Local junior Josh King has earned a one-year contract extension at the Knights, keeping him in red and blue until at least 2018.
Despite the new deal, the 21-year-old has no plans to give up his electrical apprenticeship.
“I’m still working full time and training, it’s one of my passions so I’ll keep working until I can complete that.”
Dane Gagai will play his 100th game for Newcastle against Manly on Sunday.
He’ll return to the centres, happy to let Jake Mamo take over at fullback.
“I’m definitely looking forward to getting a bit wider. Jake Mamo has come a long way since playing on the wing.”
