[PenrithPanther45]

Tits by 7

 

[Hawkins]

Is this game like dividing by zero? If the Titans and Knights play will the universe collapse as both teams try to lose.

I pick Newcastle because why not

 

[Whino]

Knights to finally break the streak. Need a new fullback though.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Another close loss where the Knights spine will fail to close out the game

titans by 6

 

[mozza91]

If we play like we did for the majority of Round 1 and they do aswell we're a big hope.

 

[GongPanther]

Knights of niii!! by 8.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

I like the Knights here. Hayne looks like he'd rather be anywhere else

 

[Todd Hoffman]

Knights to finally win, Hayne has a new dream and buggers off to synchronised swimming at the end of the season.

 

[perverse]

Well, it's pretty safe to say that the Titans have a better spine, better backs, a better forward pack and a better bench. At least on paper.

I'm not sure if any team ever wins with Brendan Elliott as their fullback.

 

[Johnny88]

Knights to win, titans to implode thanks to Hayne.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Tits to show up at the kickoff instead of halftime this round and win by 10. Don and ross face off of completely average wingers that still manage to score tries regularly

 

[Hawkins]

Titans should move the stupidstar to reserve grade for a week or two. It would keep the focus off him and let them focus on the game

 

[Das Gupta]

Knights!

 

[Rhyno]

Titans by 2

 

[ed-grimley]

I'm giving the Knights the kiss of death by tipping them. Sorry fellas.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Titans.

 

[Valheru]

Knights are huge value at $2.30. They at least look like a happy bunch and put in an enthusiastic effort last week.

The Titans can deny it all they want but Hayne has been a massive distraction and is in the doghouse at the club. It could get ugly for the Titans this season.

 

[Paullyboy]

How are so many people on the Knights? The Titans have blown out to 1.70 and it's absolute money for jam

 

[Vic Mackey]

How are so many people on the Knights? The Titans have blown out to 1.70 and it's absolute money for jam

Agree

Whilst we would all love the Knights to get up and I'm sure they'll put in a huge a huge effort, look at the two teams on paper and the Titans have them well, well covered.

Titans $1.90 -3.5 looks tremendous value IMO
