Joey biffed the ball at his head during one game ... two guys that definitely didn't get along.

Don't start. Billy does a great job. His opinion should be respected, you have been in the same boat as well mate.

Me too but the big 4 Hooker , 5/8 , 1/2back and f/back would let the reserves down as those 4 don't come anywhere near the 1st's big 4 imo.

Yeah, I never realised how few very good fullbacks and hookers we've had, whereas we've had lots of really good backrowers and centres/wings. We've also had some pretty great coaches, feels strange to comfortably leave out coaches like Warren Ryan, Wayne Bennett and Alan McMahon.
The other teams we could pick are 'best team of former Knights players now playing elsewhere' and 'best team of Newcastle juniors never to have played for the Knights', although it might make us depressed about some of the talent we've lost haha.

Your side is almost identical to mine turtonrd ... I had Tahu over Gordon ... Peden on the bench for Glanville to start ... and you made me realise OMG I FORGOT SAM STEWART!!!
I'd have him on my bench over Parsons.

How could you forget Slammin' Sam? He's even a Kiwi! He finished up with the Knights before I was even born, but he pretty much was the Knights in the early years, so he gets a spot.

To be fair to Jackson though IMO I thought he really made a difference in the 97GF when he came on. He was getting out of dummy half, taking Manlys markers out of play and providing the forwards with quality ball when it was most needed. I agree with Billy that he didn't live up to reputation but delivered the goods when it mattered most. Like and dare I say it, Sean Rudder in 01GF. IMO his best ever performance in Knights colours.

Brad Godden i thought was a good F/B but he was put to the wing so Robbie Odavis could go to F/B and a couple of weeks after that i was talking to Robbie and Glen Miller down on the lake they were going sking and i asked him why they changed and he said that Brads hands just were'nt good enough so he was given the job .
In my opinion it was a great move for the club as Robbie had great hands and skill and was a champion ...Also you could'nt have met 2 nicer guys they did'nt know my son and i from a bar of soap but asked us if we would like to go skiing with them .
Pity i had to say no as i had to get my son back to his mums .
Alan McMahon got this club going on sheer toughness but for me Mal Reilly was the one i met him twice and i reckon you could break an iron bar on him and he would'nt have noticed he was a tough hard man but quick to put his hand out and say hi. Kinda reminded me of my dad...

You can disagree without insulting, it's not that hard.

As i have said that a few times before i should live by my word .....To be honest if we all thought the same thing not only would'nt we have forums but the world would be a bloody boring place ...
Good onya Ethan.

I'm in my 50's and i've spent my entire adult life working with maximum security prisoners and in the field of forensic psychiatry. I've literally been abused, insulted and threatened on a daily basis by people who would actually do me harm if they could.
I barely notice any abuse on the net, but if I do, the only effect it will have is to make me think a lot less of the abuser.
If you think you can change my opinion with anything other than logical argument, you are mistaken.
