I have to say peoples we got a f**king win, lets be atleast a tad positive about that even if it was sloppy, would you rather we got beat by 40?
Patterson you need to be dropped. Taia you need to be dropped. Taufua you need to be dropped.
Why is stone persisting with these 3. They have hopeless for many weeks now!

In the wet, Mullen didn't use his running game nearly enough. Gidley was hopeless apart from THAT kick and our forwards showed less leg drive than our outside backs...
Stone is proving to be like Hagan, except I believe hagan actually had the odd set play!
BIHK, mate I'm no defender of Stone but you are kidding aren't you.
Taia has been injured but still holds his head high and I'll argue that Patto has been perhaps the best forward this year.

I must say that James Mcmannus is one tough bastard. He has copped some unbelievable hits since his return. He gets up, tastes the blood and asks for more. I'm a fan! Should be more of it.
Is it just me or does anyone else think Ben Rogers is the worst 5/8 to ever play for the knights? Even much worse then Sean Rudder I think.

i can't believe the pasting you guys are giving the team tonight.
look, we were dreadful with the ball. that much is obvious... but were any of you expecting different? what stood out to me tonight, above all else, was our commitment in defence. that was easily our most committed game of the season, even over the dogs win in round 1. as sh*t as we were, the boys DID dig deep... and funnily enough they were rewarded for that by the football gods.
we're really missing a metre eater or 2 in our team... both of our second rowers are more like backs... and run sideways far too often looking to create opportunities. both of them need to pull their heads in a bit and do a bit of running in a straight line. they both had really bad nights with their hands, probably as a result of trying to push the pass and the offload rather than tuck it under and go forward more than anything else. they try and create a try off every play... and are impatient. they are both also very skillful players and if coached properly they will shine (or if the front row does their job better, tbh).
i'm not trying to underplay the fact that we were shocking in attack, but that's really the least of my concerns. i know we can score points. i've seen it plenty of times this year. what i didn't know is whether we could dig in deep and defend. honestly, we showed tonight that we can. Parra were ordinary with the ball in ahnd too, but they did have their chances and we turned them away. aside from the drop ball, i thought their forward pack was pretty bloody good tonight.
i thought our commitment was excellent tonight... and i was really proud of the effort in spite of the ineptitude with the ball.
Yeah sucked in Tahu, you gutless merkin.
What's the bet his pathetic little tanty tonight will somehow be turned into the Knights players being racist against him...
"Many thought that last night's outburst from Tahu was a result of the buildup over the last week. However The Daily Telegraph can reveal that after a tackle, Knights player Barney Gumble accused Tahu of being 'soft', in relation to his exile of the NSW Origin camp a week ago. This condoning of what Andrew Johns's racist comments by Gumble set Tahu off, as the final straw that broke the camel's back."
The next day's headlines:
"Knights Still Racist"
