Social: Fun in the Sun, Brits try Vegemite

See what the nib Newcastle Knights players have been getting up to in their down time.

We've been keeping across the social media accounts of our troops and this is what they've been up to.

FUN IN THE SUN

With the Summer heat finally arriving after some rubbish weather over the Christmas break, the boys took the opportunity to bang in some time on Newcastle's beautiful coastline.

CHEF BRAILEY

Meanwhile, Jayden Brailey's been back on the tools, cooking up a storm on his new Weber barbecue.

There's even a shoutout to an ex-Knight!

TRAINING'S TOUGH

It looks like Jacob Saifiti's pulled up a little sore from a mid-week training session, with Connor Watson sharing his pain on the Instagram Story.

CHESS BATTLE

Speaking of J-Saf, the big man delivered this hilarious sledge to Hymel Hunt and extended train-on squad member Chris Veaila during a heated game of chess.

HODGSON REJECTS AUSSIE CLASSIC

Still only a few weeks into his move from Castleford, British recruit Bailey Hodgson has delivered his verdict on classic Australian spread Vegemite.

Spoiler Alert: It wasn't good.

A BARNETT BIRTHDAY

It's been a big week in the Barnett household, with Mitch's dog Bailey turning three this week.

We certainly hope he got a bone or two to celebrate!

AND FINALLY...

We're not 100% sure what's going on here, but we're all for this Cold Rock bonding between Kalyn Ponga and Bradman Best.
