The Knights have made every single error imaginable. Need to settle the f**k down. Have defended very well though.

The way this game plays out will be pretty predictable. Raiders forwards will demolish ours and give their spine a ton of opportunities in our half, but will attack like the Bulldogs. We will get less chances in their half but convert more of them. I think we will win but not convincingly.
Looking good.
2 sets in their 20 and we scored but we can't get there.

I got to agree with skeepe, it was a good hit.

Now, can we get a couple of volunteers to get out there and try find his teeth?

Some bizarre reffing tonight but I think they got all the try calls correct.

I'm still flabbergasted it's not a Knights penalty in that Hudson Dumb situation.

i need another 14 points. which will have to be an early game tieing penalty goal followed by an intercept and a grubber that takes 3 deflections and gets pounced on by a front rower because actually setting up for a try isnt in either sides playbook

Saifiti hit Savage in the head with a shoulder - play on.

Thompson with a nasty crusher on Tapine - stays on the field

Guler commits a textbook hip drop - stays on the field

But Hudson Young runs into golden boy Ponga, and he’s straight off.

What a debacle.

we get off to a better start with refs in the first two games, and now we get this spastic red headed mutant and stupid bunker calls

can they just be decent for one year? it kills the game

First infringement was the obstruction.

Danny Levi is one of the lowest footy IQ players i've ever seen
That kick at half time, on the back of running a skinny short side with a Fogarty crash ball...

unreal that he's our first choice hooker... we are in shambles
