It was a strong start by the visitors with Timanu Alexander barging over in the opening five minutes.
The Panthers hit back before Luke Huth scores a solo try from dummy half in the 17th minute to put the Knights up 8-6.
Quick tries from the Panthers saw the mountain men head into the break up 18-8.
