GAME DAY THREAD - KNIGHT

[Cheese sandwich]

That was seriously superb stuff, we were also battling a referee and bunker that was trying their best to get the knights home but couldn't get them near us. This is a really good football side that looks like it does its homework on every little aspect of the opposition.

I tell ya what this Cummins bloke hates us doesn't he. Raiders and tonight we were really up against him

Fitzy needs to question this so it doesn't continue, doing it after a win is the best time so we don't just look like whinging for the sake of it after a loss. Some baffling calls tonight.

He's channelling Ashley. Just for you LOL

I'll give Cummins one thing though. When Ronnie was head highed by the no arse man Bennie said to Ronnie, "thanks for not going on with that"

You know in past years I would be worried that next week we would switch off and take Wests lightly. This is where I think Dale and Fitzy will have a massive impact. Keeping minds on th e jobs when expected to win easy

Good times!
Also, I’m really happy that Hynes, Moyza and Finucane turned out to be ‘negative’ to Covid after all.

You are a rascal Bluey but a lousy prankster.

You are a feminine word. Ends in unt

What a great night. A great win for the boys and my first bet for the year, a 3 try scorer multi in the Panthers/Souths game is all ready completed

Exactly my thoughts too - Cummins even said something along the lines of ‘are you sure that’s right’ and made the bunker have another look on that last Knights challenge - they gave us nothing all night, but we were good enough to take it out of the equation.

Talakai has to be in our starting 13, wherever, but to be honest, I’m sold on him as our 2nd strike centre!

Maybe Tracey is our utility, instead of Trindall…

Did Trindall get any game time?

 

[roboshark]

Yep not sure if exact minutes

Another thing I noticed through the game, why wasn’t Gagai forced to go off for HIA by the bunker after milking the penalty? My understanding was that if you stay down after a head knock, you had to go to HIA - a big part of this being introduced was to discourage laying down.

Great effort tonight. Watched the defence close and the inside was covered all night. Multiple In each tackle and Ponga easily covered. Simply brilliant.

Some bad calls in attack that saved the knights multiple times and some ref calls that probably saved it from being 40 to be honest.

Tell me something
did the bunker get broadcast across the TV when they said "Mulatalo played the ball too quickly" ???
what the hell. At the ground everyone was just very confused and swearing

Same reason Ronnie didn't to go after he was dropped on his melon

Same reason Bennie gave a penalty for a minor ruck infringement, outside the 40, when it should have been a restart.

Same reason Toby got done for a strip he didn't strip

The reason, in a word..........incompetence

Just the 17 tackle busts from Sifa

Yeah, Cummins sent it up saying ‘I’d called held, but not release’, so we couldn’t win the challenge…
Since when did the rules get changed to require a ‘release’ call after the held call?

Vossy let us know at home.

"I didn't call my second release." Second release? Where the fekk did Bennie pull that from?
