Newcastle halfback Tyrone Roberts has been cleared of major injury, paving the way for a mouth watering battle with Roosters counterpart Mitchell Pearce this Saturday.

Roberts suffered a knee injury in the Knights' upset win over reigning premiers Melbourne Storm last weekend.

Akuila Uate and Kevin Naiqama are expected to feature for the Knights against Sonny Bill Williams’ Sydney Roosters at 9.45pm this Saturday while the South Sydney Rabbitohs will meet the Manly Sea Eagles this Friday at 9.45pm.
