- JOSH KING WILL PLAY HIS 50TH NRL GAME IN THIS MATCH
- JACOB SAIFITI REQUIRES 2 MORE GAMES TO REACH 50 NRL GAMES​
 
Also guys, paid a fair bit of attention to Slade running the water on the sideline, seemed to be very nimble on his feet, wonder how far off he is, would be lovely if he could get a month of footy under his belt and be available for last few rounds, unless he got back to his peak he wouldn't knock off Levi or Watson but be a tremendous backup.
 
Jake Saifiti ran for 164 metres in 44 minutes in reserve grade and was mentioned in the match report as having the team on the front foot with his strong runs. 64 post contact metres and only 16 runs, so over 10 metres per run.
Guerra ran for 145 metres.
Zac Hosking ran for 151 metres, made 51 tackles and played 71 minutes at lock. That's the second week in a row he has had by far the best stats of the middle forwards.

I'd go with this, although expecting Brown to go with King over JSaf. Would much prefer JSaf.

They went down. Not sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing tbh.

Maybe they’re out of form or maybe they’ll show up pissed off week ready to destroy us. Hopefully it’s the former.
 
I think we need Mann back as 5/8th liked mention before that was our winning formula in the purple patch we had.
I liked what I saw from Moga did well hope he gets another run, also no more Jamie plz just don't think he offers enough in attack with energy.
Also against the Doggies the knights line speed was horrible, think that's why we really lost it, just didn't show any respect to the Dogs.

This 100%, line speed was rubbish. When we were on our winning streak our line speed was incredible and we were smashing teams in D.

To me, it seemed to be lead by DSaf in the middle and the edges, Barnett and Lachy Fitz a bit wider. We get one of the edges back this week. I think Guerra should lead that effort on the other side of the field.

Yep Dsaf definitely is the one leading the line speed in the middle, but out wide it was non existent. Hopefully with Barnett back the line speed comes back also.
 
See this fairly often tbh. Middles get up fast and the flanks lag a bit behind, possibly hedging bets to cover kicks.

If Brown doesnt have both Safs in next week I just will not understand his reasonings. Gavet likely suspended anyway.

What did we think of Moga's return? He didnt get much attacking ball but his runs out of our end where like a prop hitting it up.

I think moga needs to be in the squad, his hit ups helped us get out of our end.
