[Raider_69]

Start winning a few more games before makin such outlandish comments. They could be good, but they havent shown anything this year, and i know you guys have had injuries. But if these players are as good as you say why weren you carving it up last year and this year?
This is not a bagging. So dont get to angry just some friendly criticism.

BTW great you guys finally got one, congrats.

Raider 69, im not the one to argue, but its quite easy to see you dislike the knights .

So its gonna take one HELL of a reason for you to start 'going' for them.

i havnt nor will i ever try and hide my intense hatred for newcastle, and alot of it steams from crap such as the media and johns turning the Dally M's into a farce

you obviously havent read enough of my 27k of posts
im all about credit where its due ;-), a gutsy effort by the knights this week but it was only penrith and against the roosters next week, without johns and buderus maybe more, they will ge pumped IMO

I would never under estimate the power of a team who has been losing like the KNights and now have a win under their belt, also given the fact of all the changes happening with them they are bound to be ganing in confidence

Idiot. Watch some football before you make idiot claims. Aside from the fact that several ESL backrowers would walk right into run on sides in most squads down here (Peacock, for example)- you also don't give enough credit to Simpson and Newton. Hell, Abraham was on track to play Origin last year before he got injured playing for Country.

Tell you what, I'll go watch some ESL and you can watch some NRL because you plainly have no idea what you're talking about. I mean dead set, your team wins ONE game by the skin of their teeth against an out of form team and suddenly your back line becomes World Class? As someone else elequently put it, get your hand off it.

dead set... no one is saying our backline is world class, but our BACKROW is in the top half of the comp. Simmo is an origin player, Newto may well be one day and is improving with every game, and Abes and Reynoldson cover lock very very well - Abes was on track to play origin before breaking his leg.... Reynoldson may be on joke money but he isn't awful...

Our backrow (and Craig Smith) has been our one shining light and have dominated alot of big name players for stretches.

Its injuries and our terrible outside backs that let us down. Tries against us are scored out wide almost without fail- Carmont lets in 2-3 minimum per game, and it is no coincidence that teams with decent outside backs give us a touch up, whilst the Panthers (with centres nearly as crap as ours) was an even contest.

as for the ESL thing, have you ever seen a game? Their top 3-4 teams are as good as ours, and I would kill to have the likes of Peacock, Fielden, Sculthorpe, McGuire or Senior in my team.

as you put it so 'eloquently'.... get your hand off it.

If you haven't yet noticed, half our back-row has been injured long-term. Abraham, Reynoldson are both gone for the season and Newton was suspended until round 12 or something. The bac-row we've been fielding looks like:

11. Steve Simpson
12. Reegan Tanner
13. Todd Lowrie.

That back-row struggles. But not our full-strength one.
