I can't remember the last time I was so pumped for a game. I understand the Dragons will be angry after their loss to the Raiders, but for some reason I still think we might possibly be able to pull off something special for Simmo.

GO KNIGHTS! I'm already here watching the Toyota Cup game. More like smashed up Datsuns. Dragons up 22-6 at Half Time.

Knights are indeed wearing the heritage jerseys. Though I'm not sure what the light blue socks are for.

They've just shown a tribute video for Simmo on the big screen.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh sh*t!!!!

Bloody hell they tried hard but just got a little impatient at the end!!! Really feel for simmo and Coops... They deserved to be sent out winners!!

Be a few tears around the ground I bet for sure.

Needed to score in that 10 mins before half time when we were carving them up the middle...

Besides the super soft try to Creagh, the boys really had a go and can hold their heads up high. We bombed a few opportunites to get in the lead though didn't we?

Yeah, when we got back to 22-18 we went back into our shell and played up the middle instead of on the fringes which is where we got our 18 points.

Anyway, the boys played extremely well and should have their heads held up high with the "old boys".

Creagh's try was absolutely embarassing. The original attempt, the second attempt and Naquima's "attempt" at stopping him were pathetic.

To Wes' credit, he improved out of sight after that and was MUCH better than McDonnell (is that really that difficult though?) in defence but especially in attack.

Gidley needs to go back to fullback ASAP. I'm basing that on Gidley's game as well as McDonnell's.

Tolar is so so so bad. I hate really giving it to any of our players but tonight was really the last straw for me, he is just so slow and offers no go-forward whatsoever. I can't handle watching him jog up to the line and then get bent back time and time again. He must be the softest front rower in the competition.

On a positive note, Fa'aoso seems to be hitting his straps again and is best to his damaging best. Mullen is also in great form and pulled off enough awesome kick tonight.

Disappointing night but what can you do.

Con Mika on the inside for that last try just EPITOMISES that this is an 80 min game - His effort was ATROCIOUS - Just watching again - ALL their tries - Creagh's - - soft up the middle - NIGHTGIRLS - What the f**k was Mcdonnell doing - DIFFERENT GAME
