Late Mail: The Panthers could welcome Isaah Yeo back from the pectoral injury that threatened to end his season, with coach Ivan Cleary declaring the co-captain’s reocvery has been “quite extraordinary”. “It’s definitely a chance”, Cleary said of Yeo playing on Sunday. “We have to get through the next couple of days, but it has been a pretty good process so far in terms of trying to get him back and being able to play. To this point, everything has been going ok. (We) just have to get through the next couple of days. “It’s quite extraordinary at this point,” Cleary added of Yeo’s recovery.“Our culture has been built on many things, and being resilient is one of those things. Just over the years, guys have found their way to get themselves back on the field, so this could be another one of those stories, but as I said, he still needs to get through a couple things.” Scott Sorensen (calf tightness) is being rested.
Tigers Team: 1. Jahream Bula 2. Junior Tupou 3. Solomane Saukuru 4. Patrick Herbert 5. Jeral Skelton 6. Jarome Luai 7. Jock Madden 8. Terrell May 9. Apisai Koroisau 10. Fonua Pole 11.

Players cut: 21. Charlie Murray 22. Faaletino Tavana
Late Mail: Benji Marshall confirmed Jarome Luai will line up despite being under an injury cloud, but added that the outgoing five-eighth will probably only play half of the game as he wants to also give Latu Fainu an opportunity to get a run before the end of the season.
