Knights' forward crisis deepens: Hola out with broken arm, NRL season grind begins
Peta Hola's broken arm surgery leaves Newcastle with another top-30 forward hole and no clear return date as injury woes pile up early in the NRL campaign.
Newcastle Knights forward Peta Hola is set to miss extended time after undergoing surgery for a broken arm, the latest blow to a forward pack already stretched thin early in the NRL season. Hola, a key piece in the Knights’ top-30 roster, suffered the injury during the opening rounds, forcing the club into damage-control mode. Club doctors confirmed the break required surgical intervention, but the exact return timeline remains undetermined—a critical uncertainty as the 17-game grind of the NRL season begins to bite.
