Nib Newcastle Knights NRLW Head Coach Ronald Griffiths has made a strategic decision ahead of their Round 9 clash against the Wests Tigers by reducing his squad to 19 players.
This move indicates a focus on a smaller, more agile group to take on their opponents.
The team will be facing off at Leichhardt Oval this Thursday night, a change from the originally planned venue of Campbelltown Stadium.
This change in location may provide a different atmosphere for the players and potentially impact their performance.
In an interesting substitution, Caitlin Moran has been chosen to replace Georgia Roche at five-eighth, a key position in the team's lineup.
This decision could indicate a shift in the team's tactical approach and style of play.
It will be interesting to see how this change in the halves affects the team's overall performance on the field.
Fans can find the full squad lineup for the upcoming match on the official Newcastle Knights website.
