Knights need to play well either way because Marshall and Farah will be back for the tigers when we play them in round ten. Except they will be coming off the bye.
 
I don't see this one as a must win. We've faced all the top sides after this match - Manly, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Roosters ... coming out with a 4 and 4 record will be okay, because we should notch up some back to back wins against the weaker sides.

Although, rep season is coming up!
 
How quick has the season gone! :(
Obviously we want to win, but if we lose by single digits I'm sure we will be able to take some things out of the game and not lose any confidence.
We'll see how we sit against the bench marks of the comp.

Warriors still only managed to put on only 14 points against them? I only saw a little of it.
 
The crowd only paid half price due to the dodgy conditions, pretty good idea by the Warriors. Might have doubled the crowd.

How long before the game were the public informed about that?
It is a great idea. It would be hard to judge the weather even the day before though
 
It was bucketing down!!!! The field was really wet as well, every time someone got tackled there was a big splash. No mud though, never seems to be any mud anymore.
