Knights Run-home

[keeney]

2008 is a long time away, but I'd resigned myself to it for awhile. Even if we make the finals we're not gonna win the premiership this year. Best to just give our players some more time to build combos and get excited about next year.

 

[~knights~]

As already said I think it really hinges on Monday, if we lose I doubt we'd be able to recover enough to make the points up. If we win we'll still be in the mix.

I do too

We have to win on Monday night

otherwise we will be relying on other teams to lose etc

Hey guys, you know what I love? Facts. And here's some facts for you:

So, lets see. In 10 matches played in NZ, we've come away with 7 wins, 2 losses and a draw...yeah, we certainly do struggle over there. May as well not even turn up!

lol... perhaps i got a little too excited. And I remember last time we went over there we had our arses handed to us, so I suppose I'm still gutted over that. The point I was trying to get accross is that the Warriors have been playing very well at home. =And at the beginning of the year Mt Smart was somewhat like what the Graveyard is for Melbourne. That is the reason I am not so confident we will win over there.

Had our asses handed to us?

Yeah 30-18 is really getting your ass handed to you :crazy:

STFU CJ

I was meaning they embarrassed us quite well. Everyone was expecting us to win that match. And the Warriors just run us all over the park.

Lol I remember that game, and CJ is right, they did play all over us.

We were lucky to get 2 late tries in the end to only lose by 12, could have been more than double that really.

For those who didn't see the game and only saw the final score, do you think they'd say we got our asses handed to us? ;-)

Getting your ass handed to you is round 11 this year

Those who did see the game know we were completely outplayed.

 

[Jobdog]

Outplayed yes, but hardly getting our ass handed to us. Difference in terminology perhaps

i think outplayed is a good word... i also think 50 points is getting ur ass handed to you

 

[Apey]

What about 65?

YOU SAID TO NEVER BRING THAT UP EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :x :crazy:

Though I must say seeing the Blues win on Wed night from row 2 smack on the halfway line somewhat made up for it

 

[Jobdog]

Sorry

 

[Serc]

Thats ok I feel even sorrier for you since you came up here to see it!

 

[jhonny bravo]

Sorry to rehash something that has been discussed but looking at the result of tonights game it shows that anything is possible with one team turning up and the other off their game. I dont know anyone that could of said 'We WILL beat Parra tonight' we all would of thought 'I HOPE we beath parra tonight'. Looking at the run home and with hopefully everyone fit and well in the next 2 weeks i think we can provid some nusence value for some of the top sides.

R17 Mon 9 Jul 7.00pm Parramatta Eels Parramatta Stadium = WIN

R18 Mon 16 Jul 7.00pm Melbourne Storm Olympic Park = Dont think so; LOSS

R19 Sat 21 Jul 7.30pm Sydney Roosters EnergyAustralia Stadium = Need and should put on atleast 40; WIN

R20 Sat 28 Jul 7.30pm New Zealand Warriors Mt Smart Stadium = If we turn up we WIN; WIN

R21 Fri 3 Aug 7.30pm St George-Illawarra Dragons EnergyAustralia Stadium = Should beat them quite comfortably; WIN

R22 Fri 10 Aug 7.30pm Manly Sea Eagles Bluetongue Stadium = The toughest game coming in to the semi; LOSS

R23 17-20 Aug TBA Penrith Panthers EnergyAustralia Stadium = Same as the Roosters should put on 40-50; WIN

R24 24-27 Aug TBA North Queensland Cowboys EnergyAustralia Stadium = Tough game, should win at home; WIN

R25 31 Aug-3 Sep TBA Wests Tigers Telstra Stadium = Last regular season game could really go either way

We currently sit on 18 points and going on all those results, we should finished on either 28 (loss to Tigers) or 30 (win to Tigers) which could give us second chance in the semis.
I had a fiddle with the final calculator and taking out ALL bias :crazy: we will finish 5 or 7 play Broncos or Sea Eagles first week of the finals. Broncos No but playing Manly i think we can beat them on a Saturday night.
All in all with result going the way they should go we can make the 8 and how far we go is up to the team and how well Smith has them drilled. (Dont think we can win the comp tho)
