R7 | Knights 22-28 Eels @ Hunter | Sun 4.00pm

Unless you are playing the Knights, teams seem to have instant form reversals when they play us.

Lol yep. Wouldn't be surprised if we play Hopoate, Sandow, Norman and co back into form on Sunday.

 

[Noname36]

Lol. Too true.

We don't need the halves to find some sort of incredible form just pass the ball and put decent kicks in at the end of each set. That's all really. I'd be happy if they could do that every week. Is it too much to ask??? I don't want Mullo to have to "work" on those things every week as if they are skills he needs to develop after a decade in firsts.

I doubt it would be just Mullen working on these skills again at training lol. A kick is only decent if there are chasers, a pass is only decent if there are blokes in the right positions to take them, etc...and that's been one of our biggest issues in attack. We're playing like a bunch of individuals not a team in attack so of course we need to be working on it. You just just say to Mullen to get your shit together and put in good kicks, etc. A large portion of the poor kicks he and Roberts put in this year were made much worse because there wasn't anyone following through either because they didn't know it was coming or pure laziness.

 

[Noname36]

Surprise, surprise. Looks like Sione will be playing on the bench again from his presser today.

 

[slotmachine]

Sigh.

 

[Burns]

I'm sure Parramatta will be shocked, no, stunned to know that Sione moves into the team!

Surely blokes being paid 500K plus are professional enough to do the little things right most of the time.

For years we've been watching Mullo put up those dainty little chip bombs at the end of sets for which I can see no f**king reason for at all. What's that about???

Sione trained with NSW Cup squad on thursday

 

[Noname36]

Confirmed Sione will play NSW Cup now. Mullo and Tariq are okay.

Hopefully our attack will improve not reshuffling the spine mid game.

 

[Jono078]

Bout time Stone.

Btw, pending other results, if we win by 30 points we'll be 1st again.

 

[Noname36]

Given it'll be raining I'd be ecstatic with a 1 point win.

 

[Swarzey]

Won't be surprising at all if we play well. No coincidence our best game of the season was when our spine remained the same for the entire match. Still disappointing to see Sione drop off but it's best for the team.

 

[The Showstopper]

I would have dropped McManus myself. BJ and Sione is a far more lethal left edge for me. Not Sione's fault how he has been used. In fact it shows Stone is influenced more by the need to fit players in for the sake of it rather than using common sense up until now. When in his career has Sione ever been a utility?

 

[perverse]

Game day! Go Knights!

 

[Apey]

go da nites xoxoxo

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

We have the dumbest supporters in the comp and I am ashamed to be a part of our supporter base.

I still wish I wasn't banned from the mighty Knights page just for the lulz.

 

[Noname36]

:lol:

Wtf did I just read?

 

[Frederick]

I love that page. So many bogans

 

[Joker's Wild]

I had a brief look at her FB page before she took it down/got banhammered

All I can say is wow. Just wow

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

So we won by 3 points and nsw cup and lost by 40 in u20s
