Sharks Coach Shane Flanagan has named his final side to take to Southern Cross Group Stadium against the Knights this afternoon.
Picking up a groin strain in the side's Round 19 win over the Roosters on Monday, James Maloney will not play against the Knights, with Nu Brown set to fill in at five-eighth in his absence.
Maloney - having scored 20 points aginst the Knights when the sides last met in Round 10 - won't take to the field this afternoon, with the coaching and physical performance staff at the Club erring on the side of caution with the fitness of the star pivot.
In other team news, Matt Prior will start the match in jersey 16, while Sam Tagataese reverts to the interchange bench.
