Show Preview
The Newcastle Knights host the Melbourne Storm in Round 3 action at McDonald Jones Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores from 6.15pm AEDT.
Storm duo Cameron Munster and Jahrome Hughes will miss Sunday’s clash with Newcastle, meaning an inexperienced halves combo of Jonah Pezet and Tyrone Wishart. Christian Welch is also out after failing a HIA, with Tepai Moeroa coming in.
Newcastle half Jackson Hastings has been dropped with Jack Cogger coming in. Greg Marzhew (wrist) set to miss up to a month, although Enari Tuala returns from injury to take his place. Jayden Brailey makes his first appearance since last April off the bench.
The Knights have lost their first two matches and the Storm are unbeaten but without two of their most influential players. Storm by 2
