Summary of NRL Round 10 Preview
The Newcastle Knights are looking to build on their recent victory against Souths, which ended a five-game losing streak.
They face consecutive home games against the Titans and Eels, aiming to improve their record at McDonald Jones Stadium, where they have won just one of three matches this season.
Coach Adam O'Brien is hopeful for a strong performance on Friday night, especially after the team found their rhythm during Magic Round.
Young star Fletcher Sharpe shone in the last match, scoring a hat-trick at Suncorp Stadium, and will be a key player as he competes against the Titans' speedsters Alofiana Khan-Pereira, AJ Brimson, and Brian Kelly.
The Titans, on the other hand, are struggling, having lost five consecutive games and conceding a staggering 192 points during this stretch.
Despite this, the Titans previously defeated the Knights in Round 3 and will strive for a similar outcome.
With their confidence boosted, players like Kalyn Ponga, Greg Marzhew, Bradman Best, and Sharpe are set to challenge the Titans' shaky defense, which needs to improve significantly if they wish to avoid another loss.
