Come on Rhyno...spit it out!

 

[Caped Crusader]

44-0

I know it's a trial but sweet Christmas, pull your fingers out Canbrah

 

[Walt Flanigan]

That should give the Knights fans a bit of hope for this season. We only fielded 8 out of our top 17 but there were still some good signs from Newcastle.

He was whinging about the penalty count.

That was hard watching. From the Raiders perspective a couple of the forwards (and guys who will be playing first grade) looked a little on the fat side. I have a feeling we are going to start the year slowly. With the heat and the extra chub it could be like last year.

Clydesdale is very bad and if Hodgson gets injured thats it for the Raiders. Especially with Baptiste out.

For a bunch of blokes auditioning for Crokers centre spot boy did the backline play like shit. Aiono was especially crappy. Nick Cotric I think has genuinely won the spot. Stuart might go with Turner though. I cant see what he sees at training and all that. He outplayed him just now though imo.

 

[GongPanther]

Shit joke.

Moylan puts TMM through a gap to score! 4-0 KTC

WOW...In a trial match?

 

[perverse]

I don't know what Canberra take out of that, as Pete said they were looking for blokes to put their hands up and... well, yeah nah.

Knights fans can at least be somewhat confident that this year will be an improvement on last year. Much sharper. Levi looks primed for a big year.

Panthers 6-0 after 47'.Yeo comes on in about a minute after a stint in the bin.

It's just a trial and as such isn't a reason to give us too much hope, honestly though when you've got a very young squad that won 1 game last year any win in any setting is a good thing in terms of giving them some confidence.

Wouldn't read much into it from a Raider's perspective but might struggle if you pick up a few injuries.

 

[Timmah]

Manly def Roosters 24-22, Dylan Walker late try & conversion got them home.

you arent wrong.

If Hodgson gets injured I am going to stuff my pockets full of rocks and walk into Sydney Harbour

Same with our halves. We were lucky to have someone like Sam Williams to fill the gap last season but the cupboard is pretty bare in that regard now.

 

[GongPanther]

Peachy gets his try disallowed from a forward pass.
