Dylan Lucas would like a word!

He walks into the captaincy for me.

 

[HarVeeGee]

I know he’s not technically a local junior but to me Dylan is exactly the kind of player Newy should be all about.

 

[Old dog]

I think of any player that comes through Flegg or lower as a local junior. Developed and prepared for senior football.

 

[Knight Tales]

So the latest media guess about Kalyn is he may stay if we sign Hannay. I don’t see it. But if this is a move by KP and Andre to force the clubs hand then I don’t like it.
They all have sources these media types but none are named. It is a circus.

I'll happily claim him!

Im reading he wants out to Japan or France.

This is why there’s a growing group of fans who would be happy to see the back of Ponga. First there was sniffing out overseas rugby and now there’s making public what coach he wants. All done at an arm’s length of course.

We don't even know if it's true, let alone if Kalyn or Andre made it public. Is it a circus? Absolutely. The media are the ringleaders.

[Alex28]

Is there actually any public quote about which coach KP wants? Where is a link?

Or is it just some social media comment guessing that?

From the sounds of it, I’d say the rugby rumours are 100% true. Ponga backing Hannay as coach about 80% true.

The difference this time is that the rumours aren’t based on a 5-year old podcast or quotes from Ponga when he was 18. No doubt Andre is putting feelers out with all the uncertainty over AOB’s future.

Hannay rumour apparently coming from an anonymous source very close to Ponga’s camp. Make of that what you will.

Yeah could be! I have no idea, but it appears to be stacks-on-Knights week/month - so a lot of shit is going to get thrown around, especially where Kalyn is concerned. We've sat through many years of the media thirsting over Kalyn leaving the club and it eventuating to nothing, so on this particular topic I take rumours with an extra grain of salt. Where Kalyn is concerned, I've learned to not get too bent out of shape before we hear directly from his camp.

Reckon there's a lot more smoke this time around. Hopefully he pisses off ASAP to give the club more time to plan for 2026 without him.

Yeah, I've just gone and watched Bradmans media scrum interview from yesterday, and I'd say there's a fire. Braddy did well getting his 2 braincells to come together for the interview, but he wasn't very convincing.

What a sad way for this to all end. Just another year being a Knights fan I guess.

 

[Apey]

Hard to know because it's Knights pile-on week, and it started with AOB maybe facing the chop. Get the impression AOB has some mates in the media who are going into bat for him, lol. The old Ricky Stuart strat.

 

[Old dog]

If you get a 100 scoops by media then when the final deal is made or no changes occur someone will have been close enough to claim they nailed it.
And we still have no idea if AOB will get sacked or if KP will leave this year or contract end, what a mess.

Can't wait for the next installment focusing on Hammo North bowls only providing two sides with their rump steaks pre-game. probably focus on how the steaks aren't local enough as well.
