THE search for stability in Newcastle's halves intensifies tonight when Ben Rogers and Beau Henry are expected to get time at five-eighth against Penrith in Port Macquarie. Jarrod Mullen is the obvious halfback, but the Knights have lacked stability in the halves in recent seasons. Henry was signed from St George Illawarra's under 20s after first grade possibilities seemed remote with Jamie Soward at five-eighth and Ben Hornby halfback. Knights coach Rick Stone wants to use the club's top player, Kurt Gidley, at fullback, a plan that would be easier to execute if either Rogers or Henry makes the five-eighth spot his own.
