Two first round winners will face off at Bishop Park on Sunday with the Devils hosting Burleigh in the final match of the round. The Norths backline will feature a familiar name in Jharal Yow Yeh, who will take his latest step in his journey back from injury – one which was once thought so bad he would never play the game again. James Geurtjens is the other new inclusion in the team that defeated the Ipswich Jets last weekend, while Brad McKee has been omitted. Forward Francis Molo will also not feature this week after he was named in the Broncos opening round NYC match against the Bulldogs. Bears coach Carl Briggs has been forced to name a replacement for utility Jamie Dowling who went down with a knee injury in the first minute of the Bears’ win over the Capras. Kyle McConnell was named to start in the back row, but will also have to be replaced after he copped a one-match ban for a shoulder charge. Steve Michaels has been added to the wing, shifting three-try scorer Khan Ahwang into the centres, while Jamie Anderson moves onto the bench. For Burleigh, this could be a tough road trip, with Norths having won four of their past five games between the two sides.

‘Dobbo’ says: A big crowd will be on hand at Bishop Park for the clash between the two round 1 winners. With a new coach and squad, Norths have plenty to prove in this competition. Norths Devils by 6.
