Marion Seve also remains in the centres alongside Reimis Smith after playing his first game of the season last weekend.
After making their debuts during the early rounds of 2023, Jonah Pezet and Bronson Garlick are also eyeing a return to the starting line-up while teammates Cameron Munster and Harry Grant are on Origin duty with the Maroons.
