Titans bring in Godfrey ahead of derby trip to Knights
South African back Godfrey, 23, arrived at Clifton Lane last Monday primed for action and goes straight into the squad to face the seventh-placed Knights, who trail their county rivals only on points difference.
Godfrey said: "Andre Bester (head coach) phoned me every day to make it happen and it's a very good move for me.

"I can play in a few positions – I try to break the line if I'm playing centre, score tries if I'm playing full-back or control things if I'm playing fly-half. I like running the ball, love taking contact and defence is one of my favourite aspects."
Another back, Simeon Jones, will be joining the Titans on Monday.
Rotherham captain Joe Bedford said of today's derby: "They're always tough games and it will be a good test of what we're putting together here."
