The recently re-signed Marvin Filipo is three weeks away from featuring for Newcastle, after suffering a forearm injury while playing in France.Filipo was sacked by the Knights a year ago, following an off-field altercation.

“I was going through a dark period, went through some stuff, come down to me having to leave the club. I wasn’t happy but I’m past that now and I’m looking forward to the season.”

Meanwhile Adam Cuthbertson has signed a four year deal with the Leeds Rhinos.
