    I have a sickening feeling in my stomach

    I HOPE I AM WRONG I have this nasty intuitive (no information to support this)feeling that the Knights MisManagement will announce next week that their "strike outside back" signing will be CHRIS WALKER!!!!!!! If this eventuates I will not be renewing my Season Ticket nor by club membership...

    Weidler on Carney to Newcastle

    This stinks of desperation - the same desperation that saw us throw way too much money at Reynoldson just because we had botched up the Tahu and BK negotiations and hadnt signed any quality replacements. How desperate is it really when we are EVEN CONSIDERING signing a player who has never...

    Keeble gives insight into 2006

    Source- Newcastle Herald 23/6/05 "Knights advised to shop around" Brett Keeble. For the wishful thinkers, the dreamers and the dillusionary. Using quotes from the club (Crowe and Harragon) Brett tells us what we have to look forward to in 2006. Time to start accepting the truth. Some of us...

    Biggest cleanout in club's history - A Must Read

    Been done before with Reynoldson CWB. I agree with Nuffys assessment that the Reynoldson signing was a panic after losing BK and Tahu. Knights mismanagement felt under pressure to sign a big name and consequently negotitation favoured Krk. Good luck to him but fair dinkum the reported $240k he...

    Biggest cleanout in club's history - A Must Read

    I agree 100% Antonius IF WE USE THE FREED UP CASH TO SIGN THE RIGHT UP-AND-COMING JUNIORS. I hope that is the case. It is also equally possible that we will use the extra dollars to pay current contracts that had staggered player payments over their contract term. For example, we may have agreed...

    I dont question his character but I certainly do question his business accumen and commercial ability.

    Biggest cleanout in club's history - A Must Read

    I heard the Crowe radio interview that Nuffy is referring to this morning and what Nuffy says is spot-on. The quotes attributed to Crowe by Nuffy are correct. There is a direct conflict between what he said in that interview with Cameron Williams and what Barry Toohey says and implies in his...

    Excuse or Reason?

    In my opinion, the players that have not improved to an acceptable 1st grade standard but have been given ample time to do so are Quinn, Carmont, Hall, Price, Quigley, Perry and maybeTanner??. I also think that next season will be make or break for Woolnough. He has not kicked on as well as most...

    Excuse or Reason?

    Note to Michael Hagan: "Inexperience and lack of understanding defensively sort of killed us."( quote by Michael in todays press)- this is an excuse Hages- cut the crap. It should have read (if he was honest) "Ineptitude and lack of defensive skills killed us as it does every week." If I recall...

    Excuse or Reason?

    Another very disappointing week on the field. As far as I,m concerned, this week, like every other round this year, proves one simple fact- The Knights players (as a 30 man squad) are simply not good enough. This is the real reason. I am saying this as a collective as obviously we do have some...

    Naming Rights Sponsor announced

    Excellent News BUT prepare yourselves for the self-congratulatory, back-slapping PROPAGANDA that we WILL be bombarded with coming from The Knights Management. The truth is that this is only part of the solution. Remember we still have the same people in charge, people who have managed...

    Brilliant insights

    Your assessment of Nuffy Gene is way off the mark. You can whinge and moan, give-up, be overcome by apathy or you can get off your ass and try and make things change. I know for a fact that Nuffy is a leader and one of us who is trying to reform change. There are a core group of us working with...

    The "Hagan must go" petition thread

    If you stick to the rational argument and aviod the blame game, the answer is clear. WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH- The Knights have way too many sub-standard players, some of whom are o way too much money. I cannot blame the players. If you entered your Datsun 120Y in a drag race with a Top Fueller...

    Being realistic; players to chase.

    At present- No Way.

    Being realistic; players to chase.

    Mac if the figure is in the $200k relm, that implies to me (I,m not convinced by the contract upgrade argument) that the club has decided to resign the likes of Perry, Hall, Price and maybe Hughes albeit at reduced contracts. Looking at it from a reality perspective they are going to the free...
