It's near impossible to stop the wave of goodwill sweeping through Steel City in Newcastle right now after the Knights' rollercoaster nine-game winning run to storm into the opening week of the NRL finals.
Coach Adam O'Brien is cracking jokes about being in the Centrelink queue six weeks ago, star player Kalyn Ponga is back in electric form and the sold out sign has already gone up at McDonald Jones Stadium for the third straight game.
Surely no one could take the momentum out of the red and blue wave right now.
