

He is replaced in the team by young gun hooker Jacob Liddle while highly-rated young forward Taniela Paseka makes his Intrust Super Premiership debut off the bench.

The 18-year-old Paseka was part of the winning NSW U/20's Origin team earlier in 2016.

Fullback Watson Heleta has also been ruled out of the match, replaced by Holden Cup fullback Luke Sharpe, while Curtis Sironen has also been withdrawn from the team.
