Brisbane captain Adam Reynolds returns at halfback alongside new super-sub Ezra Mam to take on Penrith in the grand final qualifier.
Both return from five-week lay-offs to a side unbeaten since the pair suffered hamstring injuries in round 23 against Melbourne.
Reynolds said he was now "100 per cent" fit and ready to perform at No.7 after a minor training setback three weeks ago.
In his absence, fullback Reece Walsh has been in electric form after forging a slick combination with Ben Hunt at half.
Hunt will shift to five-eighth against the Panthers at Suncorp Stadium but Reynolds refuted suggestions dynamo fullback Walsh would be impeded from showcasing his best.
