Dane Gagai has avoided an NRL ban after the match review committee found the Newcastle star did not question the integrity of officials when he swore at them in Friday night's loss to the Sydney Roosters.
Fresh off another horror night in Newcastle, the Knights at least woke to good news on Saturday with Gagai not even charged for a tirade at referee Peter Gough.
Initially sin-binned on-field, there had been thoughts that Gagai could cop a suspension similar to the three-match ban handed to Melbourne utility Brandon Smith earlier this month.
