MATT Moylan is likely to overcome some blurred vision to play against Newcastle - but gun playmaker Te Maire Martin’s return to the NRL might be deferred again by Penrith coach Anthony Griffin.

Panthers fans have been waiting to see Martin return from a shoulder injury and join fellow rookie Nathan Cleary in the halves for the run home to the finals.

A hitout against cellar-dwellers Newcastle on Sunday afternoon loomed as the ideal starting point.

But does Griffin tinker with Monday night’s winning halves combination of Cleary and Bryce Cartwright?

“Te Maire has been out a long time with a serious (shoulder) injury, he played a full game on Saturday (in reserve grade), but he was scratchy,’’ Griffin said.

“There wasn’t anything wrong with what they (Cleary and Cartwright) did tonight.

“Obviously it’s good to have people like Te Maire back. It gives us some options there.’’

As for Moylan, the No.1 was forced from the field on the hour mark after he copped an earlier accidental knock from Roosters centre Shaun Kenny-Dowall.

“He got a bad whack t the back of the head and was crook the rest of the game,’’ Griffin said.

“The doctor think he’ll be right for next week.’’

Moylan appeared fine afterwards in the sheds. Zak Hardaker can slot into fullback, as can Dallin Watene-Zelezniak.

In good news for Panthers fans, reliable prop Reagan Campbell-Gillard (elbow) could also return for the Knights.
