00:00It's going to be awesome. It's going to be huge, no doubt. A lot of people will showcase
00:04memorabilia from years and years of rich history. This current playing group is only a small part
00:11of that, but we're very honoured. I guess to be able to be representing the people of Newcastle
00:17now, you know, and the culture and the values that have been built for so long.
00:23Yeah, we want to represent our people the best we can.
00:26So if people are interested or they've got Knights memorabilia, you can go onto our website
00:32and go in and tell us what you've got because this show isn't anything without the objects
00:38that come in from Newcastle. So check out the website and share your Knights history.
00:45I've got my headgear. That's obviously a big part of who I am, but also it's the Knights colours as

00:57I don't think I've got anything else, you know, but no doubt a lot of people will share some
01:04awesome things. It'll be interesting to see what they, no doubt there'll be a lot of people
01:08willing to give, but what they find as well, under shared anyway, you know, it'll be special.
01:14Yeah, it's pretty unreal. It's something that I think Newcastle can really get behind.
01:18Being a local junior growing up in Newcastle,
