[mozza91]

We’ll get some square ups after Sutton f**ked us today. Doesn’t mean anything though.

 

[yobbo84]

Kalyn Ponga might score 11 tries himself

 

[Valheru]

Flip a coin, no one could confidently pick this.

I can.

We did not get rub of green against Tigers last week either mate

 

[Rabbits20]

Knights by 12.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Souths have been gutsy but pretty horrible. Cody now out, think this could get ugly. Knights by 18.

 

[Valheru]

I can.

I give them a chance as this is probably their last realistic opportunity to get another win for Cook before he leaves unless we rest everybody in the last round.

Last round could be fun. Last ever game for a Burgess in our colours. Shame Tom is the nice one, because he could go out swinging - literally. Though I do think your coach will have revenge on his mind for some of the thrashings we gave you 2020-22.... you could put 70 on us.

But we're not winning again in 2024.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Knights fans hoping for a Souths win after the news about AOB’s get sacked clause?

 

[mozza91]

Knights fans hoping for a Souths win after the news about AOB’s get sacked clause?

Nah I could never hope for a loss. Even if we lose all the games we still probably won’t finish below 12th anyway.

 

[Someone2]

Souths by 12

 

[perverse]

Knights fans hoping for a Souths win after the news about AOB’s get sacked clause?

It's more like a silver lining if we have to eat shit for the rest of the year, rather than an ambition.

 

[Woody90]

Knights fans hoping for a Souths win after the news about AOB’s get sacked clause?

Kind of yes. Knowing our luck though we’ll lose all 3 but not fall below 12th.

 

[Diesel]

The Saturday night FTA games featuring Souths are the shits since channel 9 is choosing games

 

[This Year?]

Why didnt they do the numbers yellow too?

 

[Artiste]

There’s about 12 people in the crowd

 

[Loose Cannon]

There’s about 12 people in the crowd

I wouldn’t pay to watch this either.

 

[Apey]

Electric atmosphere at the ground for this humdinger.
