Couple of switch off periods, but the bodies in motion during that half is not our normal M.O.

Good to see.
But why?

Why has it taken until Round 20 for them to play like this? On the back of a disruptive week too.

You legit cannot pick what Knights team will turn up. Is the only reason we haven't faded yet because they had a solid lead and are fighting for it? If It got to 6-6 after 20 minutes today would we have crumbled?

Anyway it's nice and I'm enjoying it! Really hope we go on with it and don't have a Raiders-like collapse in the second half.

It’s the Newcastle Paradox. There are no answers, apparently.

Always our consistent players who have shit games when the rest of the team decides to turn up.

Not a fan of sending Brailey back out
Yeah I think if Hunt didn't make it back you could have made an argument for it, but we probably could have given him a rest here. Still, it shows our cards - we're playing to win.

Why do we look so knackered immediately after half time? What's going on there?
