The penultimate regular season round of the NRL year will conclude with Newcastle taking on Gold Coast before the Roosters host Canberra.

What happens in the first match will determine the stakes of the other — the Knights can force a play-off for eighth spot against the Dolphins next week if they beat the Titans.

A Novocastrian victory would end the Raiders' season, as would a Green Machine loss to the highly fancied Tricolours.

Final teams: Knights vs Titans

Knights are 1-17 but we have some big changes for the Titans.

Keano Kini, their impressive young fullback, is out and he'll be replaced by debutant Jaylan de Groot. Phil Sami is out with Beau Fermor moving to the centres, Chris Randall shifting to second row and Isaac Liu staring at lock. Keenan Palasaia is the new man on the bench.

Welcome!

Hey everybody, happy Father's Day and welcome to NRL Sunday!

My name is Nick Campton and we've got a beauty of a double header here for you today - first up, the Knights play the Titans and it's a big one, because Newcastle can force a play-off for eighth spot next week with the Dolphins should they win.

If they don't, then the Raiders stay in the finals race and will have even more to play for when they face the Roosters in the second match of the day.

It's gonna be a big one so sit back, relax, stay hydrated and let's have some fun out there.
