Dropping out of the squad in the game-day update is Joey Walsh.
Paul Bryan, Brandon Wakeham and Josh Feledy are all in line to play their first NRL match for Manly.
Bryan is a 23-year-old prop who made his NRL debut for the Knights in last year's Round 12 win over the Panthers in Bathurst. He joined the Sea Eagles late last year and scored a try in his first game for the Club in the NSW Cup victory over the Raiders last Saturday.
Now in his third year at Manly, Wakeham has 40 NRL games to his name after playing four seasons with Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs (2019-22) and one season with the Wests Tigers (2023).
Feledy is a 21-year-old local junior who made his NRL debut at 4 Pines Park playing for Wests Tigers in Round 27, 2023. A powerful centre, he made a further two appearances for the Tigers before joining the Sea Eagles ahead of the 2026 season.
The Sea Eagles and Knights are playing for the Malcolm Reilly Challenge Trophy.
