Newcastle Knights

Bulldogs take aim at former teammate

Tough year: Trent Hodkinson.

Canterbury players have wasted no time throwing shade at former teammate Trent Hodkinson, with prop Sam Kasiano saying he can't wait to make a beeline for the Newcastle halfback.

Rochow happy to play middle man

Front of the pack: Robbie Rochow.

Robbie Rochow is prepared for life in the middle. Almost the entirety of his 73 NRL games have been played on the edge. However, Rochow found a new home, pushed into the Knights' front row, in the heart-breaking 29-25 loss to Canberra.
