NRL Squad Update: Brailey, Mapapalangi withdrawn

nib Newcastle Knights NRL Head Coach Adam O'Brien has reduced his squad for our Old Boys Day clash with the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks at McDonald Jones Stadium tomorrow afternoon.

In two changes, Jayden Brailey and Krystian Mapapalangi come out of the squad.

Brailey is out with a heel injury while Mapapalangi has withdrawn to be eligible for the Jersey Flegg Cup Semi-Final today.

Chris Randall and Enari Tuala come into the run-on side while Simi Sasagi moves onto the interchange bench.

Jirah Momoisea and Hymel Hunt remain on the extended bench.

Kids will also be allowed on field after full-time of the NRL fixture.
