Hull KR will have to make changes in the pack again when they take on Wakefield in what could be a crunch clash in the race for the Stobart Super League play-off spots.
Rovers gave a debut to James Green in last weekend's defeat to Bradford but the prop has been suspended for Saturday's clash at MS3 Craven Park.
Scott Murrell, who recently announced that he would be leaving the club at the end of the season, is also not included in Craig Sandercock's 19-man squad.
But Rhys Lovegrove makes a return to the squad while Jason Netherton and Con Mika have been given recalls to offset the absentees.
In the backs, young winger Nick Johnson is included while Blake Green and Jake Webster remain sidelined.
Collis back
Wakefield coach Richard Agar makes just one change to the squad that claimed a memorable 33-32 win over St Helens last time out, with centre Dean Collis able to return.
His replacement for last weekend, Danny Cowling, retains his spot as well which means Isaac John, who did not make the match-day selection against the Saints in any case, misses out.
"Dean is obviously a class player for us so he will come straight back into the (match-day) 17," Agar told the Wildcats' official website.
"We will decide the make-up of the team as we go along and Danny Cowling will keep his place in the 19-man squad.
"We will pick the best team in terms of looking forward what the best 17 is to play this game but it is fair to say Dean will be back in following his week off for suspension."
Wakefield are on a run of four straight victories and now sit just one point adrift in the race for the all-important eight place in the table, which is currently occupied by Rovers.
Hull KR: Salter, Cox, Lovegrove, Horne, Netherton, O'Hara, Mika, Galea, Johnson, D Hodgson, J Hodgson, Paea, Sheriff, Hall, Dobson, Taylor, Latus, Griffin, Withers.
Wakefield: Mathers, Fox, Cowling, Cockayne, Wood, Lauitiiti, Ellis, Raleigh, Collis, Washbrook, Amor, Johnson, Kirmond, Mariano, T Smith, Trout, Wilkes, Sykes, L Smith.
