St George Illawarra Dragons Head Coach Paul McGregor has made several changes to the finalised line-up for the fixture against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at ANZ Stadium, Olympic Park on Monday.
Dragons winger Brett Morris was a midweek omission from the line-up following a shoulder injury sustained while on representative duty with the NSW Blues.
Unfortunately, the Kiama Knights junior is joined on the injury list by prop Mike Cooper who has been ruled out with a minor neck injury.
Dragons hooker Shane Pumipi will make his Club debut for the Red V after being named on the interchange in lieu of Jack de Belin who played for the Illawarra Cutters in the NSW Cup.
The Northcote Tigers junior is joined by lock Trent Merrin who reverts to the bench with Tyson Frizell starting in his place.
The Wales international is joined by utility Adam Quinlan who gained a late call-up to the starting ranks.
