Penny by 10.

Depending on what team our coach picks, i'm not too confident.

Hopefully he keeps Graham and Iosefa in the team at the very least.

 

[murraymob]

the knights are getting a heavy in jury toll .Jessie royal will be out.We will be at close to full strength Penrith by 8

 

[mxlegend99]

The thing is... our coaches idea of "full strength" is actually worse then when injuries force his hand.

Fortunately our backline will have 5 of the 6 following players:
Wesser, Gordon, Jennings, Blair, Tighe and Coote.

It's our halves and bench that concern me.

Elliot Was on the radio today saying you have 5 players coming back from injury.. I'd be concerned now...

 

[mxlegend99]

Agreed, The more options Matt Elliott has, the more likely it is he will f*ck our team up.

 

[murraymob]

the run on forwards will not change. The backline should not change The bench may be where the changes happen.Woolnough has said in a interview he is expecting to have to play for windsor as he has been out for so long

 

[Jobdog]

So far this year the Knights have gone WWLLLWWLLLWWLLL which means we're due for two wins in a row, starting this Friday

 

[mxlegend99]

Panthers form is:
LLWWLWLWWWLLLDW

So we haven't really got a pattern going. Aside from being hard to tip, we're inconsistant.

 

[Apey]

Not confident :crazy:

 

[Gaba]

I got a feeling the panthers will go down in this one

 

[DragonPunk]

Panthers by 6.

 

[Joker's Wild]

The thing is... our coaches idea of "full strength" is actually worse then when injuries force his hand.

Unfortunantly our coach has the same attitude. How Danny "Donuts" Wicks keeps getting a FG start is beyond me.

 

[murraymob]

remember you newcastle guys we have one of your ex players Brendon Worth and he may play.You should be happy you have wicks

 

[macavity]

with the Knights team named, if it runs out that way, Penrith 13+.

 

[mxlegend99]

At the moment... probably. But wait for Matt Elliott to destroy the Panthers fans hopes just as Brian Smith did to the Knights fans. :lol:

Half the coaches are f*cking ridiclous these days. :crazy:

 

[African Monkey]

Panthers by 12.

 

[Jobdog]

Oh dear. Penrith by plenty.
