AUCKLAND - Newcastle came from 18-0 down to upset the Warriors 24-19 in Saturday night's NRL game in Auckland.
The Knights' fourth win in five matches drew them level with the Warriors in ninth place on the ladder after showing more composure and intensity than the hosts, who appeared to relax after taking the early lead.
The Warriors looked set to run away with the game in the first 20 minutes, scoring three converted tries as the Knights barely touched the ball.
The Warriors will need a miracle to resurrect their spluttering season
