Tuesday 20 Mar 2007 13:50
by Matthew O'Neill
Newcastle captain Andrew Johns hasn't been named for Friday's clash against the Dragons after being injured in the Knights controversial 25-24 victory on Sunday afternoon against the Bulldogs.
Johns was stretchered off the field in the 4th minute resulting in Sonny Bill Williams being sent off. Johns said last night that he was keen to play this weekend, but Knights coach Brian Smith has opted against naming him at this present moment. It doesn't mean that Johns won't play and Smith will be keeping a close eye on his progress between now and Friday night.
Jarrod Mullen has been moved to halfback with Daniel Abraham the new five-eighth. Steve Simpson will takeover the captaincy in the absence of Johns.
