A MESSAGE FROM THE COACHES DON & BEAR:
Last game of the season is this Saturday against the Melbourne Mustangs. The loser of the game will take the distinction of wooden spoon holders for the year. The Knights have made it their sacred duty to win! The job will be much easier with a huge, supportive crowd cheering us on. Let’s show the Mustangs how it’s done!
This is also the last opportunity to see Canberra’s 4 imports – Lucas Schott, John F Kennedy Jr., Nic Polaski and Mike Brown. Let’s show them our appreciation for all their contributions to the Knights and the greater community.
Finally, as many of you know Nic Polaski is growing his hair so he can donate his locks for making wigs for people suffering through cancer. To show our support of Nic’s cause there will be buckets passed around to make donations, with the proceeds being given to Nic during the year-end awards banquet next Friday. Be sure to give generously. To further support Nic’s cause we are calling the day “Mullet Justice Madness”. Get in the spirit and wear a mad mullet wig to the game!
From all the Knights we want to thank everyone for their amazing support throughout the year. You are SO amazing.
Don’t forget to come over to Soul Bar after the game to celebrate the season the the team.
See you all Saturday.
Go Knights Go!
