Knights announce two new signings for 2026 NRL season
Newcastle recruitment manager Peter O'Sullivan has hailed the 'exceptional utility value' of former Wests Tigers player Asu Kepaoa, one of two signings the Knights announced on Thursday. Kepaoa, who has played 42 NRL games since debuting at the Tigers in 2020, will join Newcastle for the next two seasons after a near two-year stint at Penrith. The 25-year-old outside back, who could also offer depth in the forwards, is yet to play NRL at the Panthers but has made 27 appearances for their NSW Cup side, scoring 28 tries. This season alone, he has netted 18 tries in 14 games and is the reserve-grade competition's joint leading try-scorer. The Auckland product, nicknamed 'AJ', weighs 100 kilograms and stands 185-centimetres tall. Knights fans might remember him for the tackle he was involved in that knocked skipper Kalyn Ponga out in a clash with the Tigers early in the 2023 season. Ponga, then attempting to switch from fullback to five-eighth, went to tackle Kepaoa little more than a minute into the round-two match at Leichhardt Oval but was knocked unconscious following a heavy collision. The hit ruled him out for several weeks, and ultimately forced him into making a trip to Canada to seek medical advice following a spate of head knocks. "AJ has always been a player with great promise and ability," O'Sullivan said. "He gives us exceptional utility value with the ability to play wing, centre and back row at NRL level. "AJ is a big body with a strong play-two carry that will help get your sets rolling. Combined with a proven track record of try-scoring, we believe he has a lot of upsides. "We are excited to see what AJ can do here at the Knights." Kepaoa will be added to Newcastle's top-30 roster, joining the likes of James Schiller, Fletcher Hunt and uncapped Taj Annan in vying for a first-grade spot behind preferred starting wingers Dom Young and Greg Marzhew, and centres Bradman Best and Dane Gagai. The Knights also confirmed the signing of Eels playmaker Matthew Hunter, who will join the club for the next three seasons. Originally from Townsville, Hunter has played nine NSW Cup games for Parramatta this year, scoring five tries, setting up five more and making just as many line-breaks. The 20-year-old, whose nine reserve-grade games have been at five-eighth, will be on a development contract in 2026 before rising to the top-30 roster for the following two years. "Matt is a talented half or five-eighth, who I believe could also play fullback," O'Sullivan said. "He has jumped out of the ground in NSW Cup this year, playing in red hot form, scoring tries and creating try assists on a frequent basis. "With a great feel and instinct for the game, and given time to develop his body, we strongly believe he will be an NRL player of the future. "Matt is a great young man, from a very supportive family and we look forward to watching him prosper here at the Newcastle Knights." The signing announcements come after the Knights confirmed the retention of veteran centre Gagai, and the return of Raiders prop Pasami Saulo, this week. Newcastle's roster is going through an overhaul under O'Sullivan. He signed Eels half Dylan Brown earlier this year, has let go of Jayden Brailey and Kai Pearce-Paul, and is set to move on the likes of Jackson Hastings, Adam Elliott and Jack Hetherington at season's end. Tyson Frizell's future remains up in the air.
