The Canberra Raiders have named their squad for their trial match against the Newcastle Knights this weekend.
Raiders Coach Ricky Stuart will use the trial to give the NRL squad a chance to perform against the Knights in a bid to finalise his 17 for the clubs round one clash against the Panthers.
Blake Austin is missing from the squad to take on the Knights, as he recovers from off-season shoulder surgery. Shaun Fensom has also been ruled out as a precaution following a broken arm in the pre-season. Both players are expected to be available for round one.
NYC Player Jack Williams replaces Shaun Fensom in the trial match squad.
The Raiders will be live streaming the match on the clubs website.
