NRL Elimination Final - Cowboys Vs Knights - 7:50pm Saturday 14 September - Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville

[Lefty]

After looking like we couldn’t make the 8 after the loss against the Sharks, we have managed to make the playoffs.

Will we beat the Cowboys in Townsville to progress to week 2 of the finals? I think we will and I have added another poll to get everyone’s opinion.

If we can defend like we did today we have a good chance, the cows can be their own worst enemy
Also I really really don't want to loose to Clifford...

Think I’ll be in the air for this one …

They will have it on the plane just for you

We have a six day turnaround. Plus fly to Townsville. So not ideal. But I think we can get the job done against the cows.

Was hoping the dogs would finish 5th so I could go to the game. Was there in person in 2013 & it was a fun day, especially with Ennis whining throughout.

I've watched the knights lose the last 8 times in Townsville can't make it to the game this Saturday so hopefully that means they'll win

Need to come with the same defensive intensity or the Cowboys could run away with it. They are a very beatable team though, they push the issue at times and have some lazy efforts in defence.

Hopefully its not too humid up there next week - won't be an easy one for us

Great work, classic

Cowboys offence has been on fire over the last month, maybe they're due for a bad game?

At least it’s a night game, hopefully it won’t be too hot and humid. Cowboys attack is great but their defence can be atrocious at times. They should go at Clifford hard early try to rattle him. He can definitely fall to pieces if he has a poor start.

Need to put in the same defensive effort against the Cows, and tighten up some of that loose period we went dropping the ball repeatedly.

Have to take our chances.

Just have to score more points than them.

 

[Roundtable]

Will smash them. All the pressure on them

Weather saying 23 degrees and 60% humidity might be a bit breezy

NRL finals draw.

A flight to Townsville isn’t a trip to London and the 6 day turnaround isn’t as painful at the end of the season as it is at the start. The guys look fresher now than they did at the same point last year. Anything is possible.

Looks to me like we have a great shot at a Prelim.

If we can beat the cows, we then play the sharks who are very beatable.
