Newcastle Knights back-rower Beau Scott released to Parramatta Eels on ‘compassionate grounds’
It should be a real high-quality, absorbing encounter.
Souths’ injury problems continue, with Adam Reynolds’s thumb complaint meaning John Sutton returns to five-eighth.
Chris Grevsmuhl comes back into the starting back-row and Nathan Brown comes on to the bench.
The Storm are unchanged after their big win over the Eels. Billy Slater returned to form in fantastic fashion at Pirtek Stadium and is primed for another big performance.
