The Canberra Raiders have named their squad for Friday night’s match against the Manly Sea Eagles at Suncorp Stadium.

Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad has been named to make his return for the Green Machine, with the New Zealand International set to play his first match since injuring his neck against the Panthers in round five.

Nicoll-Klokstad has been named on the interchange bench, with Coach Ricky Stuart electing to start the match with Jordan Rapana who has performed well at fullback for the past few weeks.

Sebastian Kris comes back into the team this week for Jarrod Croker, who has been ruled out with an ongoing knee injury.

Matt Frawley also gets an opportunity to come back into the NRL side on the bench, with Tom Starling ruled out for the next 4-6 weeks with a fractured jaw.

Corey Harawira-Naera has accepted the early guilty plea at the NRL judiciary and will miss three matches.
