nib Newcastle Knights NRLW Head Coach, Casey Bromilow, has reduced his squad to 19 ahead of Sunday's clash with the St George Illawarra Dragons in Round 4.
There has been some changes to the squad with Georgia Page (concussion) and Ngatokotoru Arakua (suspension) ruled out for the game.
Page suffered a head knock during Round 3 and, due to HIA protocols, wasn't available for Sunday's game while Arakua was charged with a one-game suspension for a dangerous throw.
In exciting news, local product, Kyra Simon, and Kiwi Fern, Kararaina Wira-Kohu, will debut for the red and blue off the bench.
Simon has come through the Tarsha Gale Cup system and represented the Indigenous All Stars earlier in the year while Wira-Kohu brings Test and Maori All Stars experience to the forward pack.
Tahlulah Tillett also returns to halfback partnering Kirra Dibb in the halves while Charntay Poko moves to 13.
Phoebe Desmond will line-up in the front-row while Maitua Feterika moves to the second-row.
Romy Teitzel will Captain the side in the first double-header for the Club in front of the Knights supporters at McDonald Jones Stadium.
The team will be confirmed one hour from kick-off.
