Recapping the score now
Newcastle 24 (Roberts 2, Uate, Randell tries, Roberts 3, Gidley goals)
def
Wests Tigers 18 (Nofoaluma, Richards, Tedesco tries, Richards 3 goals)
Both sides missed opportunities to score throughout the game, the Knights bombed at least 4 tries while the Tigers cost themselves on a couple of occasions. It won’t please either coach, but the Knights will have the happier trip home

It won’t go down as a classic second half, but Danny Buderus gets his first win as coach of the Knights as his charges snap a three match losing streak.
The Tigers were brave in defence, but didn’t really offer anything in attack – though to be honest they were always up against it as they finished the match with 15 players.

76′ Well that just sums up the second half there was about 4 knock ons by both the Tigers and Knights and Scott drops it as he tries to score a try
He was short anyway. Tigers to work it off there home line – interesting stat the Tigers haven;t scored a second half try in there last 5 outings at Campbelltown no wonder the fans are screaming for a try!

72′ heart in mouth moment for Tigers fan there – Tedesco stretches out to get the ball in a very awkward position but he’s ok. Farah drops the ball, very late call but probably the right one. Knights ball 30 out

A sweeping attacking raid from the Tigers comes to nought as the ball goes behind Richards into touch. Nice defensive work from Uate who came in off the wing to force the error

Smith held up in goal – that was clear but they want to go back and check the kick where Tedesco couldn’t hold on the ball
Seriously Smith wasn’t even claiming a try and we’ve gone back 2 plays effectively

Looks like he’s going to be held up as well
If he is it’s the double – both brothers missing opportunities
But penalty to the Knights – Lovett ruled to be not square at marker, but then he was the main man who stopped the try
Knights will take the two this time

It doesn’t get any easier for either side. The Tigers will take on the Sharks next weekend while the Knights will face the Storm. There’s still plenty of rugby league to come tonight with the Panthers hosting the Warriors shortly and the Roosters taking on the Eels.
