2019 R19 Fri - Knights 26-28 Wests Tigers @ Beanies for Brain Cancer Stadium

[Frederick]

Another one down for Nathan Brown. Triple M were saying the Knights were about to resign the merkin. Surely not.

He's on an open ended contract with no fixed finish date, they could sack him tomorrow if they wanted.

I am hearing a coach swap with Mary at the Dragons.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Don't apologise, it gives them an excuse.

Well to be fair Even if they got the ball we were up by 2 with 2 mins to go

 

[footy75]

Knights...

In contention for top 4 and then lose to dogs warriors and tigers at home....

Lucky if they play finals now.

 

[no name]

I actually agree with the penalty.
Was a clear shoulder charge and got him in the melon.
The refs have binned those previously, so can see why they did tonight as well.
Unsure why all of them haven’t been binned though.

 

[Haffa]

What on earth can they be booing?
He gets cleaned up off the ball was KO'd by the contact.

Goodness me

Bracing for impact.

 

[nick87]

Why wasn't that a penalty try?

Ponga wasn't playing at the ball, he was trying to take out another player in a try scoring position and whacked him in the head.

It's a fair question. Fair closer to a penalty try than they seemed to consider.

 

[Cockadoodledoo]

On a side note, I am sure I am not the only one who worries Moga will do his ACL everytime he runs the ball.

 

[Vee]

I don’t mean blinkered in favour of Newcastle, I mean he literally misses what’s going on

Still in my top 2 or 3. Just imo.

 

[Iafeta]

They should. That roster is packed. He’s had all the excuses under the sun this bloke.

 

[age.s]

Dufty didn’t smash anyone in the head and knock them out cold...

It was a penalisable offence against a guy who was falling over the line. MCK ended up worse than Naden sure but how hurt someone end up isn't the metric that should be used for sin binnings.

He’s on an employment agreement. He can get let go tomorrow without any severance. Why would they extend him?!

What if they end up hurt because they were illegally whacked in the head

 

[Apey]

We were robbed the opportunity to have the last say but really I don't think we would have done anything of note with it.

Tigers deserved the win and I think that's our season over.

 

[the seagull]

Haha a horrendous decision to sin bin a player who made high contact off the ball and knocked guy out?
f**k off then, you wont be missed

Mate you seem to have a lot of opinions, in fact 9616, that a lot of Bullshit from one person. Luckily opinions are like orgasms, a don't give a f**k about anyone elses' but mine

 

[bileduct]

Multiple replays show the back of Chee Kam's head slamming into the ground...

Blocker: Wait up, they're saying this is a head knock? I thought he hurt his shoulder?

Dumbest f**ker on the planet.

 

[GongPanther]

Farcical decision, sorry Knights fans, that was bullshit

Just looked it again in freeze frame and slow mo. Ponga's upper arm does make contact with the players head, and is unconscious before he hits the ground.

Not looking good at all.

Yup, and Ponga isn't even playing at the ball. His intention is to take Chee Kam out.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Release the Chee Kam

Not exactly what I had in mind

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Yeah when he worked out he wasn’t getting to the ball, Ponga turned in to Chee Kam
