The Wests Tigers and North Queensland Cowboys bring Magic Round to a close in Round 10. Join The Roar for live scores from 6:25pm AEST.
Luciano Leilua (leg) is back after a brief stint in the injury ward at second row for the Tigers, sending Alex Seyfarth back to the interchange.
Should Tigers persist with Oliver Gildart? The English international has struggled to adapt to the physicality of the NRL in his debut season Down Under. Gildart is at the top of the league for two unwanted categories – most try causes (13) and line breaks conceded at 14 alongside another centre, Morgan Harper, who has lost his place for the foreseeable future at Manly due to his defensive deficiencies.
Cowboys coach Todd Payten has kept his winning line-up intact with Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow to continue his comeback trail off the interchange for the third straight week.
North Queensland have flown under the radar and just keep powering along just behind the Panthers and the Storm. It will be interesting to see how they handle being the outright favourites in a game they should win and win well.

You've been drinking the IRB cool-aid. Yes injuries are bad.. was he injured, no. Thank god the NRL hasn't followed the ridiculous rulings of union.

Spinal injury is more serious than a spectator’s loss of enjoyment.

No, it shouldn't. Red cards are making union unwatchable. More yellows, less reds

Its all because of the flux capacitor

Hence the tear in the space time continuum! He scores the try before it's even been scored.

Alex Twal, still try-less in game 99, might've scored then.

Tigers have been unlucky with their injuries. I think the score might well have been a lot closer if the had everyone fit.
