Newcastle have qualified for the NRLW finals after coming from behind and scoring with less than three minutes remaining to claim an unlikely 18-16 win over Parramatta on Sunday.
The Knights looked gone at McDonald Jones Stadium with the Eels holding a 16-12 lead for much of the second half, but Novocastrian Olivia Higgins dived out of dummy-half to score on the left edge in the 67th minute.
