THE Knights stormed home to a shock victory over the Sharks last night with a last ditch kick from Jarrod Mullen finding Dane Gagai for a miracle match winning try.

With the clock counting down and the Sharks seemingly on their way to a third straight victory with a 14-12 lead, the Knights came from the clouds to steal the match with Gagai pulling the kick from the air and slamming the ball down with just two minutes left in the match.
With their backs to the wall for much of the night, Newcastle refused to let the Sharks kill them off and the thrilling finale has kept their finals hopes well and truly alive as the Sharks bombed all hope of a top four finish.
The Knights came out of the sheds full of running and Chris Houston slid through two Sharks defenders and attempted to find Neville Costigan with a reach around off-load.
The pass missed the mark but the Sharks were soon under pressure again when Paul Gallen was ruled to have dropped the ball.
Tempers overflowed again with some more push and shove after Kade Snowden went inches from scoring against his former club.
Denied by the video referee, the Knights were made to pay for a mistake when Wade Graham pounced on a Mullen error to score under the posts.
Deep on the attack, Carney kicked the ball back in-field and Mullen made a mess of it, allowing Graham to swoop and plant the loose ball and make it 12-8.
The lead was quickly erased with a Sharks error gifting the Tyrone Roberts the easiest of tries.
Neville Costigan forced the mistake with a big hit on Stapleton sending the ball into Snowden's hands, who in turn found Roberts.
