The Toyota Forklift Raiders have named their squad for the round seven match against the St George Illawarra Dragons at GIO Stadium Canberra on Sunday afternoon.
Jack Wighton (Suspension), Nick Cotric (Hamstring) and Joe Tapine (birth of first child) are all set to return to the team this week in what will be a huge boost for the Green Machine.
All three return to the starting line-up for the Raiders, with Cotric replacing Jordan Rapana who will miss this match after a category one concussion against the Broncos on Saturday night. Rapana is subject to the 11-day stand-down period.
Tapine moves back into his regular starting position in the front row, with Pasami Saulo moving back to the bench and Peter Hola into the extended squad.
Jack Wighton replaces Brad Schneider at five-eighth.
