Us at home.

Tonight's performance was convincing considering the pressure we constantly placed on the Cowboys. It took us awhile to crack them in the second half though. If we do the same thing, Canberra will crack quicker.

Also the return of Mason, Tahu and Gidley in number 14, we'll be too strong.

Looking forward to knocking the arrogance out of you merkins.

 

[Misanthrope]

Knights by a similar margin to their other home wins this season.

Canberra flattered to deceive against the heirs apparent to the wooden spoon.

 

[Springbokfly]

Knights by 28

Ha.....

No chance.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Raiders by plenty

 

[Jono078]

Looking forward to knocking the arrogance out of you merkins.

LOL.

You conceded 17 points against the Dragons!! Any other NRL team that equates to around 64 points.

 

[skeepe]

Knights fans eh?

Going to really, really enjoy this win. Raiders by 14.

 

[Rod]

So when we think we're going to win it's arrogance, but not when you think the Raiders will win?

This man knows. His football team are as good as Jarrod Maxwell's refereeing decisions, and by that I mean of an exceptionally high standard. Jarrod Croker is a future Blues centre in the making and he will tear the Knoughts paper thin defence apart.

David Furner is a certified genius, he wouldn't have a bar of Neville Nohands at the Raiders these days. Our old fossil of a coach on the other hand treats Neville like the teachers pet, expect him to start at halfback over that hack Tyrone Roberts who showed how little he offered tonight against the Cowboys rock solid defence.

Finally the Furners had the gall to steal our most potent strike weapon from last year. Joel Hitman Edwards. This guy is going to go to town on Jeremy Smith and show us all what a real backrower is capable of.

So here's my pick. Raiders by 15 points. The Knoughts will be ripped off by bad refereeing decisions, which is only fair haw haw haw. You heard it here first.

 

[perverse]

Yay, my favourite game-day thread of the year. Knights by plenty, Canberra have nothing and are a bit of a shambles at the moment. They will fall to pieces once we start turning the screws.

 

[natheel]

Knights by 20

But like in round 2 will they carry on with the pen or put in a sub par performance?

 

[Apey]

0 - 0 draw after 79:59, in the last second Tyrone Roberts kicks a field goal attempt, it misses narrowly, but is awarded by mistake. The good guys win.

 

[Jobdog]

It really is as simple as which Knights side turns up.

 

[RABK]

Seriously? Knights by 42.

 

[Misanthrope]

Things are grim for your club when "Campese is back" is some kind of rallying cry.

 

[Gidley Up]

Knights by how much of a gaylord Skeepe is to the power of how many shitty tattoos Josh Dugan has.

 

[perverse]

lol... to be fair he has been paid roughly $125k per game over the past 2 seasons. I'd think he's shit hot if my team were paying him that, too.

 

[Springbokfly]

The raiders are shit. The knights should win by at least 20.
