Gotta be a sin bin soon if they keep giving away the same penalties all the time, but we'll never see it.

I've seen enough to remind me what has turned me into a casual rugby league fan and why i prefer watching quite a few other sports now. The refereeing is just abhorrent and has been for years. It's not just Knights games, even in mutual games i often switch off due to the refs destroying the game.

That and the knights been perennial top 8 gatekeepers who sure as shit will always turn their most important games into their worst performances with errors galore.
 

Bring it home Knights

I wasn't able to watch the game, but I did listen to it. It wouldn't surprise me if the pressure of a massive game got to them. Poor execution can at times be put down to not handling the pressure. I hope I'm wrong.

Well we were missing our two front rowers. I think we did okay but we're still a SBWesque player away from being a serious force.

Thought Houston went okay... We need more creative forwards though... Could have really used Cuthbo today.

I come away from the game feeling encouraged if we are fortunate enough to come across them again in the finals.

We'll learn from this, be more clinical next time and have Snowden and Mason for the full match hopefully.

Doesn't mean shit if the refs kill you.

In the dressing room after the game, WB just walkinh around, doesn't even look all that angry or upset. A Hasler or Bellemy would have made some of their players cry.

Well we basically gifted them the game by doing dumb things at crucial times. I thought we were well in it which is why the scoreline is annoying.

Roosters discipline is absolute garbage, don't know why someone didn't get binned when we were peppering their line. What's the point of receiving 5 penalties on their line if there's no consequences for them? I thought we didn't get the 50/50 calls in general as well which is very frustrating for a game at home.

But yeah, execution. Knock-ons and silly play's like Scott's offside from the kick.

Taking the 2 while being down 8 against the best defensive team in the competition = game over. Even if we had managed to get down to that end of the field again and score a try, if we had missed the conversion that penalty goal would still have been f**king useless. Amateur hour, I hope that call didn't come from Wayne.
