nib Newcastle Knights Head Coach Adam O'Brien has named his 21-man squad to take on the Wests Tigers this Friday at Suncorp Stadium.
The match will kickstart Magic Round at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium, where the Knights enjoyed a 22-10 win over the Bulldogs in the inaugural event in 2019.
Hymel Hunt returns to the team in the reserves, while Starford To'a is set to retain his place on the wing.
Lachlan Fitzgibbon returns to the starting side following a successful return to the NRL last week.
The remainder of the squad is unchanged from last week's win over the Raiders.
