Knights!!

[Newcroosters]

Buderus taking out Slater.

Ah yes, didn't think it was a shoulder though, probably a get square from earlier when Newcastle got penalised for a shoulder on Teflon billy. I thought the refereeing was fairly even tonight,

[fletch]

Newcastle's ball movement in the first half was exceptional, they will test our fringes much like Manly did, must say I would have preferred playing the Storm they look tired/busted, the Knights look like this seasons momentum team much like the Eeels in 2009, us in 2010, Warriors in 2011.

[Tommy Smith]

The Storm do look tired but I was worried about their ability to be clinical in the attacking 20.

They were 12 nil up before blinking last time we played them.

The Knights are tough but this is the end of their run imo.

[Chook Norris]

I feel more nervous against the knights for some reason. They spread the ball very well

And I hope our players aren't as overly confident as OP..

Of course they won't be.

It's a luxury I can afford that won't dare cross their minds.

One thing evident tonight was refs too afraid to piss Wayne Bennett off by awarding Storm a penalty in front of the sticks to level the game.

Much like playing against Souths we will need to be a much better side to win the game.

lol.. so now knights are favoured by the refs, when a couple of hrs ago souths and melbourne were the teams who get all the favours.

Knights forward pack is incredibly experienced, littered with players who have finals/Origin/big game experience. It's their halves and centres that are lacking big game time. Mullen has one Origin and a couple of finals, while Roberts has nothing.

I sense a lot of excuse preparation in the event we lose.

Some very important match ups...
SKD V Leilua
Jennings v Gagai

The one that worries me is Tupou v Uate.

Tyrone Roberts is inexperienced but my god he's an impressive kid. I'd take him over Adam Reynolds 7 days a week.

Bj looked good tonight, but I think Robinson will test his reads in defence. I think he will be targeted with decoys and multiple runners. Smash his confidence early.

[Andrew Walker]

Newcastlle played very well Good ball movement Some nice set plays defended tough and hard If Newcastle repeat this next week then we must bring our top game to win

Tyrone played well above his weight

Where did I say Storm?

Anyone with half a clue knows Bennett has the refs running scared.

[zebono2]

Lets hope the game is not as quick as that 2nd half I don't think our big boys will stay strong with a quick game like that

Lol really?

Surely a piss take.

We'll be fit and firing for 80 min.

As a fan I'm allowed to be confident.

I was scared of the Storm but we match up brilliantly vs the Knights with our relentless speed and aggression.

The players with Robbo will be the ultimate professionals.

Of cause it was LOL
I have never see the boys so fit they will run rings around Newcastle if they wanna play a fast game

Who ever wins first 20 mins will be the winner next week. And if we get in front I back our halves to ice the game better than knights could if roles reversed. But first 20 we have to do what Cronulla did to us in round 24 or what ever it was.
