1 March 2026

The Kiwis stand-off signed an immense 13 million dollar 10-year deal to shift from the Parramatta Eels during the off-season.

Knights coach Justin Holbrook says his new star half will have the freedom to play what's in front of him and manage the game alongside young gun Fletcher Sharpe.

The Knights tackle the Cowboys from 3.15pm in Las Vegas...with the Dragons up against the Bulldogs from 5.30pm.
