Brisbane Broncos vs South Sydney Rabbitohs

A late hamstring complaint in the build up to the Broncos' clash over the weekend has placed Origin winger Xavier Coates in doubt for Thursday night. Tesi Niu replaced Coates for the Raiders game and is expected to hold his place should Coates remain sidelined. Karmichael Hunt's return to the NRL is likely to continue, with Albert Kelly out injured with a hamstring injury.

The Rabbitohs are set to have Origin trio Damien Cook, Cameron Murray and Jai Arrow for this weekend after being rested for Round 14, while Dane Gagai continues to battle a hand injury and will need to prove his fitness, as will Liam Knight, who suffered a head knock on Saturday. The Daily Telegraphย reports Latrell Mitchell could be rested following his short turnaround from Origin and the win over Newcastle. Would assume Cody Walker makes a return to fullback and Benji Marshall slots in at five-eighth in Mitchell's absence.

As expected, Ivan Cleary will welcome back a plethora of Origin talent, as Nathan Cleary, Isaah Yeo, Jarome Luai, Kurt Capewell and Brian To'o return to the team. Viliame Kikau will need to prove his fitness following an ankle injury in Round 14. Matt Burton and Stephen Crichton will move back to their more traditional roles in the centres. Izack Tago, J'maine Hopgood, Mitch Kenny and Robert Jennings are likely to fall out of the side that lost to Cronulla.

The Chooks will welcome back superstar fullback James Tedesco following his Origin-impacted rest. Ben Marschke is set to miss following his two-game ban and will likely open a place up for Adam Keighran at hooker. There is concern for halfback Sam Walker, who suffered a shoulder injury when leading the Roosters to victory over Gold Coast on the weekend. Siosiua Taukeiaho will be hoping to get the green light for a return following his absence last week. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves has appealed his suspension and will face the Judiciary on Tuesday night.

Ken Maumalo has officially departed the Warriors, playing his last game on the weekend as he moves to the Tigers on an immediate release.

Walsh could be handed a spot in the halves, with Roger Tuivasa-Sheck holding his traditional place at fullback. Adam Pompey also returns following his ban and will slot into Maumalo's spot out wide. Wayde Egan's head knock has placed him in doubt and would be replaced by Jazz Tevaga should he miss. Rocco Berry will also need to prove his fitness after being a late out against the Storm.
