KNIGHTS ROBBIE ROCHOW OUT FOR FOUR MONTHS

They may have given the Storm a fright yesterday, but Newcastle’s performance at Hunter Stadium has also come at a cost.
Robbie Rochow is out for four months after tearing his pectoral muscle.
He’ll have surgery tomorrow, just a few games after his return from a broken arm.
Sione Mata’utia is facing four weeks on the sideline with a broken jaw.
He was one of three players charged by the match review panel, although he’s likely to escape a ban by taking the early guilty plea for a careless high tackle.
Daniel Saifiti is facing at least one game on the sideline for a shoulder charge, while Jake Mamo would also miss a match with an early guilty plea for his hit on Tohu Harris.
