First-choice hooker Wayde Egan and second-rower Bayley Sironen will return in the round 13 encounter with the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles this Saturday.
Egan, who had a calf injury, has been covered for the past few weeks by utility forward Jazz Tevaga, Taniela Otukolo and Roosters signee Freddy Lussick. Egan's return will see Lussick as 18th man, while Otukolo remains on the bench and Tevaga starts again as prop, pairing with big unit Ben Murdoch-Masila.
Sironen will return from the bench, named at 17.
The third return is Rocco Berry, who covers centre for an injured Viliami Vailea, linking up on the wing with Dallin Watene-Zelezniak.
Jack Murchie, Euan Aitken, and captain Tohu Harris make up the rest of the starting forwards with Egan, Tevaga and Murdoch-Masila.
Reece Walsh, Adam Pompey, Marcelo Montoya, Chanel Harris-Tavita and Shaun Johnson join Dallin and Rocco in the starting backs. Bunty Afoa and Aaron Pene make up the rest of the bench.
It will be a four-game round this week as the first State of Origin game for 2022 begins next Wednesday, June 8.
