Two weeks remain in the NRL regular season and there is still plenty to play for, with multiple clubs clamouring for spots in the top eight or top four.

Tyson Frizell is expected back for Newcastle after serving a one-game ban, while Melbourne should see the likes of Jahrome Hughes, Nelson Asofa-Solomona and Tui Kamikamica return. 

Keoan Koloamatangi and Luke Thompson are facing suspensions, while the likes of Maika Sivo and Nat Butcher could be sidelined through injury.

Here's how each side will likely line up in round 24.
