Nottingham’s team to face league-leaders Newcastle Falcons at The Bay on Friday night (7:45pm KO) has been confirmed.
Head Coach Neil Fowkes makes five changes to the team that lost to Doncaster Knights last time out.
On the squad, Fowkes said: “We’ve got a few injuries but we’ll never use that as an excuse. On the back of that there are changes to the squad that faces Falcons. Injuries are injuries and that’s the sport we’re in, that’s rugby union and that’s why we back our whole squad.
“Being able to call in the quality of Will Simonds, Karl Garside and Jordan Coughlan, they’re three quality lads and were very happy with how our relationships are running with those clubs and we’re thankful to them. It’s nice to have them available for a big Friday night at The Bay.”
