Smith hails 'tremendous' Knights, despite loss

The Knights lost 26-20 to the Warriors at Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland, following a golden point loss to Parramatta in round three.

Smith says his players showed great character to fight back from 14-0 down.

"I thought our boys were tremendous in that at half-time we were down 14-12, just by two, after the avalanche of possession that the opposition had," he said.

But Smith acknowledged that discipline cost his side the win.

"Any team that gives away a string of penalties finishes up in trouble."
