NRLW Round 4 - Knights V Titians - Sunday 13 August 1:50pm - McDonald Jones Stadium

The second placed Knights come up against the competition leaders the Titians at home.
 
Johnston on report for the tackle that got her binned. Didn’t look that bad to me but I’ve given up on even trying to understand or guess how the MRC will view things. Felila Kia is the readymade replacement if she’s ruled out.
 
Accepted the charge so she’ll miss this game.

Could move Karpani or Albert-Jones to second-row with Tinao coming back in, but Kia has been the replacement player for the past 2 weeks and is the closest to a direct replacement for Johnston - explosive runner, aggressive in defence, loves an offload. Not sure any would be ready to play the whole game so probably need 2 options in the team either way.

Hannah and Georgia will both be so much better for the run last week...if they can play with the effort, enthusiasm and pace they showed against Parramatta, they should be a good chance to knock the Titans off.

Every one of our younger brigade are developing well and the seasoned players are stepping up into their roles - I know it's a long way to go but I think we have it in us to make back to back grand finals, if we have any sort of luck with injuries.🤞

Albert-Jones - says she didn't realise the tackle was that bad till she saw the replay.
Says Griffiths asked her if she can play second row, so it sounds like she'll do some second row this week, but says shes keen to play lock as well if Hannah needs a rest.
 
Titans are having a dig, but apart from giving up 1 soft try, we have had their measure all game.
We need to come out just as strong in the second half because they don't look like they'll give up trying.
 
Far from perfect but clearly the better side so far.

Rarely comment on refs but reckon Knights will be feeling hard done by so far. Titans getting away with murder in the ruck and a couple of other dodgy calls.
 
Kia 7 runs for 101 metres and some big hits in the first half - caitlan might not get her spot back.
