Significant Harold Matthews Selections: Josh Curran comes back immediately into the starting team team at prop, pushing Pele Vaigalu back to the bench. No sign of Travis Turnbull.
Significant SG Ball Selections: Anthony Layoun makes his return from injury in the centres at the expense of Vinnie Tikeri.

Now that's one very strong prop rotation for the HM cup team. I thought PJ and Jesse were awesome last week and now that Josh Curran is back after his representative weekend we'll be even stronger in the middle, we'll be very hard to beat if these 3 can stay on the field for us.
Anthony Layoun for the SG Ball team will add a lot of attacking spark and hopefully when we get into the red zone we can strike up better combinations. Big shame that we won't be able to watch the teams this week as we'll be facing a Sharks team that had the first round bye.
40/20 any news on NRL, NSW Cup and U20 `s teams?
Probably won't be announced until tomorrow as team-list Tuesday is now Who's gonna play Wednesday.
Too old for all these changes!
Hopefully Afualo can build on his two-try performance last week.
First time I've seen Afualo play in the highlights from Forty. Very impressed. And while he's obviously got a powerful running game, I thought his decision making on his passing was impressive. Set up his winger nicely, and turned it inside once intelligently. Very good sign in a kid that age of footballing intelligence.
Exactly why I was impressed as well. It is all too easy for a blockbusting back (for example, Jacob Loko) to simply rely on speed and sheer power to star in the junior grades. Afualo certainly backed himself plenty but he was always willing to look for his winger when he was in a better position than himself.
SG Ball Result below.
Parramatta 40 (Dane Aukafolau 3, Dean Matterson, Joseph Tramontana, Tangi Hokai, Denzel Tonise tries; Anthony Layoun 3, Simon Fonua 3 goals) def Cronulla 14 (Curtis Scott, Blayke Brailey, Jesse Savage tries; Jack Williams goal)
Aukafolau has 4 on the season & is equal 2nd in top try-scorer list.
Harold Matthews result
Parramatta 22 (Ethan Perry, Jess Cronin, Pele Vaigalu, Travis Turnbull tries; Alex Seve 3 goals)def Cronulla 10 (Bronson Xerri, Jaeman Salmon tries; Luke Metcalfe goal)
No tries for Afualo, he stays on 2 tries.
Thanks Ricky, were they away games? If so more impressive. Parra does not like being away from home!
