Brian Kelly is back for his first game since Round 1 as he takes over in the centres from Jordan Samrani (knee). The loss of J'maine Hopgood to a season-ending ACL injury sees Luca Moretti join the bench for his first NRL game of the year.

Papalii played 40min of cup last week before the nrl game
Ahh, I had assumed if picked for 1st grade, couldn't play Cup.
Even though he was not named, is it possible he could play for Cup this week if not used in 1st Grade?
I suspect Luca will start for Walker.
Its a sad day when Kelly is a option how he played that much grade as a known bad defensive centre is a mystery
Wish we'd look if versatile Marata Nuikore would want a release since there aren't any centres available anywhere seems ...a lot better defensively than lazy Kelma and would do a damn lot better defensively at centre than Kelly too!
besides that he'd walk straight in as lock...his great versatility is rare.
Hope Araz gets a look in to start over Kelly, he's a talent
How many years did we give Debelin
Just one. with a club option for a second.

Great to see Moretti back.
At least we are under no pressure to win this game whatsoever. The Eels have thrown the Panthers off their game in the past by utilising 2nd phase.
Be good to see us attack from inside our 20m, get a little creative, as there is zero point to trying to beat the Panthers at their game.
I'd put Walker back to the bench and start with one of Luca, Doorey or Guymer.
Otherwise, cool.
