Kalyn Ponga might look like "the coolest bloke in the world" but Jackson Hastings insists there is a serious side to his Newcastle teammate as the Queenslander makes the move to five-eighth in 2023.
Ponga was absent from Friday's underwhelming trial loss against Cronulla, with Hastings emerging unscathed in his first game back since breaking his right leg, one of the few positives for the Knights.
The Great Britain international was partnered with Tyson Gamble on Friday but he and Ponga are expected to be the club's halves duo come round one.
