Parramatta have been inconsistent and will need to be on top of their game against the visitors.
Apart from Slayer, Melbourne also has Tom Learoyd-Lahrs and Dayne Weston back.
Slater returns in place of Cameron Munster, while Weston and Learoyd-Lahrs slot on to the bench in place of the suspended Felise Kaufusi and Nelson Asofa-Solomona.
For the Eels, Semi Radradra and Ryan Morgan make up a new look wing combination for the Eels in place of Bureta Faraimo and John Folau.
It’s tough on Faraimo and Folau who have been in great try-scoring touch.
Isaac De Gois also replaces Pauli Pauli on the bench, as Parramatta seek a steadier hand at hooker.
