Knights coach Adam O'Brien believes his team is getting closer to their ultimate goal ("Finals exit stings Knights", Newcastle Herald 16/9), after their loss in the NRL playoffs last Saturday. I believe they are treading water.
If you ask me, they need to make the difficult decision and offload Kalyn Ponga and free up his $1.4 million/season money and enter the market for some other quality players, particularly in the half and five-eighth positions.
