Twins Daniel and Jacob have been playing well for the Knights this season and contributed to their making the play-offs.

While Daniel has been named in the starting line-up, he still has to go through a few tests before he is allowed to play.

He injured his knee and missed a few of their games heading to play-offs.

Knights coach Adam O’Brien said he was confident Saifiti would play if he got through the final training session.

The Eels on the other hand will surely miss top tryscorer Sivo who was injured last month and has been ruled out for today’s game.
