Newcastle have some of the best attacking talent in the NRL - million dollar man Kalyn Ponga, powerhouse centre Bradman Best, forward dynamo Tyson Frizell, Blues prop Daniel Saifiti and speedy centre Dane Gagai for starters. That's why it's so mystifying that the Knights' attack has spluttered so badly in recent weeks.The Knights are averaging less than 10 points a game this season and their attack was pitiful in last Sunday's 39-2 loss to the Eels. In perfect conditions before a big crowd at home, they rarely challenged the Eels defence and were way off the pace.And their defence? That's another story - but after the game even some Eels players admitted they were surprised at how easily they racked up the points after playing so poorly the previous week against the Tigers.
