Only worry is Johnson, Warriors to win Knights won't match them

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Warriors should carve up, but the Knight showed improvement.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

First game at Mt Smart for the year, Mannering's 200th. Put in a big effort to keep in touch with the top 8.

 

[vvvrulz]

We should put on a bucketload on them, but like any NRL match simply turning up is not enough (e.g. Sharks this year).

It looks like we're much more professional than that now.

 

[Rod]

If nothing else the Manly game showed a much better attitude and willingness. Unless we show a lot more on attack though I'll doubt we'll have enough points in us to beat the Warriors in Auckland.

 

[Rebel]

We have beaten the knights sum thing like 10 of the last 13 encounters and have scored way more points than them this year. We will go into this game as obvious favourites which means we will probably lose....

 

[Knights_Premiers]

Yep we'll get destroyed.

 

[BranVan3000]

Cripple fight

Cripple fight

In a Newcastle thread really?

 

[matrightyeh]

cant pick maybe warriors

 

[vvvrulz]

Cripple fight

Hell no, if we lose this it will be a choke.
Not saying that isn't possible mind you.

 

[Izz]

Cripple fight

wow

Joey reckons Shaun Johnson might not be playing so if he doesn't I can see us getting up here.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Johnson was rated 50/50 for this one last weekend. Johns is just repeating that. I think he was having a fitness test today.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Yeah I just read an update just then saying he's likely to recover with Tuimoala Lolohea on standby.

 

[MacDougall]

Feel like the Knights will surprise a win here. Exactly the sort of game the Warriors lose and the Knights on paper aren't a bad side, just rocked by a tough season.

 

[afinalsin666]

Warriors 33+. Matulino or Hurrell first try. Easy pickings.
