[Fangs]

Nathan Cleary MOM not sure who will win though.

 

[footy75]

Knights. Penrith can't beat Parra at home.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Knights by 4. They will make the 8 this year. Pennies on the other hand....

Welcome to the Hype Cup. Ponga V the Clearys. Panthers can’t play as bad as they did yesterday. I’ll tip them for no other reason then that.

 

[Fangs]

Newy.

 

[Apey]

Not sure Panthers can beat a top 8 team.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

I don't want to be favourites..

 

[GongPanther]

Panthers to restart their season with an entertaining win by 8.

 

[The unknown]

Penrith will bounce back here. If its enough to win who knows, but surely they cant be any worse than yesterday

We don't win this,the game after we play the Storm. Could be on the bottom of the ladder by end of Rnd 3. The only silver lining to that situation is if we blow out to over $20 for the comp, I'm jumping on.

Knights by 4 Tyrone May videos

Can't tip against my team. But this is going to be tough, especially if Ponga finds his feet. Neither Ponga nor Mitchell Pearce scored Dally M points last week in a Knights win.

It'll be a dry track, so win or lose,as log as we play better than that shitty performance from last week, I'll be happy. Plenty of time to catch up to the leaders of the comp if we lose.

 

[mxlegend99]

Based on Round 1 form Knights could win by 20. But Panthers should be greatly improved you would think. Certainly couldn't be any worse.

Any player who doesnt improve on last week needs to be axed. Aside from James Tamou... he keeps that form up and he will finally be delivering what we signed him for.

 

[TheFrog]

Based on Round 1 form Knights could win by 20.

The Knights weren't all that special either. Klemmer was excellent and Pearce pretty good and that was enough.

 

[Silent Knight]

Knights to win by the length of a Duran Duran song.

 

[mozza91]

Not confident. Penrith will be stinging after their shit performance on Sunday. Hopefully a big home crowd will get us over the line.

Yeah but Mozza, Penrith were stinging after the trial loss to Pawwa.
You can't be having repeat stingings.
Look how that worked out for Gus . . . .
