Reports have emerged that apparently Newcastle Knights and rugby league superstar Kalyn Ponga could be looking at a code switch.

Ponga, with two-years left on his contract at the Knights could depart the club at season’s end to pursue a dream of representing the All Blacks, or even possibly leaving for Europe or Japan to play rugby union.
