Canterbury Bulldogs star Kieran Foran is expected to be fit to face Newcastle Knights after being cleared of a toe injury.

Foran missed the second half of the Bulldogs' 28-22 loss to St George Illawarra Dragons in the NRL on Saturday.

The playmaker underwent scans on his toe and was cleared of major damage, the Bulldogs said.

"He will train with the team this week and is expected to take his place in the side for the clash with the Newcastle Knights on Sunday," the team said.

The Bulldogs are enduring a miserable season, with just one win from their first 10 games of the NRL campaign.
