[Noa]

Dogs are lucky they finished in the top 2 coz the Knights will win.

 

[ostrich20]

They aren't lucky, they have performed well all season, just need noddy to get them to the GF.

I have tipped the knights in this one, but it could go either way.

 

[dragondad]

I hope the Knights wear that heritage jersey that they wore today,it's very nice.

What do you reckon estimations are for this one,30k?

The timing is terrible. Last time we finished 2nd was 2006, we played Canberra on a freezing wet night at ANZ at 8:30pm on Saturday and got 14k.

I think we're probably good for a crowd of around say, 26k?

I think Newcastle's best bet is wearing the heritage jersey - the dominating red offers the least in the way of clashes with our jersey.

Dogs.

dogs by 26. knights r pathetic

 

[Apey]

I think we can win this one.. but I think Dogs will end up making it further than us ^_^

 

[sando88]

im puttin my full bank on dogs 13+ im most confident outta this den the rest. hopefully i get good odds also cos kimmorely out. knights cant attack like tigers can so there best hope is to win in low scorin game

 

[dragondad]

There will be lots of buses coming down from Newcastle,you can count on that.

It took me two or three readings to understand what he was trying to say, but then LOL. That Tigers attack should be pretty useful tomorrow during Mad Monday.

Knights are a huge chance if Kimmorley is out. Big chance even if he is in - we've beaten them once this year already with him playing. Can't see why we can't do it again.

 

[Timmah]

He played with a massive cork against you tbh, had no impact.

 

[Alex28]

The results page still has us for a win doesn't it Timmy?

 

[Game_Breaker]

Whats up with de Gois?

 

[lockyno1]

Knights, mind you if you asked any team who they would rather play against 1st round of the finals, they would probably all say the Bulldogs, as and I'll be first to admit it if I am wrong, but if you are relying on Ben Roberts and Holdsworth you're stuffed!
