ROBBIE ROCHOW
KNIGHTS star Robbie Rochow will be hoping to continue his unbeaten run when Newcastle host NRL competition leaders Canterbury-Bankstown this Saturday night.
The front-rower made his debut off the bench in the Knights’ upset 32-6 win over defending premiers Manly at Hunter Stadium three weeks ago.
The Maitland junior backed that up with a stunning 24-19 win over the Warriors in New Zealand in his second match after the Knights trailed 18-0.
Rochow completed his winning hat-trick when the Knights thumped the Raiders 36-6 at Canberra Stadium last Sunday and he scored his first try in the NRL.
Rochow is studying civil engineering at the University of Newcastle and will take up a work experience placement with Knights sponsor WesTrac today.
