St George Illawarra coach Paul McGregor has named a 21-man squad for the Dragons' Round 14 clash against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium, Olympic Park on Monday, June 12.
Tyson Frizell has been named in the back row despite failing to finish the Dragons' four-point win over the Wests Tigers last weekend.
The New South Wales Origin representative will be monitored throughout the week to determine whether he'll play on Monday afternoon.
The team is otherwise unchanged.
In other positive news, Will Matthews will make his long-awaited return in the Intrust Super Premiership after he dislocated his hip back in February's Charity Shield.
