Former Melbourne Storm star Suliasi Vunivalu could make his Super Rugby debut for the Queensland Reds tomorrow after being named on the bench for their clash against the Rebels.

Vunivalu was stood down from last week's game against the Waratahs after being charged with common assault following an altercation with a security guard last month.

The 25-year-old is one of four changes to Brad Thorn's side after serving a one-match suspension served by the Queensland Rugby Union.

Vunivalu has been named on the bench with Moses Sorovi while Filipo Daugunu will start on the wing.

Marika Koroibete and Frank Lomani will feature for the Rebels.

The Reds will take on the Rebels at 8.45pm tomorrow and the Waratahs will face the Brumbies at 8.45pm Saturday.
