NRL Round 7 - Roosters Vs Knights - 2:00pm Sunday, 19th April - Allianz Stadium

Yes they did have a terrible start and the whole first half really. But the Tigers had a very strong wind behind them. We let in two quick tries, but for about 15-20 we started to swing some momentum back, then the back end of the first half we let in a flurry. I could see it. With less the 4 minutes to go I thought don’t let in another one. You could see they were gassed.

They were heavily fatigued, the Tigers were literally running down hill with the strong wind. So I think that attributed to such a lop sided game and not a true reflection of how we have been performing as a team. We will see against the Roosters, although now typical Knights team with multiple star player injuries against us.
 
The Panthers is near impossible, although being at home gives us a slight hope.
There’s no reason we can’t beat the Roosters though. They’re nothing special.
 
Also adding to the WWLWWL trait, we have never lost a game at Allianz Stadium. With all of these stars lining up a few bucks on the Knights seems like a good idea.

Just chiming in.

We lost the prelim against the Chooks there. A core memory is a bloke from Morisset smoking between the carriages on the train home and getting abuse from Chooks fans when we were chanting walking out of the stadium, good times.

Will be at this one and honestly with the amount of points we’re seeing all over the comp a win wouldn’t surprise me at all, even with our outs. All we need is a slight momentum swing early on and our spine of Sharpe/Smith/Brown could tear them a new one, just need to beat them to the punch.

Anyone can win this year.
I'd say half the wins across the NRL this year have been upset wins.
We start as underdogs every game.

Under certain circumstances.

The Storm are the perfect example of how a lack of forwards effects the outcome in V'Landys ball 26'. They've got the best coach, best spine and cant win a game.

We're in a similar position with our forwards. Without Friz and Lucas, arguably much worse, actually. Coming up against the Roosters, with arguably one of the best forward packs in the comp (on paper at least), can't see how this isnt a comprehensive defeat.
