Jeremy Marshall-King is also a late scratching for the Dolphins' side, with a laceration on the hooker's leg still healing.
Marshall-King suffered the gash against Penrith last week.
The wound was reportedly so deep that it required 20 stitches to close.
Kurt Donoghue will start in Marshall-King's place, with Ray Stone joining the bench.
