If Mullo plays Knights by 30
If he doesn't Knights by 10

 

[Pete Cash]

You have an unhealthy obsession with Skeepe Timmah. I have never seen Skeepe celebrate a Knight breaking his leg like his evil twin Spike did today with the Justin Carney injury.

 

[Timmah]

Unhealthy obsession? It's a f**king joke, lighten up. As for spike, nobody condoned what he said, least of all me. The thread title simply makes light of his well known hate of the Newcastle club and region, which is up there with his level of hatred for referees.

 

[t-ba]

This is going to be an Absolute cracker.

Oh, and The match shouldn't be too bad either.

 

[Jobdog]

Cmon skeepe, who's fault is it going to be? The refs? Jarrod Mullen? Mine? The knitting grannies in the crowd?

 

[Pete Cash]

Well we are going to win... so I guess he will blame the Refs

 

[mxlegend99]

Assuming the Raiders don't have anyone picked for State of Origin, i think they could get a nice big win over the Knights here. They seem to be finding form at the right time of the season.

The atmosphere of Newcastle has a certain effect on civilised people, and the NRL forbids teams to play in pressurised lifesuits.

Things that are bad about Newcastle

This fat bloke who walks around Mayfield and his shirt doesn't quite cover his gut. There is another very similar man who walks around hunter street. Fat blokes with ill fitting shirts are a Newcastle Icon.

Two JB HIFIS within walking distance... are you serious.

That homeless guy who hangs around beaumont street. He has a very annoying voice.

For all these reasons I am picking the Raiders by 50-100 points.

 

[t-ba]

They wear shirts in Newcastle? Beats Brisbane in the summertime.

 

[Timmah]

My god... locations of record stores and fat and homeless people as a reason to hate somewhere? :lol:

Timmah lives within 100km. Don't forget that one.

 

[Non Terminator]

Wish we f*cking had two JB's...

 

[Timmah]

Timmah lives within 100km. Don't forget that one.

Now that is a reason ;-)

:lol: If its the same bloke I'm thinking of, I think you'll find he spends most of his time doing laps of Hunter Street ;-)

 

[Timmah]

...and so it begins

 

[Pete Cash]

lol I actually live in Newcastle because of work.

I was also born in the hunter valley where I began to hate Newcastle after Cessnock was dudded over the 1999 Newcastle Rugby League grand final. Zane Clark obviously scored. !!

 

[skeepe]

Calling me out in a thread title... f**king pathetic Timmah. Get a life you goose.

The Raiders will win because, quite frankly, they are a more talented team 1-17. It's immaterial that the teams haven't been named yet, there's nobody that the Knights have that the Raiders can't better.

There will be absolutely no bitching about refereeing decisions from me this week. Unless it's justified.

Newcastle always get the decisions go in their favour. It's absolutely unfathomable how many mind-boggling decisions go their way. They've won games this season because of it.
