Late mail: Hasler confirms Origin duo's role for Eels showdown
Des Hasler has confirmed Maroons duo Tino Fa'asuamaleaui and Moeaki Fotuaika will start from the bench for their clash against the Eels at CommBank Stadium.
Confirmed to back up from Origin on Saturday, the pair will bolster the side when they come on later in the contest with the Titans coach opting for the starting forward pack that set the platform for their win against the Sea Eagles last Friday.
Remaining unchanged and as per program for their quest at Parramatta, an important milestone beckons for an exciting young gun with Jojo Fifita to make his 50th NRL appearance in his first game back upon fracturing his hand in Round 13 against the Storm.
Kick-off is at 6.15pm; live on Fox League and Kayo Sports.
