Wests Tigers NRLW squad has been trimmed to 19 players ahead of Thursday night's Round 9 match against the Knights now to be played at Leichhardt Oval.

Kezie Apps has been ruled out with a foot injury with Taylor Osborne elevated from the reserves to the second row.

Also dropping out of the extended squad is Tess Staines and Ebony Prior.

This match was to be played at Campbelltown Sports Stadium but has been moved to Leichhardt Oval.

The decision to relocate the match to Leichhardt Oval was made to prioritise the safety of patrons and players due to poor air quality in the Campbelltown area, resulting from recent back burning.
