Newcastle Knights captain Kalyn Ponga says the team knows what it needs to do ahead of Sunday’s match against the Wests Tigers. Multiple outlets report that Ponga is preparing the Knights for the showdown with a focus on their performance requirements for the game. The preview centres on the return of Adam Doueihi to the Tigers’ side, after his absence from earlier fixtures. Doueihi’s comeback is framed as a key development for Wests, while the Knights’ response is presented through Ponga’s leadership and match preparation. With Ponga in charge of the Knights’ messaging heading into the contest, the articles indicate the Knights are approaching the game with clear expectations for how they will handle the Tigers. The coverage is largely focused on the pre-match context, particularly the significance of Doueihi’s return and Ponga’s assessment of what Newcastle must do to be competitive in the round’s fixture.
