$2.8m in hybrid halves: Breaking down Newcastle’s Ponga-Brown shake-up
@Source: theage.com.au
Sitting in the commentary box in Newcastle on Thursday night, Andrew Johns made a noise no man should make on a family-friendly broadcast.
“There’s only a couple of players in the world [who] could do this,” Johns said as he watched Kalyn Ponga send Dane Gagai over against the Dolphins.
Ponga lined up for what had been a chest pass from Jack Cogger, skipped a body-length past Jake Averillo while the ball was in transit, scooped it up from around his knees in the same motion and pushed it on for his veteran centre to stroll over.
Rugby league, not just Joey, needed a breather as the highlights rolled.
