NRL Late Mail: Round 27 

Sharks v Raiders, Sunday at PointsBet Stadium

Sharks: There are no further late changes after Oregon Kaufusi was added to the bench on Saturday with Matt Moylan dropping out. Nicho Hynes returns after missing the Knights game with a quad injury and is a vital inclusion. Kayal Iro is 18th man.

Raiders: Ata Mariota starts in the front row, while Hohepa Puru joins the run-on side at lock, with both Corey Horsburgh and Josh Papalii out. Jack Wighton is set to play centre again with Matt Frawley the preferred option at five-eighth, while Jamal Fogarty is good to go despite suffering a facial injury against the Broncos. Trey Mooney is included on the bench.
