Round 10 | Knights 12-32 Cowboys @ Hunter | Sat 7.30pm

[perverse]

yeah, House needs to work on his attacking game, there's no question about that. he's valuable just as he is, but he could be elite status if he became dangerous with the ball in his hand.

 

[Big Tim]

I am in no way suggesting that he be dropped, he is far too valuable to our team, and I have a serious man crush on him. Just want to see him reach his potential in attack, which would also improve our strike weapon in the process.

 

[Yosh]

Roopy has Dureau
Pers has Taia
Yosh has SBW

What other man crushes are there? Who's the dude that loves Hilder?

I am House's biggest fan (just ask my wife)

 

[Yosh]

Lol Big Tim

So that makes:
Roopy & Dureau
Pers & Taia
Yosh & SBW
Tim & House

Seems the majority of us like backrowers... There is a little Ricky Stuart in all of us....

You take a swipe at my man Jimmy Mac and Ill cut you, Ill cut you baaaaaaaad

I'll claim Uate. Me and Roopy pushed his wagon before 98% of Knights fans even knew who he was but unlike Roopy i always believed that his pros far outweighed his cons and he would be a first grade sensation and an Origin player within 2 years. I was the only one pushing for him to be fast tracked into our side at the expense of Vuna or McManus back in 2008. Perhaps i was wrong with my early Uate agendas but i'm glad to see him go onto become the games best winger.

I believe I was his biggest fan... I still am but people think I love SBW more than anything so I put yself as a SBW fan (also in the hope that one day he'll join us). If I had to be totally honest.... I'm a huge Josh Perry fan... I used to love him wind up and bring the ball back on a barn storming run and then knock out some defenders before offloading to Robbie O... Then he'd give away 3 penalties and do nothing for the rest of the game...

 

[Frederick]

I'm a Faaoso fan

 

[RABK]

Yosh i'd be near certain mine and roopys weekly Uate lower grades discussions was the only way you ever knew he existed.

You're a bandwagon Uate fan, i was Uate biggest fan before it was cool to be his fan because he couldn't catch a ball or make a tackle back in Flegg. I'll admit that everyone is a huge Uate fan now but back in 2005/2006 i was getting blasted in the NRL forum for talking up some nuffy and i certainly didn't see any other Newcastle fans in there talking him up in the 'future stars' thread. I seem to remember most, if not all, members wanting Uate to fix his defence and ball handling before getting a FG jersey.

I said give the kid a chance, a red hot go on the wing in first grade and he'll be a star. He had too much brilliance to let defensive flaws negate his potential. I felt his flaws wearn't mental or physical - more so confidence issues and getting a first grade shot might give him the confidence he needed to excel.

Way to be condescending you bastard:x!!!

Sure I only saw him when he hit first grade but I knew as soon as he took his first run, he'd be a superstar.

You've made yourself a very dangerous enemy RABK!!! [shakes fist with mean look on his face]

Lol anyways. I love Uate. I'm gonna name my son after him; Akuate

 

[RABK]

Uates mine, back off bitch.

Haha, na you can be his biggest fan.

Still plenty of great Knights to choose from. I'm going to start a fanclub for the backrow Gods of the club - Andrew Price, Todd Lowrie, Cameron Ciraldo, Reegan Tanner, Kirk Reynoldson and Blake Mueller.

 

[Jono078]

What about some love for the backs?

Craig Hall, George Carmont, Paul Franze, Todd Polglase, Shannon McDonnell.

Equally as prestigious as the backrowers club.

 

[voltron]

i'll take buderus
=)

and segeyaro is out of the cows
is that a good thing? or a meh thing?

 

[Jono078]

Id say a great thing.

That's honestly the biggest nuffy side i can come up with from the last 15 years. Well done if you can remember every one of these guys. They were all hopeless. Guys like Hall, Carmont and Polglase actually had some decent games for us.

 

[Charlie124]

Newcastle always seem to play well against us so im not expecting any different in this one. However id like to think we've got a far better team this year than any other time we've played them, and aside from 20mins against souths, we're playing pretty well at the moment.

Ill tip us by 20 odd but the game will be a closer contest than that, just expecting us to outmuscle your forward pack towards the back end of the game and run a few in.

 

[Yosh]

You guys have an amazing pack. Very jealous. Gotta get Tinks to buy us one as well.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Neil Sweeny went alright, didnt he get 3 tries on debut? In saying that if I was a winger next to Midley or Boozy with Joey feeding them the ball I reckon I could score 3 tries on debut as well.

Craig hall was a solid player, plus he was a RAAFie so he is alright in my books.

 

[Rod]

What about Trent Estatheo? Was that his name?
