Following the completion of the ninth round of the 2025 NRL season, several teams will look to change up their team, while others will enter Round 10 with the exact same line-up.
Brian To'o (Penrith Panthers), Ezra Mam (Brisbane Broncos), Matt Burton (Canterbury Bulldogs), Latrell Mitchell (South Sydney Rabbitohs), Harry Grant (Melbourne Storm) and Teig Wilton (Cronulla Sharks) are just some of the names that could be available for selection heading into Round 10.
However, while some return, the likes of Reuben Cotter (North Queensland Cowboys), Brent Naden (Wests Tigers), Jye Gray (South Sydney Rabbitohs) and Thomas Weaver (Gold Coast Titans) are all set to be ruled out for this week.

Although Latrell Mitchell (suspension) will return to the side after a one-game ban, the injury woes have continued at the Rabbitohs with fullback Jye Gray (quad) and hooker Peter Mamouzelos (shoulder) joining the growing casualty ward.
Jamie Humphreys (hamstring) has a slim chance of returning to the field.
Projected Round 10 Team: 1. Jye Gray 2. Bayleigh Bentley-Hape 3. Campbell Graham 4. Euan Aitken 5. Isaiah Tass 6. Jayden Sullivan 7. Lewis Dodd 8. Tevita Tatola 9. Jamie Humphreys 10. Sean Keppie 11. Keaon Koloamatangi 12. Jai Arrow 13. Lachlan Hubner 14. Liam Le Blanc 15. Fletcher Myers 16. Tallis Duncan 17. Davvy Moale
Brisbane Broncos coach Michael Maguire will have a massive decision to make this week. Ezra Mam, who was hit with a nine-match suspension, is available for selection for the first time this season.
"Yeah, he'll be ready to play if he's called upon," Maguire said.
"He's worked really hard in the background, and I guess until you're actually playing games, you can't qualify in that, but he's done everything he possibly can to give himself the opportunity to come into selection.
"I talk to my leaders all the time about how the team looks and what we're doing and moving towards."
It has since been reported that Mam will instead make his return from suspension for the Souths Logan Magpies this week in the QLD Cup, per News Corp.
