Newcastle's charge towards the NRL finals has continued with the Knights taking down Canberra 28-6 behind a scintillating performance from Kalyn Ponga.
In their fourth straight win, the Knights led 26-0 on 50 minutes having capitalised on a deplorable first half from the Raiders to move within a point of the NRL's top eight.
Star No.1 Ponga looked his unstoppable best from the outset at GIO Stadium, busting through the Canberra line in the first set of the game to establish the tempo for a majestic display that included a try, eight tackle busts, 165m and three line break assists.
