Raiders v Eels, Sunday 1.45pm at GIO Stadium
Raiders: A big reshuffle for the Raiders with some big inclusions. Co-captain Simaima Taufa returns at lock, moving Chante Temara back to hooker and Emma Barnes to the bench. Hollie-Mae Dodd also returns from suspension into the second row. Mackenzie Wiki has been named for her return at centre. Kerehitina Matua will sit out the next few weeks with suspension, with the new bench for this match seeing Felice Quinlan move from the starting side, with Tatiana Finau moving back into the reserves and Relna Wuruki-Hosea the new 18th player.
Eels: Coach Steve Georgallis has named an unchanged side for this week's match against the Raiders in a reward for his side's immense effort against the Titans last week. Powerful prop Elsie Albert played arguably her best game of the season in a two-try effort, while young centre Rory Owen produced a game-turning moment to help the Eels on their way to their 24-14 win.
