From five-year-old Stella Brown to veteran Knights supporter Robyn Sanderson, Newcastle's NRLW team are superstars who can do no wrong.
Hundreds of Knights faithful headed to NEX Newcastle to watch the women's team do battle for the penultimate prize on Sunday afternoon.
"I'm so proud of them and wanted to come along and show my appreciation for what they have accomplished," Robyn Sanderson said.
"I have been following them from day one. It's been fantastic to watch them get better every game they play.
They are so much better to watch than the men; they play with skill, not aggression."
Like many Knights supporters, Christopeher Vassallo said the women's team was a high point in an otherwise forgettable year.
"We have something to cheer about at last," he said.
"They have done us proud and I am confident they can go all the way and bring it home.
"The comp is going to be even better with more teams next year."
The Knights are due to return to the club between 9.30pm and 10.30pm tonight.
