Grant has been listed on the extended bench but is expected to play, while Nelson Asofa-Solomona has earned a recall with Joe Chan dropping out.
Meanwhile, Sharks front-rower Tom Hazelton (shoulder) is sidelined but Siosifa Talakai returns on the bench and Oregon Kaufusi moves into the starting side.
Cronulla halfback Nicho Hynes is in red-hot form and if he can orchestrate a victory over the premiership favourites then his side will enter the top four.
