Newcastle Knights have been dealt a major blow as several key players are set for extended spells on the sidelines. Rising star Dylan Lucas has been ruled out after suffering a serious injury, while captain Kalyn Ponga faces a lengthy recovery following a foot injury sustained in recent training sessions. The club confirmed that Ponga’s rehabilitation process is underway, but no specific timeline has been set for his return.
In another worrying development, young talent Fletcher Sharpe has been diagnosed with a kidney condition, which will keep him out indefinitely as he undergoes medical treatment and monitoring. The club and medical staff are said to be offering full support to Sharpe and his family during this challenging time.
The Knights’ depth will be tested further, with other unnamed players also dealing with ongoing injuries that may rule them out for several weeks. Head coach Adam O’Brien expressed his disappointment but emphasized his faith in the squad’s resilience, saying the team’s focus remains on unity and recovery.
With several crucial fixtures ahead, the Knights face a tough period — but the club insists their determination and spirit remain unbroken as they battle through this wave of injuries.
