    Knights Lower Grade Stuff

    In 3 or 4 years time no one will care if we won or loss a Harold mats or SG ball GF, success will be measured in how many of that squad ultimately become decent first graders (most likely at the roosters or storm).

    Rumoured Targets 3

    I’m not sure why you’re shocked, they did the same with Crossland

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Honestly the way we handle personnel so like a non profit charity, 2 years ago Hoy and Crossland were off contract with no offers from any other clubs so what do we do we re-sign them almost out of sympathy. It seems the only time we let players go is when they receive a better offer elsewhere...

    Knights Lower Grade Stuff

    Getting dominated now, they’re defending like the first graders did last night

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    The irony of AOB actual putting someone on notice for the first time and it was one of his pets

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    Teams with strong foundations don’t put in those sort of performances, teams lose games of football, it happens but tonight was an embarrassment and so far removed from the minimum expectations of a NRL first grade team. We have a tonne of work to do in the next fortnight starting with trying to...

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Parramatta @ CommBank Stadium, Parramatta / Burramattagal

    If you’re going to take anything out of this it’s that it exposed all the issues in such a way that it can’t possibly be ignored. We desperately need a specialist hooker for one, we cannot carry Crossland, Mann and Gamble in the same team and there needs to be a dramatic rethink of what we do...

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Parramatta @ CommBank Stadium, Parramatta / Burramattagal

    Brailey was an average NRL hooker but the alternatives are below NSW cup level, genuinely Ron Massey level

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Parramatta @ CommBank Stadium, Parramatta / Burramattagal

    But the point is there’s nothing deterring the opposition to aim their attack at him at every opportunity. You could protect him abit more with someone who can slide abit better or punish the ball runner, when he’s defending with the aforementioned supporting cast the worst case scenario for the...

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Parramatta @ CommBank Stadium, Parramatta / Burramattagal

    Ponga needs to be protected in defence, I think that’s a given now and he’s not the first player who’s in that boat, Lockyer was protected by Tonie Carroll, Soward was protected by Beau Scott, it’s not ideal but it can work but not when your ‘bodyguards’ are Kurt Mann and Phoenix Crossland. You...

    Match Discussion: Round 9 vs Parramatta @ CommBank Stadium, Parramatta / Burramattagal

    If his team mates want to adopt a shitty attitude upon his return then that’s as much on them as anyone

    2023 R8 ANZAC DAY - Melbourne 30-22 Warriors @ AAMI

    Sims should start getting acquainted to the Brisbane Easts guys

    2023 R8 ANZAC DAY - Sydney 27-26 St Geo Illa @ Allianz

    Have you just started watching nrl? That’s been the amended pronunciation for Paulo pretty much since they got rid of Rabs

    2023 R8 ANZAC DAY - Sydney 27-26 St Geo Illa @ Allianz

    That’s a ridiculous call, any other player and wouldn’t even be a penalty

    RTS returning to the NRL

    With those kind of conspiracy I’m guessing you’re a Riccardo Bosi voter?

    RTS returning to the NRL

    How do you cut out a winger? So what’s your conspiracy for RTS? That he was left out to spite NRL? In union he’s not a fullback, fullbacks in union are primary kickers which isn’t what RTS is, he’s a 13 or winger but stuck behind 3 current all blacks in those positions at the blues so in...

    RTS returning to the NRL

    Because for those countries it’s all about the international aspect of rugby union, there is a certain level of snobbiness too. League is big in 3 markets, union has a broader global appeal, someone from Argentina or SA would probably look at that and not think much.

    RTS returning to the NRL

    That’s in reference to STH Africa and Argentina and he’s probably right, different culture and for them it’s all about the international game. Most of those guys wouldn’t even know much about rugby league to be fair
