Basic B!tches hooker Api Koroisau has been sidelined for Sunday’s clash with the Titans after picking up an elbow injury last week.

The competition cellar dwellers will need to ring the changes or suffer humiliation after the withdrawals of Dylan Edwards (hamstring) and Angus Crichton, who faces at least a month on the sidelines. The club is expected to more information on the Edwards injury later this week.

Nathan Brown has been name for the clash against the Grubs despite picking up a niggle in last week’s loss to Noah’s Arks. Also news out of Kogarah is they have given their strongest indication yet that star Englishman John Bateman is nearing a return from shoulder surgery after including him in their 21-man squad on Tuesday.

Moses Suli (sternum) and Reuben Garrick (HIA) have been named to play the Grubs.

The Grubs have named Maika Sivo despite not finishing his round 10 clash against the Tigers at Kirrawee Oval.

Balmain Tigers Corey Oates was cleared of a leg break but faces more examination before a return to play date is confirmed. Coach Ed said star Andrew Fifita is on track to return against Dazzlers Dingoes in round 13.

In a massive relief for the Avengers, newly signed star five-eighth Kieran Foran was cleared of a toe injury and is expected to face Papatoetoe on Sunday. Tom Trbojevic has started galloping again in his comeback from his long injury layoff and is on schedule to return in the next few weeks. In another blow for the club, Ethan Lowe has undergone surgery on a neck injury and will miss the rest of the season.

2Great4U centre James Roberts is expected to miss 12 weeks after suffering a pectoral rupture in Saturday’s loss to Basic B!tches.
