3. Michael Young
4. Luke Grant
5. Luke Quigley

Quigley on the bench must mean he will play if fit.
Steel at 5/8 is good and bad - good because it is about time they gave him a run, and bad because he is a lock forward.

I would be pretty angry if i was Hinton he has held his fullback spot from players like Seage and Cooper but yet with all the first grade fullbacks injured he still cant get a chance at first grade. it wouldnt be too good for his confidence. I guess Hunt didnt to too good last week to get dropped unless he is injured. And great to see Quigley back from injury early hope he goes good. Im guessing we will beat the Bulldogs.

 

[roopy]

We are 10th on the ladder and they are 12th, so we are a good chance.

I was about to hark up then when I seen Steele at 5-8, because its no surprise that i don't rate him. But then noticed in the injurys Hunt has broken his hand (comes back same week as mullen) so If i was dureau id be p*ssed.

 

[knights9]

Knights are winning 4-0 ill post updates as soon as i get them

 

[northey]

thanks for that

 

[thuganomics]

Is Quigley playing?

 

[knights9]

Newcastle 8 - Bulldogs 0

Looks like the Goal kicking is off for us.

 

[knights9]

Is Quigley playing?

Not sure im getting the scores off the radio.

 

[knights9]

8-6 Bulldogs are catching up.

 

[knights9]

10-6 Halftime

 

[knights9]

10-6 with 20 minutes to go so a try could pretty much rap up the game for us.

 

[knights9]

Bulldogs 12- Knights 10 :crazy: we better score.

 

[knights9]

I think we lost i couldnt hear the score.

 

[Roy]

we did 22-16 i think was the final score

 

[single_newy_chick]

how did the boys go? did anyone see the game? any outstanding players? any poor players??

 

[Jobdog]

lost 24-16. No real standouts, although Hinton was back to somwhere near his best.

 

[single_newy_chick]

oh thanks jobjod, glad hinton is getting better, i was getting a bit worried about him, but i suppose if i kept getting shafted for first grade i would be off form aswell.

Do you know how Steele went at 5-8?

Might do the boys a favour having a week off.

 

[Jobdog]

oh thanks jobjod

Who's that??? ;-)

Steele didn't take my attention that much, so he mustn't of been too good. The boys just looked one-dimensional in attack and it was prob Walshy's worst game in PL.

 

[single_newy_chick]

oh sorry Job doG, my bad

Yeah im probably going to get in alot of strife for saying this but I don't think he is playing that good in PL, he plays really good in flegg but not in PL. I'm not sure if its cos he is too small or what. Not sure how he went in the Under 19's though.
