“At the moment with Cam, he’s an outside chance of playing next week,” Hornby said ahead of Saturday’s game against the Gold Coast Titans. “He’s just week-to-week, ticking the boxes as we go.

Star back-rower David Fifita, who missed selection for the Maroons in the series opener, will be looking to make an impact, while the Titans welcome back their play-making captain Kieran Foran and winger Jojo Fifita from injury. Additionally, fullback Jayden Campbell has been named on the bench after recovering from a knee injury suffered in Round 6.
On the Souths side, veteran Cody Walker returns after overcoming a calf issue and will partner with Jack Wighton in the halves.
