Round 1 - Knights Again

[snout]

Me saying Brown could be gone after round 1, gives Buzz at least some story to run with, we know he comes in here looking for a story

Wests leagues own the Knights.

They also own half of Newcastle.
This comes from decades of success on and off the field.
They accept defeat like buzz accepts a day off the sauce.

Brown was resigned last year on an open-ended deal. Job is his as long he continues to meet KPIs.

After too many seasons on the bottom of the comp and having been given a team which is competitive l reckon one of those KPIs might involve being in a certain ladder position after maybe 6- 8 rounds.

I reckon he wouldve been reminded of this yesterday in the shed post game.

I reckon the gap between the top end of the ladder and the knights wont be allowed to get too great to claw back by about week 6.

I reckon Danny Buderus might be waiting in the wings as caretaker til a more proven coach is chosen.

I reckon West leagues didnt see yesterday as 'just a trial' and brownie didnt sleep much last night.

Will be a lot tougher at Newie in front of nearly 30k....trial results mean shit...just good for sorting a few combos and blowing the cobwebs out.

Was played at a decent intensity for a trial game, we really should win this game - there's no excuses not to.

They've done that before, haven't they?

Bedsy has a Fox League gig now. Dunno if he'd give that up for another temp gig.

Agree.

 

[Maccas4177]

interestingly, Knights are currently listed as favourites.

Perhaps it’s forbidden in case it relates to masturbation.

Or Asian whore.

 

[Frenzy.]

Yeah but i wouldn't dare repeat what they were doing....

Will you release the video?

 

[txta2]

With Watson at fullback, Sharks 30+

 

[Card Shark]

He was wrapped as 1 of their best 2 players in the trial...I thought he looks ordinary.

Mate, we live in BoganVilla. What other NRL team has “nanna’s” as key, respected supporters? The Bronco’s nanna’s? The Storm nanna’s? The Roosters nanna’s? Doesn’t exist cause it’s a sick joke. Not with The Knights.

I could never parochially support these kaarnts (as a local) with such a gronk-arse, dumb kaaarnt culture supporter base. f**k me - they hang shit on Cronulla up here FFS.

f**ken embarrassing on a national scale. Being a knuckle-dragging bogan is a sense of pride & locally expected. See Windale, Gateshead, Hamilton South for some outstanding humans.

Dumbest move ever with Ponga at 6 . Lucky we have them early.

Stupidly early move. Might get a few highlights a game but he’s now the most obvious target in defence. Should have stayed at fb for a few more seasons to bulk up.

 

[Card Shark]

Sure is gunna be a target, don’t know what hit him in 10 days time.

Just get the big lads running at him all day. Anybody got any idea who the defenders on his side are?

 

[txta2]

Change my mind, make it 40+

 

[Card Shark]

I actually think it will be an absolute flogging.

As a Newcastle local, I used to dread going to “Marathon” as we’d always lose.

Now, I think they are our bunnies. We will win by more than the 24 the other day.

Asterisk next to Segs in case he does indeed get forced out, if so I’d bring in Kyle off the bench.

I think we will win too but don't underestimate the power of the big crowd they will have
