Off-season recruit Beau Henry will partner Jarrod Mullen in the Knights’ halves when they take on Penrith this Sunday.
Adam MacDougall will miss the game following the death of his father, with Wes Naiqama to take his place in the centres.
Coach Rick Stone says he’s not fazed by Henry’s inexperience in first grade.
“He’s got some expectations on himself, like most good players do, he’s seems ready for it, there’s no need to shield him I don’t think.”
Beau believes he can establish a strong combination with Mullen.
“Had a goal to play first grade last year I didn’t get there, had a little setback, put myself down, but once I came to the Knights there was a good opportunity here.”
