Not confident at all about this game, but picking the Storm to win...by 4
(fingers crossed)

 

[kia ora storm]

IMO Storm will be focussed and ready for this game...Cam Smith will be wanting a big game to lead from the front as will Cronk.

 

[Knights_Premiers]

Alright boys. This is our chance. We can move into 7th with a win here. If we do win tomorrow night it puts us in a good position for games against the Cowboys, Raiders and Panthers. Judging by the Cowboys performance and the Panthers defence today, were a fair chance in both of those games too. C'mon Knights!

 

[Timmah]

Toss of the coin.

Will the loss of GI galvanise the Storm or will his absence see them crumble with a weakened backline?

Will the loss of Brian Smith and Stone's takeover bring the Knights new fortune or will they fall further into a hole?

So many questions to be answered. I hope it's close...

Sitting on the fence Timmah;-)

Go the Storm.

Just a really Tough,Hard & fast game with no controversy will do ;-)

I agree...a good flowing game would fit the bill.

 

[Jobdog]

Wicks and Simpson out. Looks like Paterson into the run-on side and Natusch onto the bench.

 

[kia ora storm]

Simpson out will give Storm some hope...

I'm not that disappointed with those changes.

 

[Jobdog]

Nothing confirmed with those changes yet. Maybe Stone might do a Smith ...

fantasy comps make these games more exciting.

Holy crap at the Knights jersey.

 

[Slackboy72]

Holy crap at the Knights jersey.

I understand it's the close the gap round but that jersey looks terrible.

 

[DragonPunk]

Good start so far by Newcastle.

Now undone with a penalty.
