Following a bye round last week, the side is raring to go and determined to claim their first victory of the season at Viking Park in the capital.

Continuity and consistency will be on the Force’s side on Sunday with a relatively unchanged squad. Flanker Anneka Stephens has recovered from an injury sustained in Round 3 to make her fourth consecutive start of the campaign.

Shiane Kani makes her first start of the season, with the 18-year-old named at loose-head prop alongside Hera-Barb Malcolm Heke (2) and Sera Ah-Sam (3) in the front row.

Lock Mahalia Ellis returns to the starting line-up after missing out on the Round 3 clash against Fijiana Drua, as Libya Teepa moves to the bench.

Darryl Wickliffe and Brooke Mason are set to make their first appearances of the season, with the front rowers named on the bench.
