Wests Tigers dominate woeful Knights to reclaim spot in NRL top 8

The Wests Tigers surged back into the NRL top eight with a dominant 4-20 win over a struggling Newcastle Knights side, whose attack has hit historic lows.

The Knights have managed just 46 points this season—their worst five-game start ever—and continue to rank last in scoring.

Despite showing defensive resilience, their repeated handling errors and lack of attacking spark allowed the Tigers to capitalise, with tries to Sunia Turuva, Starford To’a, and Adam Doueihi sealing the win.

A late consolation try saved Newcastle from back-to-back scoreless games but did little to ease growing concerns.
