Tim Taranto has been ruled out of the game as he hasn’t fully recovered from his concussion.

The backline is made up of Nick Vlastuin, Ben Miller, Noah Balta, Nathan Broad, Short and Sam Grlj.

Patrick Retschko will start on the wing, alongside Kane McAuliffe, with Dion Prestia in the centre. Hayes-Brown takes the spot in the ruck, alongside followers Jack Ross and Jacob Hopper.

The interchange consists of James Trezise, Tom Burton, Tom Brown, Campbell Gray and Mykelti Lefau.
