ISP - Knights & Warriors BYE​

 

[TheFrog]

The Knights won't get too many better chances to win back-to-back games this year. Brown will have brought them back to earth pretty quickly, starting with the presser from the last game where all he talked about was how many errors his side made. He's the exact opposite of Ricky Stuart at after-game pressers. Good luck to them but I think the Warriors may just be good enough.

 

[Das Gupta]

Every time I pick the Knights they lose.
I will do Knights supporters a favour and back the hopeless Warriors in this one.
Warriors by 9 points.

 

[Hawkins]

So are Newcastle on a record number of wins in 3 years yet?

Oh and I think they'll beat the warriors

 

[Rhino_NQ]

bodene out for the warriors is another string out of an already depleted attacking bow.

Knights are strong chance in this one

 

[Scrooge McDuck]

Drug cheats will overcome jungle ball.

Knights by 11

 

[ed-grimley]

I don't think Newcastle can get up on consecutive weeks but they can prove me wrong if they like.

 

[GongPanther]

Knights by 28-12.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Knights have given up some strong leads after halftime, something the Warriors specialise in.

Predicting a competitive first half with halftime being the MacGuffin to a catastrophic second half as the paradox created by the ineptness of both teams erupts in spectacular fashion.

Or to put it in short - no f**king clue.

 

[AJB1102]

draw

 

[Todd Hoffman]

Whoever i pick out of these two will stuff up my tips. Knights to get the W @ home. Only because no SJ for the Warriors.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Tipster nightmare or a Knightmare for the Warriors?

 

[Juju]

13 + Knights paying $5.50. Juicy.

 

[Barkley]

Newy to get a winning streak here. Warriors look shot and the Knights have their tail up.

Knights by 10

 

[Rhyno]

Knights by 4

 

[Rhino_NQ]

knights still dodgy on the edges, dragons were making breaks down them but wasn't enough brain matter to get a try out of it. Could be a good night for kata, is one of bodenes strengths which they will miss though.

Overs might be the go for this one

 

[Evil_Mush]

I put a cheeky 20 on Knights 13+ purely due to Doyle declaring us not being smashed by more than 16 points in games this year as an improvement.

Murphys law dictates we will lose by at least 17 points.

 

[Knightmare]

The Knights won't get too many better chances to win back-to-back games this year. Brown will have brought them back to earth pretty quickly, starting with the presser from the last game where all he talked about was how many errors his side made. He's the exact opposite of Ricky Stuart at after-game pressers. Good luck to them but I think the Warriors may just be good enough.

Wonder how many texers he got after the presser....

 

[matrightyeh]

knights easy

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Knights should win comfortably after looking at the Warriors smurf like bench.

Either Kearney is taking the piss or he's gone into full experimental mode (albiet injury has forced his hand.)
