And despite three tries in 16 minutes to begin the second half and a late four-pointer to Gehamat Shibasaki, the Knights could not recover from their horror start. The Knights' pack were punished through the middle as the Cowboys erupted with energy unmatched by the visitors.
Fabulous news!!!! Go the Mighty Cowboys !!!!! Great win against all the odds!!!!! Beware the Cowboys with their backs to the wall!!!! Give the Knights a taste of Tuimololo!!!!!!
