LATE MAIL

Five players in doubt but are hopeful all will play against the Roosters. Prop Ben Cross (thumb) will see a specialist today and remains a strong chance of playing pre-Origin selection. A decision is likely to be made today on whether bench player Dan Tolar (rib cartilage) plays. Cooper Vuna (calf), Adam MacDougall (calf) and Chris Houston (knee) will have fitness tests, although they are not expected to be forced out.

The Roosters are expected to be 1-17.

Minichiello out ... possible career ending neck injury. Just on NBN news

Very strange that it was only announced so late today, must have occurred at training.

Tough for Mini if that is the case. In 2002-04, he had to be one of the best players in the NRL. Great returner of the football, an under-rated finisher, good tackler.

For the game, the last time I guess the Roosters took the Knights a little lightly, and the Knights embarrassed them in the second half. No let-down this time, the Chooks will have to earn the two points here. Roosters by under 10.

Game's been on for 25 minutes

Roosters are in first... TRY and it's 6-0.

 

[cupid]

Knights with 8 erros and a 57% completion rate have been terrible.

 

[NthKnight]

Finally a bomb for Pato and a try

 

[MEATWAD]

why are not the knights being penalised for offside nearly every defensive set? they scored that try off field position gained through unpenalised offside play.

 

[Timmah]

Wouldn't have been a concern if Pearce didn't throw that forward pass ;-)

6-all just before halftime.

 

[MEATWAD]

markers not square, not penalised

 

[cupid]

jeez, I hope the Knights dont get away with this when we are playing them next week.

 

[MEATWAD]

ohh no but the roosters get penalised for offside marker ... not newcastle.

 

[MEATWAD]

sure, but a pass forced on him by two players who were 2 metres off side!

Sure you aren't a Raiders fan?

 

[wittyfan]

Bailey's a goose.

 

[MEATWAD]

Sure you aren't a Raiders fan?

i don't understand the comparison, sorry.

 

[NthKnight]

We are vveerryy lucky to be ahead by 2 at the break. too many unforced errors and Haynes eyes must be fading in and out, he has dead set missed some glaring offences yet seen others.

f**k off moron.
