Match Discussion: Round 17 vs Penrith @ BlueBet Stadium, Penrith / Dharug

[slotmachine]

The performance of a bottom 4 side.

Gamble is awful. So is Gags.

 

[Loose Cannon]

I’m not sure we’d beat our own reserve grade team.

 

[Zoidberg]

The last 2 weeks honestly feel like they don’t want to win.

 

[Jono078]

These players don't need any pats on the backs tonight.

They need to be shown who their opposing player was and how they were out-enthused and out-skilled by someone on a fraction of their pay.

The players should give up on the season. If you couldn't beat last weeks Roosters or this weeks Panthers then what hope are they.

I think our season is about to end in very ugly fashion.

 

[perverse]

The players should give up on the season.

Oh they definitely have already.

 

[Wizardman]

Holbrook got punted for less. Holbook deserved it...but is not doing as bad of a job as O'Brien is doing. The Knights need to look elsewhere...starting tomorrow.

Edwards is a freak, he looks like he hasn't played and could go another 80 minutes

 

[Jono078]

Looking at the below you'd think we played them at full-strength. Honestly.

 

[Jono078]

Also what pisses me off, if anyone watched the pre-game coverage, Ivan Cleary was so f**king confident his mob would get the job done today.

Imagine knowing your reserves are good enough to beat a full strength NRL team.

Meanwhile we're here hoping a reserve can step up and HOPE they don't disgrace themselves and become another Crossland.

Adam Elliott with 13 missed tackles tonight and 1 ineffective. How do you manage that playing in the middle?

Doesn't count any of the ones where Sorenson and co just clean ran straight around him either.

 

[slotmachine]

The numbers for all the forwards bar croker and frizz are embarrassing

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

I didn't see much of Croker or Thomson. Needed to see more.

NRL.com are doing O'Brien a huge favour and playing the melbourne game over the top of the press conference on the website.

Probably not worth the bandwidth, anyway.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Not going to bother with the press conference. I think it'll piss me off more than the game itself lol.

 

[drizzy drake]

Didn’t watch the game. Any positives? Besides AOB being in step closer to f**king off. Or just a grim afternoon all around?

We had a 100% conversion rate. That's just about the only positive I took from that game.

Well, there's now only 9 games left until our season is over?

Just because I hate myself.

The knights have scored 57 tries this year and Dom Young has scored or assisted 32% of them.

Dom Young will be a rooster next year.
