I'm just going off who I know is available. Sam was slated for round 19 so could be back this week. But Ryles may want him to get some game time in reserve grade given he's had 2 months off.
Sam played reserve grade this week. I recon he is good to go. Latu was a last minute withdrawal from reserve grade. Not sure if it is because of injury or perhaps this rumour is correct.
I don't think TDS starts for his Parra debut. I also don't know if we'll continue playing Joash off the bench if we want him to switch to 5/8 next year. He's probably better off playing that position at cup level.
I think that is the option we will go. Matt Hunter who had been good in cup had a shit game this week espically in defence. Not sure if he was injured or hooked from the game as he did not finish the game. So perfect time for Joash to play 6 in cup this week.

Spinal injury according to the injury reports.
Where's Sam Tuivaiti?

I think Da Silva starts
Doorey might be named at 11 then swap just before game time
Could be a bench of
14. Walker
15. Latu
16. Tuivaiti
17. Papali'i/Moretti (if fit)

Perhaps
Could see Lussick starting as EA said.
He was most impressive In his pre season trial pit of all our juniors who were given a run. Hopefully he makes the most of the opportunity
