I’m going to say the sentence all Wests fans fear

‘We should win this’

If you can score say more than 18, you will. I don't see that many points in the Knights. They are so poor.

On top of that we've been good for several weeks and finally got a win. It's also at one of our home grounds.

Hastings is a massive loss as well.

Hope you were crossing your legs, when you wrote this?

 

[Das Hassler]

I'm guessing Peachey at lock....if so a lot will depend on how he gets out of bed Sunday morning...and I hope Obrien hangs onto his job till at least Monday

 

[Ned Kelly]

Shooting for 2 in a row. Daunting task.

 

[Tiger Ted]

I’d be more confident if we were playing against a top 8 team

3 in a row!

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

If Hastings was playing I'd tip the tigers 13+ but have had to go 1 - 12. The energy and commitment we've shown over the 2 weeks should see us home. Another big one from Madden.

 

[Tigerm]

Can anyone give a rundown on Tom Freebairn?

He will be the 6th to debut this season, we’ll done to him.

 

[Jono078]

Expect To'a to at least get a double too.

 

[WA Tiger]

The moon is in the “Waxing Gibbous” phase on Sunday..Nearing the full moon…I believe that means we kick butt

I dont want to be down on the bloke who I have no doubt has worked his arse off to get his debut, but I have never, ever seen anything in him thats says anything more then career reserve grader. If I was to summarise him he is a smaller version of Matt Eisenhuth. Small for a forward, not quick, no passing game that Ive seen, not a strong line runner and average defender. At 27, it blows my mind that he's getting a run.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

Re the Knights.

How good is it that the Fox Sports guy is giving it to the coach and the club this week and not the Tigers.

No Klemmer, thanks coach.

feels weird

If you guys can't beat us in the diabolical state we're in at the moment....

Trying to put the mocker on us, won’t work, we’ve got our issues.

 

[Ned Kelly]

Even without Klemmer and Ponga Newcastle still have a stronger team on paper.
I'm not convinced we have this one in the bag. I think it might be close with the officials finding a way to hand it to the Knights.

Yes, it depends on what WT’s team turns up
