There are a couple of changes to the team that defeated the Eels in Round 4.
Lehi Hopoate shifts from wing to fullback replacing Tom Trbojevic (knee), with Clayton Faulalo filling Hopoate’s place on the wing.
Toafofoa Sipley returns to the squad as cover for middle forward Josh Aloiai (shoulder) with Nathan Brown elevated to the starting side and Sipley named on the bench.
Aloiai is expected to miss just the one week and should be available for next week’s Round 6 match against the Sharks in Perth.
Those wishing to attend Sunday’s Multicultural Round match against Melbourne are encouraged to reserve their tickets well in advance with another sellout on the cards.
The Sea Eagles currently occupy second place on the NRL ladder after winning all three games played at 4 Pines Park this season.
