[Zoidberg]

Wouldn't it be nice to have both Roosters halves playing origin this week.

 

[Frederick]

May god have mercy on us all

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

There is a chance that we won't have Boyd, gagai, Leilua, macmanus and snowden.

It will be a miracle if we get within 40 points

 

[undertaker]

At least it will be good to hear Fletch and Hindy call the game. Im sure they're going to get a huge kick out of watching our pathetic style of play. Would've even been better to have heard some of the terminology Roy and HG would've come up with for our team

 

[Swarzey]

Watch us get close, put in a good dig for 60 minutes and find another way to beat ourselves.

Really, the only reason why I'm watching this is to laugh at The Myth being out done by Mullo and Fletchy and Hindy calling it.

 

[Rod]

Snowy gonna miss 2-3 weeks so we won't have him, Boyd or Scott. Don't think Gagai or McManus will be picked. Roosters will only be missing Jennings and Tupou.

Prop stocks looking super low now.

 

[Jono078]

Under 20s will hopefully be interesting at least. We're on a 3 game losing streak and the Roosters on a 4 game winning streak.

 

[macavity]

will they hit triple figures?

question valid for both score and crowd.

 

[Misanthrope]

If we restrict them to less than 40, I will consider that a win.

 

[1qaz]

So who plays fullback this week? It would be good to see Wayne give Gagai a run there and hopefully play him into some form. He would probably go with Gidley though. The season is over and if Boyd is leaving, this week is a good opportunity to prepare for the future with with Gagai fullback and Clydesdale starting. Gidley to centre? Who knows where to put him :x

Gidley to NSW cup. I'd go Gagai to FB, McManus centre and Mamo wing. Would love to see Mamo at fullback but don't think having to tackle the likes of SBW one on one in the backfield will do much for his development.

 

[Noname36]

Is Mamo even fit? If BJ is fit id go Gagai at fullback, McManus centre, Mamo wing and let them swap a bit during the game. If BJ is injured McManus to centre, Ross/Minto/whoever to fullback. I wouldn't mind seeing Mamo get a run at fullback during the game...but I can see a disaster happening and it setting him back 6 months.

I'm waiting for the team line up for the Lols in the forwards. I think this might be the week we see Newton.

And with that, the death of our season will be complete

 

[otori]

I managed to get tickets to this game shortly before the season began and I thought we wouldn't be the mighty Plodcastle. On the plus side, it's free corporate box so beer and pies to drown my dismay

Ladies and gentlemen, the return of Clint Newton.

 

[Noname36]

Even putting aside Mantellato, Gidley and Houston in the second row, there is one thing that makes this the saddest day for the Newcastle Knights.

Clint f**king Newton.

 

[jason taylor]

All you guys are missing now is the return of Timana Tahu.
To think you guys made it deep into the finals last season.

 

[Noname36]

I'd happily have Timana in the side if it meant Mantelato was out.
