Late Mail: Star enforcer Luke Thompson has been ruled out due to “delayed symptoms of concussion,” with veteran prop Ava Seumanufagai replacing him in the starting side and Joe Stimson joining the bench. The Daily Telegraph reported Matt Dufty is set to be dropped with Jake Averillo the surprise choice to shift to fullback. Corey Allanis likely to come in on the wing with Jacob Kiraz moving to centre. Allan was retained when the squad was trimmed 24 hours out from kick-off. Raymond Faitala-Mariner gets his first start since returning from a long-term foot injury, with Corey Waddell shifting to the bench.

I know people are frustrated with Thompson being overpaid but don't have a go at him for missing a game with concussion. Shit is no joke. Just look at Boyd Cordner or what happened with Junior Seau in the NFL to see how seriously clubs should take it.

Averillo at the back will be intriguing.. I do like the plan LHS of Burton RFM Averillo Jac coming at Penriths RHS defence.
Let Corey run through a few times to chase Burton grubbers and then wallop give it to RFM or Averillo to scorch pass their defence and send Jac over untouched.

If its legit- i hope he is okay. Not sure we will miss him on the field though. 850k and zero impact every week
