R11 | Knights 18-31 Broncos @ Hunter | Monday 7.00pm

[The Showstopper]

rip Taylor's form at the Roos says a lot about how clueless this club is. Taylor must be one of the best player developers in the game. I would love to see him coach the club right now. He shits on Stone for talent. Oh and we also had Trent Robinson on the books. People forget when Smith decided to walk we were playing well.

Stone took Newcastle as far as Smith did so "playing well" is pretty much invalid.

The Knights were running in 4th when Smith accepted the offer from Easts. 2009 was truly a great season that deserved much more than being eliminated by the Dogs in Week 1...

why did Randall go into the halves after Gids was injured is the question I want Stone to answer. He controlled us well going forward. Redman is the utility so why did he go to dummy half. Absolutely inexcusable to weaken the area we actually competed with them in for the first 30 mins. He was countering McCulloch. Given he can kick from dummy half there was no need to put him in the playmaker role.

I agreed with his decision.

I agreed with his decision.

Your right to do so. I felt it destroyed our momentum. Not saying we would have won but Tyler got us moving forward and straight through the middle.

The Knights are mentally weak.
I don't know how many times the Knights after scoring points and being on top the following set they make a schoolboy error. As soon as that forward pass from dummyhalf was called, I knew it was game over for the Knights.

That's exactly how I felt too. It's weird that such a small incident could spark such a monumental collapse, and even weirder that you can see it coming so clearly. But that's us, we're a basket case and you really can identify the moments that are going to rock our confidence to the core - even when we're winning.

Opposition coaches must lick their lips when it's time to play us. You really just have to get your own team to play smart and not too flashy. The result will come if you don't lose the plot as much as we inevitably will.
