Entering Round 8, some NRL clubs are set to receive significant boosts to their team, while others have lost key players as they look to clinch the two points.
Some big additions this week include Nathan Cleary, Dominic Youngย and Jai Arrow, while Kalyn Ponga, Junior Tupou and Jamal Fogartyย headline the losses.
Teams will be named on Tuesday at 4pm (AEST), but here is all the latest in news and rumours.
St George Illawarra Dragons vs Sydney Roosters
Shane Flanagan will welcome back Jack Bird (concussion) into the team this week, which means Zac Lomax will slot back to the wing in Christian Tuipulotu's place.
A late inclusion into the team last week after signing from the Super League, hooker Fa'amanu Brown will keep his spot on the interchange bench.
Luciano Leilua (calf) is also slated to make his return to the team after missing the past two weeks with Ben Murdoch-Masilaย dropping out of the side.

After spending an extra week on the sidelines, Sam Walker will re-enter the team for the ANZAC Day clash, pushing Zach Dockar-Clay to drop out of the team.
Winger Dominic Young will return from suspension this round, meaning Michael Jennings will drop down to the reserves with Joseph Suaalii entering the centres once again.
While Sitili Tupouniua (concussion) will return there is still some doubt around if Sandon Smith (elbow) will be available for selection as he continues to recover from injury - it is hard seeing him push Connor Watson out of the team.
