Brisbane<\/a>\u2019s season from hell has continued, with retiring captain Adam Reynolds<\/a> suffering a concussion in their 30-6 loss against Newcastle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The reigning premiers fell out of finals contention last weekend<\/a>, but still hoped to send Reynolds out on a high towards the back-end of the season.<\/p>\n

However, in a major blow on Saturday night, the champion halfback was floored by a rampaging Greg Marzhew that saw Reynolds stumble before being taken off.<\/p>\n

\u201cReynolds is in real trouble, that\u2019s a problem. I don\u2019t think we see Adam Reynolds again tonight,\u201d Dan Ginnane said on Fox League commentary.<\/p>\n

Reynolds was deemed to be showing category one symptoms, prematurely ending his night, with fellow veteran Ben Hunt<\/a> replacing him.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had trouble getting back to his feet, that\u2019s a heavy hit,\u201d Greg Alexander<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

To make matters worse, Deine Mariner was sin binned for a professional foul just moments after Reynolds was taken from the field for a HIA, before star forward Xavier Willison departed with an injury 10 minutes into the game.<\/p>\n

Kalyn Ponga<\/a>\u2019s return from injury sparked the Knights early at Suncorp Stadium, with the visitors taking an early 10-0 lead. <\/p>\n

Fletcher Sharpe scored a brilliant solo try, brushing past Reece Walsh in the process, before Dom Young continued his strong season on the wing.<\/p>\n

Not long after Mariner\u2019s stint in the bin finished, both teams were down to 12 men after a wild melee broke out that spilled over the sideline.<\/p>\n

Young was dragged into touch in a dominant tackle from Ezra Mam<\/a>, leading to a brief scuffle that was escalated by Jermaine McEwen, who sprinted in from a fair distance and forcefully dragged a Broncos player amid the chaos.<\/p>\n

\u201cMam and Young are going at it, that was a bit of WWE and now here\u2019s Jermaine McEwen – that had a bit of pepper on it,\u201d Ginnane said. <\/p>\n

\u201cMy goodness, the refs have got their hands full. What a bit of self-destruction.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alexander was stunned by the actions from the Knights back-rower.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought it had settled down … I understand sticking up for your teammates, but that was crazy stuff and he ran a long way to get involved,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

McEwen was rightfully binned for his part in the melee, before Broncos fullback Reece Walsh<\/a> was also given his marching orders for pulling Young\u2019s hair. <\/p>\n

Walsh tried to plead with referee Grant Atkins, but it fell on deaf ears. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know what he was thinking, he thought he\u2019d get away with something cheeky … it was a bit of a brain snap,\u201d Jared Waerea-Hargreaves<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

During the 12-on-12 period with the two players in the bin, Marzhew put the Knights further ahead on the scoreboard in what ended up a dominant win. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brisbane\u2019s season from hell has continued, with retiring captain Adam Reynolds suffering a concussion in their 30-6 loss…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":837838,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-837837","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/837837","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=837837"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/837837\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/837838"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=837837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=837837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=837837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
