[Das Gupta]

Hmm final home game for the Knights could they get up?

 

[mozza91]

We'll aim up and keep it close but Cronulla will be too good

 

[Hawkins]

I wanted to say congrats to Wade and Gallo for your 300 and 200 milestone and what a pleasure it was to watch you lose you f**king goofs.

Sorry Maloney you deserve better.

Sharks to win easily.

 

[Valheru]

Knights have turned up to play for most of the year and will do so here. Whether that is enough to beat the sharks, who knows.

I think this will be tight.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Old boys day is a bit of a wank, have they ever actually won on it?

Sharks by 30.

 

[to_ddeath]

Knights by 2.
Would love nothing more than a Scumulla loss here.

 

[JamesRustle]

I'll be going for the result that helps create Dragons v Sharks in week 1 of finals... home final for the Dragons too!

They've only lost 5 Old Boys Day games since 1998.. Idiot.

You mean the new rule if you lose on another club's old boys day, you get stripped of 2 competition points?

Traditionally been a successful day for them, they do lift.

Last few years, not so much though, which equates to their overall season performance.

Considering they have been playing pretty good at times in the latter half of the year, the chance is there that they could really turn up for this.

Hope not though.

 

[Clifferd]

Sharks. Too much to play for

They'll want to atleast finish 5th & avoid Melbourne in Melbourne in a prelim.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

sharks by 4, after knights leading for most of the game

 

[JamesRustle]

Nope. I don't think a 5th placed Sharks would be playing an 8th placed Dragons at the swamp, rather it would be at one of our home grounds - SFS or ANZ.

 

[Card Shark]

Ok, gotcha.

1 of 4 home grounds?

 

[JamesRustle]

Ok, gotcha.

1 of 4 home grounds?

Keep up... Kogarah, Gong, ANZ, SFS (for ANZAC day), SCG (for Retro round).

 

[matrightyeh]

sharks buy 10

 

[GongPanther]

Sharks by 40...ending the Knights' shitty miserable season and thus completing a hat-trick of wooden spoons.

 

[Card Shark]

There is no way we score 40, let alone win by that many,

We don't have it in us atm.

I'm just praying for a win to keep us 5th.
