Full-time: Warriors advance to the preliminary final against the Broncos in Brisbane next Saturday with a 40-10 thrashing of the Knights. Can’t remember a finals atmosphere quite like that. The crowd support for the Warriors was something else. It was an unfortunate way to bow out for the Knights, but they can hold their heads high after a 10-match winning streak.
