It was a terrible way to lose Widdop but maybe good opportunity for Hunt and Norman to step up and prove themselves. They won't be looking over their shoulder for Wids and second guessing themselves.
Dufty back is huge for us, should never have been sidelined. The 10 day turnaround should also give Frizzel time to recover. This could be a real breakout game for us now we're at near full strength and the boys know it's crunch time after 2 losses and a not so convinving win, time to step up.
Newie have a decent bench and a strong starting pack, it will be close.

I will be very disappointed if we lose this game. It's been a while since we lost up there and I know the Ponga experiment wasn't going well but, he didn't have enough time to adjust.Lino should be a welcome addition but the Knights spine which hasn't clicked yet much like ours. Anyway I think this game will be won up front and from what I've seen from the Knights this season, Saints forwards look slightly better on form.

Far out. Frizell is one tough bastard. Can’t believe he’s back so quickly.
We have the technology, we can rebuild him.Welcome back Tyson Frizell and your bionic $6 million ballbag.
Oh god, not the red alternate jerseys
I was looking forward to this game
