Very surprising! Not usually how Ivan runs his ship.

Knights right in this contest now.

So glad we're resting the players. Losing Nathan for 6 weeks would have made Ivan re-evaluate the risk.

Penrith will still win comfortably. If anything it will probably be even easier as the Knights always fall to shit in games they’re a good chance of winning against depleted opposition.

I hope so anyway. I want us to get destroyed. Literally the only excuse Adam O’Brien has is that most of our losses have been close/on goal kicking.

Oh well my disdain for Origin is just re affirmed further after seeing the team list. We better win with the understrength team, or I'll be pretty pissed. I live a long way from Penrith now, and this is one of the few games I'm able to get to this year and with the stars out I feel short changed. In my opinion if we fall to 9 and 6 with Storm away next then top 4 is in jeopardy and obviously premiership chances. Let's hope the Knights are as ordinary as some expect but the version that gave a full-strength Broncos a big scare could easily turn up and then we're in trouble.

If Phoenix Crossland can start in the NRL then so can 93% of Australian males under the age of 45

And 50% of females.

Warren Smith ejaculating all over Moik Oinis over a simple catch and pass against awful defence.

Penrith had 4 on 1 at the end of it because Hastings was defending somewhere near St Mary's
