NRLW

[Apey]

Another Kick-off disaster.

Not for the first time this year lol. How do we have these games where we just can't field restarts.

Might as well just volunteer for a game of try scorers kick.

 

[Apey]

Very good first half from us. Great defence, doing what we need to do. Hopefully they put in again for the second half.

McEwan has been good on debut.

Southwell having one of those days with the boot where she looks like the best goalkicker in the whole club.

McEwan has been good on debut.

Yep, 11 runs for 144m and 9 tackle breaks. With Albert Jones off to the warriors next year I think McEwen will make that spot her own, hopefully her brother can mirror that.

I don't know much about the NRLW so just asking but is Upton the best player in the league? She is amazing.

I'd say so.

Do we get a home final?

 

[PhilGould]

Need the Eels to beat the Roosters to keep the home final. Either way it'll be Knights v Roosters next week, just a matter of where.

Eels can still technically make the finals with a 35+ win so they should come out firing regardless. Roosters top priority will probably be making sure everyone's still healthy next week.

Edit: Actually scratch that, the Roosters could still jump up to 1st with a 21+ point win, in which case we'd play Brisbane in Brisbane.

Do we get a home final?

Only if the roosters lose tomorrow, I believe

Who's her brother?

 

[PhilGould]

Jermaine McEwen, just upgraded into the top 30 yesterday

Pathways strength on show as key juniors re-sign

The nib Newcastle Knights pathways systems continue to produce high quality products, with another three talented youngsters re-signed and promoted into the club’s National Rugby League top squad, on the back of NSW Cup debuts and NSW U19 selection this year.

I wonder if she might be even better this year as well. Some of the ball-playing and option taking she has in her game now is really high level stuff. Faking inside or a big cutout ball and then throwing short to put runners in holes, looping in out the back at the last second etc.

She had some of that in her game in previous years but feels like she's taken that aspect to another level.

You could make a claim she’s the best ever, certainly in the NRLW era, 4 premierships, dally m medal, back to back Karen Murphy medals

The best thing about yesterday's win was making that bitch Jo Barrett shut the f**k up. I hate whenever she calls our games cause she dick rides whoever we're playing so f**king hard. No doubt she's still butthurt about us beating the titans last year

Probably the highest footy IQ before getting into her physical abilities. Higher than most of our boys.

When she made that break yesterday, she started running in-field to draw the fullback in and still threw a great pass in the other direction. Not easy to do.

She makes great plays every game but that was maybe her best of the year.

Yep and the pass was on the money, we saw KP throw a similar pass to Gags (which still should’ve been caught) but it was a much easier pass and it was probably 6 inches lower than it should’ve been, Tamika threw it the opposite side to which she was running at speed, very little margin for error and was right on the chest.
Tamika used to be primarily a ball runner but she’s now also arguably the best ball player in the game especially close to the line.

She’s is the worst commentator in the game. Offers nothing.

Revenge time for the Tarsha Gale Cup final with the HNWP team making the GF against the Steelers.
