The Knights lost their third straight game on Friday Night against the Roosters at Aussie Stadium. The final scoreline was 32-14 despite the Knights leading 14-12 At Halftime. The Roosters got their first win under their new coach who was pleased to see them win. Great playing by Finch showed the Roosters keep the Knights to nil in the second half. Andrew Johns said that his team are looking towards a big comeback against the cowboys next friday and not to write them out of the competition. He was very disgusted at Channel 9 Commentator Phil Goulds smart mouth comments when he heard the game playing. Johns said that it was unacceptable to say such things about a team if he is a commentator. Gould said that The Knights wont make the final this season and are in deep trouble because their players are slack. Gould is to be punished. It is mostly going to be a 5 week fine of commentary and a charge of $5000.
