St George Illawarra coach Paul McGregor has named his mandatory 21-man squad ahead of the Dragons' Round 20 clash against the Parramatta Eels at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, Kogarah on Sunday, August 4.
Patrick Kaufusi and Jeremy Latimore (knee) have been named to return on the bench for the Dragons, in an otherwise unchanged team.
Match: Dragons v Eels
Round 20 -
home Team
Dragons
14th Position
away Team
Eels

Venue: Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, Sydney
- Lower grades fight for finals survival
- Custodian's the key in Eels battle
- Calculators at the ready. It's time to win!
Matt Dufty and Josh Kerr drop back to the reserves as a result, with Reece Robson and Jacob Host dropping out of last week's wider squad altogether.
However, if Dufty makes his way back into the Dragons' 17 to face Parramatta on the weekend he will rack up his 50th NRL game.
