Rn23 v Newcastle team list thread

[Gazzamatta]

Will Smith or Hoffman in the 1 shirt Id reckon.

 

[jono]

Hoff
Definitely

 

[forward pass]

Didn't Brian Smith deliberately make us play with 12 men for a small stint during game back in 2001?

Didn't we play Newcastle with only 10 players at one time - thanks to Bill Harrigan?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yep, first week of finals v warriors. Think it was the final 20 mins or so... we were up by about 40 points from memory

Four years later we also racked up a huge lead in week one of the finals before clocking off. Our next performance was two weeks later against the Cowboys and we were unprepared.

And they always put shit games at 6pm Friday.
Ive watched one this year

Penrith game no doubt......

Penrith vs Knights up in Byron bay.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I look the look of this speculation about the side.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Tim Mannah's 200th game. How about a moratorium on bagging him for this week. Hopefully he rips in and he has plenty of friends too.

 

[TheParraboy]

This is close to the stupidest suggestion I've ever heard.

Fox would probably drop their funds by about a 1/4 to the NRL I'd say.

yeah my thoughts as well

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

I think we should play all the games at the same time, get the old "around the grounds" updates happening again. And one team each week has to play on pogo sticks.

Mr 85% lol.

 

[Lemon Squash]

If you want to go like for like with French then Will Smith would be the obvious choice.

Hoffman would be the safe bet though (if fit).

 

[oldmancraigy]

I dunno. It could explain the Knights jumping out to a 30-0 lead in the last game of the season though.

You lunatic. That never happened.

It was a 24-0 lead.

Think it's always been understated as to how big a loss Hindmarsh and Fui were that year.

Sure did I was at that game. So dumb!

He said "close to"'.

You had your chance merkin. Why didn't you jump on the field and 'steer the boys around the park'?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

He said "close to"'.

I thought I'd have a go at getting closer. But now that I think about it, with a bit of practice a Pogo stick might be too much of an advantage.

 

[hindy111]

yeah my thoughts as well

There are 8 games. Having two at the same time would make 6.
Viewers can still watch. Is it that hard to not check score? When fox had the two 730 games you would chose and then flick over to the other at 930.

The Friday at 6 and saturday 3 are shit times.

Alternatively maybe a game on Friday at 6.50 and 8.30 kick offs may work

 

[hindy111]

Who is home to watch fox at 6pm on friday or 3pm on a saturday?
Id say less then at 930 that night. Only devoted fans would watch this slot and devoted fans would also watch 930 replay.
