NRL: Newcastle Knights are feilding their 8th halves pairing for the year. The NRL 360 panel discuss how this will impact them long-term.
A lack of continuity in the halves has been viewed as a key driver of the Knights’ struggles this season, with some labelling it a game of selection “ musical chairs .”
Watch every game of every round this NRL Telstra Premiership Season LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?Given the halves are such a crucial position both offensively and defensively in rugby league, fellow panellist Gorden Tallis explained the impact of Newcastle constantly chopping and changing their five-eighth and halfback.“Sometimes it can take a while to get that cohesion. You’ve got to work. And just understand when you’re tired, fatigued, especially defensively.
While Gamble has been out, Jack Cogger, signed from the Penrith Panthers, where he played a crucial role in the club’s third consecutive premiership win in 2023, has been named alongside Hastings.“With Cogger, and I don’t want to be too harsh, it’s one of these situations where you get a player like him at a club like Penrith or even Melbourne, with a Munster or a Cleary next to you. Obviously it’s a lot easier with those guys inside you,” he said.
