[Joker's Wild]

Newcastle, Mullen especially, seem to love playing up in Townsville so I expect this to be a high quality attacking match given the form of both sides. If it gets down to a grind, I think the Knights will have too much toughness for the Cowboys but any side with JT cannot be underestimated.

Knights by 8

 

[Rhino_NQ]

may have got the result on sat but the completion rate was horrendous. Still on a roll though and back us by 2

 

[footy75]

huge game for the cows... must win

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

I've picked the Cows just because they're at home. They have the potential to put the Knights on egg shells.

 

[BDR]

Should be a huge blow out, we'll win by 40 I reckon

 

[Rod]

Play like we have the last 6 or so weeks and we'll win. Pretty simple really.

 

[matrightyeh]

cows should win this

 

[Apey]

Lots of hope around for the Cowboys to make the 8.

But watch out the mighty Knights are in town.

... Cowboys by 6.

 

[Big Pete]

What is the Knights record like in Townsville since the JT era? For some reason, I have the impression it isn't any good.

I went Cowboys.

I went Cowboys.

Newcastle are 3/6 there since 2006. No idea what number of games Thurston has played in. Their overall record is 6/13, so hardly poor.

 

[perverse]

It's pretty down the middle between the two teams since JT started there. Mullen has a tendancy to fire against the Cowboys... which probably takes the JT factor out of it a bit.

Whichever team wants it more will win today. Nth QLD isn't really a hoodoo away match for us.

 

[kia ora storm]

This will be a cracker...Cows by 4.

 

[Big Pete]

Aye, just a wrong impression.

For some reason, the 2009 game just really sticks out in my mind.

 

[HowHigh]

Lui for 1st scorer!

 

[Rhino_NQ]

cows score over 21

 

[HowHigh]

Cows -5.5

 

[Matchball]

I got a big multi here riding on a Knights win to be alive for the last leg tomorrow.
Tigers/Warriors/Knights/Manly. Come on. $3800 collect for 200$

 

[Horrie Is God]

The day of the debut player..

 

[HowHigh]

Damn you Lui, should have been there in support and demanded he passed it
