It will be interesting next week if Bails has a blinder.
He will be hard to drop if he does.

I've always liked the idea of having Bails on the park as a 13, or possibly even in the centres. He adds a good running game and a bit of size, why not play him like his brother?

yeh, if marsh plays i will be that much more confident, particularly with Lockyer out, we need marsh.

Not sure if its been mentioned anywhere else yet, but the King just said on Ch 9 up here that Marsh is confirmed out and Joel Moon comes onto the bench for him - I presume Ennis will be starting hooker.

Things are sounding positive personnel wise, now we just need to turn up with the right attitude! I'm so pumped for this game, I think the team can show people we are serious this season with their performance.

yeah i reckon bails would go alright at 13, simo 11, patto 12 and houston on the bench. then again, this could be unlikely cos smith seems to like the workman-like defensive backrowers to start. and plus it would probly be unfair to drop taia or hilder, theyre doing pretty well atm.

sounds bad, but good to hear that marsh is out too! hes been looking dangerous in attack- could be one of the buys of the year... behind ben cross :)

Could be a bit stormy in Newy this arvo...Severe Thunderstorm Warning out for Syd and the S half of the Hunter, should see this showery/stormy weather extend to Newy by kickoff.

Hey guys,

Tough luck guys - I know as an NRL fan I can never appreciate a losing effort however if I was a Knights fan right now I wouldn't be too devastated. You stuck it to us for the majority of the match and if it wasn't for some poor judgements in attack than our roles may have been reversed. Best of luck for the rest of the season!

I'm not too upset...just annoyed by our simple mistakes, basically the Bronco's capitilised on our mistakes

Things to note:

1. Gidley and Buderus, I don't know what to say. f**king awesome effort by the both of them and if it wasn't for them it would have been a lot uglier.

2. f**k off Vuna, f**k off Lulia. Both sideways running, possession giving fools.

3. Our defence in the middle was woeful. I think pretty much all their tries were results of linebreaks.

4. Someone else needs to kick other than Gidley, yeah it was rough out there today, but give someone else a shot and see how it pans out.

5. Enough of the negatives... we did have some decent moments, they were just shadowed too much by crappy defence.

6. Nice crowd! 21.6k

Should have been a penalty to Knights when No3 was tackled without the ball when knights were on a roll at 28-18. Could have changed the game.

TOTALLY agree with your 3 points above but Number 2 ahould be re-iterated each and every day from now on until they are gone:x. Cant wait for the stats to listed for this game maybe then I can come back and have a statistic point of view at not so much Lulia, but Vuna - for gods sake where did that crap come from!!!!!:crazy:I've only seen Uate play a couple of games but surely he could be NO worse. From all accounts he is supposedly a defensive liability. Well before this game Vuna had made a GRAND total of 3 freaking tackles in 4 games - and his metres gained were pretty average for a winger. Surely Akila could do NO worse. Wouldn['t be too hard to top.
