nib Newcastle Knights Head Coach Justin Holbrook has named his 22-man squad for Sunday afternoon's ANZAC Round clash against the Penrith Panthers at McDonald Jones Stadium.
James Schiller has been named to make his first appearance of the year on the wing, replacing Greg Marzhew.
Marzhew will be subject to the NRL's mandatory 11-day concussion stand down after coming from the field in last weekend's clash with the Roosters.
Elijah Salesa-Leaumoana and Asu Kepaoa have also been included on the six-man bench, while Lachlan Crouch and Wilson De Courcey have been added to the reserves list.
See the squad below:
