Play was stopped for several minutes as the second-row received medical attention.<\/p>\n
He appeared to be given oxygen and was taken off the pitch on the medicab, before being taken to hospital.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was bent in a way that it should not have been bent. This is terrible,\u201d Dan Ginnane said on Fox League.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is almost inconsolable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lucas could be ruled out for the remainder of the season, with the Knights also losing Dylan Brown to a possible ACL injury. <\/p>\n
The incident caused distress with teammate Bradman Best putting his hands on his head.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was obviously terrible to see,\u201d Newcastle teammate Fletcher Sharpe told Fox League at halftime.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou never want to see one of your own go down like that.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is also another injury blow for Knights, who were missing Kalyn Ponga for the clash against the Roosters.<\/p>\n
The fullback felt tightness in his quad but is expected to return next week.<\/p>\n
Despite the knock backs, Newcastle battled from behind to lead the Roosters 16-10.<\/p>\n
But they could not take full advantage as a second half comeback from the Roosters saw them regain the lead.<\/p>\n
Knights levelled up before a sucker-punch with seconds left as Daly Cherry-Evans kicked a field goal to win it for the Roosters 23-22.<\/p>\n
