R13 | Knights 22-44 Raiders @ Hunter | Saturday 3.00pm

Just watched the conference and when asked about "besides working hard, what else are you doing to turn it around" Stone said something along the lines of "we should have some key players returning after the byeb"...... It stresses me out that his plan is to wait and see.......... More also mentions Mullen Roberts and smith should be back soon..... But no mention of Rochow.... How long is he out for

 

[Misanthrope]

Week one of my decision not to watch the Knights play.

Vindicated.

 

[Tom155]

Really looking forward to the press conference..... I wonder what rubbish stone will say today

excuses, excuses & more excuses

 

[hennypenny]

That's all he's built on stone excuses, man up for once it pi##ing me off now one town one team one big joke

 

[Whats Doing]

Stone has no f@cking idea. He has learnt nothing under Bennett and whilst I was glad to see the end of Bennett, we have actually gone backwards.

Our defensive structure is abysmal and our individual skill level is poor.

I still stand by my comment a few weeks back that we are not fit enough which is one of the reasons we make so many mistakes because we are too fatigued.

The sooner Stone goes the better as i am sick of his lame excuses.

 

[Card Shark]

If it is any consolation Knights, you play us (sharks) in 2 weeks.

On top of the bye I think you have next week, you'll be back in the mix.

 

[undertaker]

Well, at least we didn't cop 50 which means statistically we're still a chance.

:lol:

So far this season, Gold Coast is the only team that is 'ruled out' of premiership contention

 

[Mr_Knightside]

That press conference was terrible, Stone is a fraud! A guy posing as an NRL coach when he is well out of his depth! He should have been blowing up about the absolute lack of effort and gutlessness in that performance but instead he just blamed injuries to key players. When we have a coach who refused to address the blatantly obvious issues that are in front of everyone's eyes then there is a massive problem.

 

[Swarzey]

:lol:

Exactly!

CHIN UP GUYS! WE CAN STILL DO IT

 

[aqua_duck]

Can't believe I'm saying this but I wish we had Ricky Stuart as coach right now, least the bloke recognised the problems at Canberra and aggressively went into the player market even though Canberra is just about the most undesirable location to attract players

 

[1qaz]

I think Sione is playing on the wrong side of the field. He needs to be given Leilua's spot.

Sione played right centre most of his career.

I did call it before a ball was even kicked off this season.
Sione is still in the best 17, and there is a rep quality player in there.
But he never once screamed superstar potential to me...

 

[Apey]

Found 1qaz

 

[aqua_duck]

I honestly don't know what people are expecting from an 18 year old kid who's playing in a team going like busteds and gets zero early ball because our gameplan is so insistent on using Beau Scott as a battering ram

 

[slotmachine]

he got early ball yesterday in the first half. he was 1-on-1 with croker several times.

 

[Noname36]

Why is 1qaz so obsessed with me?

 

[undertaker]

I didn't watch the game yesterday, but I want to know something: were the Knights players laughing and joking with their opponents again after full-time after getting their butts spanked at home?

 

[undertaker]

Why is 1qaz so obsessed with me?

because he's got nothing more productive to do in his time than to be obsessed with you:lol:

Can't say I saw anything on tv, but they had a quick Jarod Croker interview and that's it.

You did see A few guys talking to a few Raiders but not laughing or anything.

I have to say I've seen this a few times this year and it pisses me off. It is almost like there is no hurt or pain in losing the game. It isn't a f**king social reunion where you catch up with old mates. Heads should be down, not having a laugh...

 

[Zoidberg]

I can't say I'm confident about the Sharks but they're probably the team we're most likely to beat.
