Western Suburbs Magpies Canterbury Cup Coach Brett Hodgson has named a strong squad for Sunday's Round 14 clash against the Newcastle Knights at Campbelltown Sports Stadium.

Kickoff for the match is at 1:10pm AEST with live TV coverage via 9GEM as Western Suburbs look to bounce back from last week's narrow loss to Mounties.

Hodgson will welcome back a number of key players for Sunday's game, with Josh Reynolds set to make his return in the number six jersey following a knee injury sustained in the NRL side's win over the Gold Coast Titans in Round 7.

He will partner young gun and 2019 Development Player Jock Madden in the halves, who too returns from injury, with Tyson Gamble shifting to the centres.

Madden takes the place of captain Kauri Aupouri, who is out with a knee injury.

In a further boost for the side, 2019 Development Player Tommy Talau also returns from injury to be named alongside Gamble in the centres, with the talented outside back making his Canterbury Cup debut along with Madden.

The trio join a number of NRL squad members in the side for Sunday's game with Kane Bradley, Oliver Clark, Sam McIntyre, Robbie Rochow and Alex Seyfarth all named for the Magpies as they look to return to the winners' circle.

Congrats madden, hopefully this is on 9gem

I'm just wondering if you read the posts because..

Kickoff for the match is at 1:10pm AEST **with live TV coverage via 9GEM** as Western Suburbs look to bounce back from last week’s narrow loss to Mounties.

Good to see Madden named. Look forward to watching him play.

 

[Newtown]

Josh Reynolds is back?

Named in the 6 Jersey..

 

[Jock Koss]

@Newtown he’s back, baby!

That's a dangerous halves combo for State Cup. If we don't win this there's something seriously wrong.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Gamble is on his way out.

 

[BalmainJnr]

Glad this is on GEM, will be good to see Madden run around.

Ill be shocked if Josh Reynolds sets up his centre Gamble.

Love Josh Reynolds but the guy wont give an inch to a competitor.

Good luck to young madden, just back from injury, hope he is like seyfarth, who was very ordinary at the start of the year in jersey flegg, but played a lot better when moved up to CC. Hope hodgo gets a couple of guys around him in defence, he was run over the top off against Cronulla in his last game for flegg, but doesn't seem to lack confidence this kid, which is good, excited to see how he goes at this level.

Pretty strong side today Gamble, Rochow, McIntyre and Seyfarth on the bench. I would have thought a true front rower may have been handy on the bench given the conditions.

Also can't understand how O'Toole keeps getting picked over Maarbani.

Where is Dylan Smith?

 

[TheDaBoss]

Gonna be unable to watch the game, hoepfully we win
