Jersey Flegg Grandfinal: Newcastle vs. Penrith Live Updates- *SPOILERS*

[Big Mick]

Remains 14-6 6 to go till halftime

 

[Big Mick]

Geoff Daniella makes a vital error and gives the Knights a chance before halftime and its hard to say they wont score

 

[Big Mick]

Penrith just get away with it just.

Replay showed it could have been a knights try.

 

[Big Mick]

Penrith a chance now to score just before halftime to put some respectability into the score

 

[Big Mick]

Penrith stuff up yet again.

Errors are costing Penrith a chance to get back into this game and its certainly hard to think they can win.

Penrith nearly push the Knights off the scrum....hint of a knock on but was ok.

 

[Big Mick]

Steve Lyons ... what an idiot.

"I wont talk to you again"

Too bad he is the captain you're saying that too you moron.

 

[Big Mick]

Half Time:

Knights 14 - Penrith 6

Knights look better....a lot better...but alot of that is due to the easy ball they are getting due to Penrith mistakes.

For Penrith to get back into the game they need to fix up their defence in the middle of the ruck which was a problem last week against the Dogs...and also stop dropping the ball. Completions are really killing them.

Knights have the game won so far.

 

[Caged Panther]

Penrith are playing dreadfully really. Having said that Newcastle scored one try off a foward pass and another off a play the ball that you shouldn't be able to get away with.

Hopefully kenny fires a rocket up their arses at half time.

Knights coping usual pasting in the penalties - but very composed and making the most of their chances.
Wooden hasn't had much chance to shine as yet - but Seu Seu, Richardson and Snowden are all having good games.
Not a very taxing half for the Knights - so the great fitness that often sees them take a game in the second half will allow them to come home hard.

Sammut is a liability in defence, but a tricky guy in attack. The Knights are running a lot of play at Sammut - and that is going to keep happening.

From a Knights point of view - I'd love to see Uate and Wooden get a lot of ball in the second half - and i'd bring on Coops for Wright and let another raging bull have a go at Sammut.

Go Knights!

 

[roopy]

Big games also from Allen, Timmy, Scotty and big H.

Great to see the LU forum Crusade getting their faces on the TV every ten minutes too.

 

[Twizzle]

geez, how big are some of these kids

Newcastle playing like minor premiers, they look the goods

 

[Big Mick]

You are kidding Roopy...you're getting the brunt of the penalties?

2 penalties? One where a dickhead should have been sent off for racking across the face? You are deadset kidding.

You've gotten 2 tries that you shouldn't have bloody gotten due to these "unfriendly ref's"

That should have been a knock on against Snowden right there. Came off a Penrith player and back to Snowden...If Jaye gets called back, so should he.

Jennings also had the ball stripped...called a knock on.

If I hear this bullsh*t that you're getting robbed by the ref's, i'll just about explode.

 

[Big Mick]

YEEHAH!

Jennings scores a great try off some great combination work by he and Daniella.

Penrith hit back

Knights 14 - Penrith 10..kick to come

 

[Twizzle]

spoke too soon, Panthers in

 

[willvillain]

Wonderful try from the Panthers!

2 point ball game...

 

[roopy]

good try by penrith

Big Mick - get the goggles off - seriously

 

[roopy]

second penalty for the knights - about time - about 6-2 now

 

[Big Mick]

you get the goggles off.

Why don't you watch the game.

I suppose you'll say you should have gotten that first try...not a forward pass Roopy?...

Stupid play Weepu...what are you doing. You don't pass off the ground.

 

[Big Mick]

At least it'll be an interesting game now.

Its anyone's for the taking...or losing.

Tell you what but....Geez the future is bright for both these clubs. Some very very very talented youngsters in both sides.

Roopy...can u tell me why the Knights havn't offered Dureau a contract?
