My tip is hinging on Cronks decision. If he stays at the Storm, the Knights will be belted. If he announces he's leaving, I think it'll distract them enough for the Knights to get up in a close one.

You can consider it a Knights victory if they get within 30 of Melbourne.

The Storm is in a different class to the knights.

Really can't see anyone slowing the storm down atm. Raiders took them the distance but still managed to pull out the play when it was needed. I know they have been up against 2 pretty ordinary sides the last two weeks but they haven't taken the foto off the pedal and still done everything with precision.

Storm up 26-12. Cronk and Neilson to continue killing it for me in NRLCEO

This cocky stuff from Storm fans is why everyone loved it when you got beat in the prelim last year. Playing fantastic sure but come on, you beat the Titans and Roosters. Coming up against a much stronger defence this time. It'll be a close one, doubt we'll win at this stage though. We are a work in progress.

Newcastle penciled themselves in for 4 straight premierships the minute WB signed up. They take not just cocky but delusional to a new level.

Melbourne got beaten by the better team on the day in last years prelim, I've got no problem in admitting that.

We can only play the teams that we are drawn to play, and this far out from the finals nobody knows what the significance of the teams we have beaten. They could be the top 4 or the bottom 4, too early to tell yet.

As for my 'cocky' opinion, its just that. My opinion.

You made up those words in the first paragraph. 'A work in progress' as I said, is the general feeling of Knights fans. The expectation of Bennett was that we could only improve on last year. Your team even knows a good coach doesn't assure a premiership, that's why they had to cheat as well :p Bottom line is don't suggest that getting within 30 is a 'victory' for other teams. Makes you sound like a stuck up merkin when as you say, it is too early to tell yet.

Please point out any Knights fan on here that said we would win 4 straight premierships. Or perhaps you're just pulling that out of your a** because you don't like us.

Intriguing. I never knew my fellow Knights fans spoke with so many derps and blahs.

I think this game will give an indication of where the Knights are at. They are slowly building this season and should give the Storm more resistance than they have in years gone by.

That's a fairly hefty wager

What you don't think they can do it ?

Well, Ill make you a bet then !

-Knights win YOU put Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs 2012 in size 7 bold font in your sig for the rest of the year,
-if the Storm win I'll put St George Illawarra Dragons 2012 in size 7, bold font for the rest of the year.

Deal ? Im that confident !
