Des Hasler and Stephen Kearney have trimmed their squads for tomorrow’s clash at Mt Smart Stadium.
The Bulldogs named a squad of 22 players on Tuesday, with 17 named plus five extra reserves.
Winger Brett Morris has been ruled out of this weekend’s game following New South Wales' lost to Queensland last night, but his team-mates David Klemmer and Josh Jackson are both poised to back up 48 hours after Origin II.
Kerrod Holland will come into the starting side on the wing and this weekend will also see the return of Josh Reynolds from a hamstring injury.
The homeside has also made changes with Kieran Foran being ruled out after not recovering from an injury he sustained in the Warriors win over the Gold Coast Titans in Round 14 and winger Manu Vatuvei will also drop out of the 21.
It means Ata Hingano will now start at five-eighth and partner Shaun Johnson in the halves.
