[Rodney Rude]

Sharks to break the previous record set in 2016 Vs Knights.

Sharks 76
Knights 2

After the game, O'Brien will once again request an “honesty session”.

Knights will win if Moylan plays

You are Trent Merrin, right?

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Knights will win if Moylan plays

He has as much chance of playing this weekend as Dylan Brown.

Sharks

 

[Valheru]

Knights look shot

Sharks to win

I might be a little overweight, but that comparison is just outlandish.

 

[GongPanther]

Knights with a BBF win by 24-18.

 

[coolumsharkie]

Run hard at Mitchell Pearce all night, he was craptacular in D against the Warriors.

If Sharps can't win this they deserve to be booted from the comp

 

[Someguy]

When do the knights just accept that Kurt Mann is actually the key to their attack. He can unleash Ponga’s potential and reduce the workload Ponga and Pearce. Mann at no.9 is a waste he needs to be in the halves, Mann at 6 and knights should win this one and take away and chance of missing the 8

Well we’re not favourites in this match.

Drugcastle is.

Probably because according to Matty Johns Newcastle have the best player in the world In Kalyn Ponga. He has him on his show as a special guest every two weeks.

A Sharks fan calling us Drugcastle is f**king hilarious.

 

[Leber]

Boocastle by about 6 booooooos.

You guys are the experts. You won a premiership*. We tried it and ended up 14th.

Nothing wrong with a high functioning drug addicted.

 

[Frailty]

Newcastle had an awful game last start - they will be better this week.
Sharks will be complacent because of the Cowboys game - neglecting the fact the Cowboys are awful.
Ben Cummins is refereeing so it's hard to see the Sharks getting many 50-50s go their way.
Newcastle are coming 7th - which means Sharks won't win (can't be any team in the 8).

 

[Apey]

We're only favourites because SJ is out, not convinced it's enough to get us the win.
