Edrick Lee believes he can capitalise on the NRL’s latest rule changes.
After breaking his arm against the Broncos in round 15 last season, the towering winger will be searching for the high ball against the Warriors on Saturday.
A new rule enforced for the 2020 season makes it illegal to tackle an attacking player in mid-air as they jump to field a kick.
“Hopefully it works in our favour.” Lee said.
However, he’ll have a tough Warriors opposition to contend thanks to the likes of last years leading try-scorer Ken Maumalo.
Reporter Adam Murray will have the latest on the Newcastle Knights ahead of their season opener tonight at 6pm.
