Last updated:

Jets: Jackson Ferris starts at centre in place of Mawene Hiroti, who was a try-scorer in the club's NSW grand final victory. Skipper Billy Burns lines up in the second row and grand final player of the match Niwhai Puru at halfback. Five-eighth Khaled Rajab is good to go despite a shoulder concern carried through the week. Jordan Swann is the replacement player. 

Devils: No further changes for the Devils after they had some big outs 24 hours before kick-off, having originally named the same squad that overcame Redcliffe in their Queensland Cup decider a fortnight ago. Tukimihia Simpkins is out of the side, which promotes George Fai from the interchange. Reserves Zac McGuire and James Flack come onto the bench. Duncan Hall Medal winner Tesi Niu starts at centre following his two-try performance at Kayo Stadium. Dolphins contracted forwards Mason Teague and Oryn Keeley line up in the backrow.
