Billy Slater has only made 1 change to his starting 13 for game 2, with Briton Nikora starting in the second row, shifting Reuben Cotter to lock and Max Plath to the bench.

As predicted Kulikefu Finefeuiaki gets his place in the side and will look to impact off the bench and could be vital for QLD to keep the series alive.

Much to the dismay of QLD fans online, Trent Loiero keeps his place on the QLD bench over Heilum Luki who is 20th man. Murray Taulagi returns to the side but Slater has opted to give Jojo Fifita a second crack on the wing. Reece Walsh is a surprise selection at 18th man considering his poor form this season including back-to-back losses to the Dragons and the Titans.

None the less a strong side picked by Slater, can they force a decider?
