Late mail: Young gun to start in front row switch
Queensland Under 19 forward Takoda Thompson has been promoted to the starting side for the Titans' tussle against the Wests Tigers in Sydney.
Making her NRLW debut last week, the highly-touted teen will start from the opening whistle at prop, with Natasha Penitani moving to the bench in the only change made by coach Karyn Murphy for the must-win clash.
Jaime Chapman is a confirmed starter at fullback after missing last week due to hamstring tightness - her inclusion one of four additions to bolster the side alongside Sarina Masaga, Laikha Clarke and Lailani Montgomery who all make their first appearance of the 2025 season.
Kick-off is at 11.50am; live on Channel 9, 9Now, Fox League and Kayo Sports.
