Brett Davey has announced a new look team ahead of tomorrow's British and Irish Cup match against Nottingham.

The Knights have named five Sheffield Tigers players on loan at the club for the Cup competition and handed another two players their full debut for the Castle Park based outfit.

The DOR is hoping his team can impress and is confident they have the ability to put in a fighting performance against a strong Nottingham side:

"The lads are looking forward to the game and I am really excited at the prospect of a Cup run, unfortunately we don't have the squad depth we would like so we are trying new things.

"The players who come in from the Tigers will hopefully impress and it is a very open window for them - I have placed my confidence in them and hopefully we will play with a strong sense of ambition."
