[edit]Ramien made his Knights debut in round 1 of the season in Newcastle's 14-8 victory over his former side the Sharks.[11] Throughout the season, there was speculation that he was unhappy playing for the Knights due to a lack of ball passed his way at right centre, the Knights favouring their left edge more.[12] After playing in 17 games and scoring 2 tries, Ramien was left out of the team for their round 20 game following four straight losses for the Knights. It was reported that during the week coach Nathan Brown approached him at training and told him if he was unhappy at the club and wanted to seek an immediate release then Newcastle head of football Brian Canavan could make that happen.[13] The day after, Ramien was granted permission negotiate with other clubs and leave the Knights immediately, however due to it being past the NRL's June 30 mid-season transfer deadline, he would not be allowed to play for another club until the 2020 season.[14]
