The Knights have buried the critics' theory that they are a one-man team over the past three weeks. Since Kalyn Ponga injured his foot last month, the Knights have won three games on the trot to get themselves right back into finals contention. Ironically, the club only won two of their opening seven games with Ponga in the team and many thought their hopes for 2024 were heading down the toilet when he suffered his injury. Youngster David Armstrong has proved a great fill-in for Ponga, scoring a try in the win over the Tigers and looking very sharp when given room to move. Ponga is world class, and if the Knights continue to go well without him, they will be ever better with him in the side when he returns and a great chance for another finals berth.
