Spain starting fullback Karpani onto the bench White to reserve grade Kirkpatrick 18th player

Off the top of my head, we beat Parra in the 2001 grandfinal and they topped the ladder that year by record amounts.

For those who can't read the article - Francis said food in general was his weakness, and gave a "sneaky KFC 3 piece combo" as a particular favourite. The journalist says he is banned from KFC in the headline, but Francis just says he is eating healthy and doing "extras" in the gym "on the...

It was very close to a try scored by Fletcher Sharpe in Flegg years ago. The Knights packed a scrum with seconds to go before halftime with about 60 metres to the tryline - the ball went to the left from the scrum to Kurt Donoughoe who put in a kick across the field to the right, where Fletcher...

Looks like he'd have a six pack in this photo from today

My slant on it is he has been cruising in reserve grade for at least a year, easily being one of the best by just doing the minimum, and it became clear to him pretty quickly that he had to do a lot more to compete in firstgrade. I'm sure Holbrook sat him down and told him he had the talent but...

Best was a rubbish defender for at least a year. Gagai was a rubbish defender for his entire first stint at the Knights. Two of our best now.

An article on Francis in the League section of the Herald this morning. No online link yet. Basically says Holbrook sat him down after his debut and told him he has the talent but the game will pass him by if he doesn't do the work. Quotes Francis as saying he loves KFC but has given it away and...

26/8 Long spiel on managing the salary cap - says we are doing well, but it will be hard to keep everyone - says keeping Hunt beyond 2027 looks hard. Says Crossland will lose top tackler count for the season by missing a game - he is only 17 in front. Dom's manager says they are getting there...

Pretty strong side all things considered. Manu, Saulo, and Gags are the big inclusions. Cant is 14, but Hagan is 19, so they could go either way.

https://www.newcastleknights.com.au/news/2026/08/25/pathway-to-heaven-mcarthurs-moment-to-savour-despite-defeat/ NRL article on Emily McArthur by ex-Herald journalist Brett Keeble. Says Emily is 18, which is crazy because she must have been 17 when she played in the reserve grade GF last year...

Kepaoa is someone they might give a game this week. Reserve grade last week they used him at second row, centre and wing - not for any reason I could see - just giving him time in each position - which might mean they thought he might be needed to fill in somewhere.

About 25 years ago I had to do a lot of research into cigarette consumption. I was basically asked to look into the issues around introducing a smoking ban in a mental health facility. I found studies that showed 1 in 3 people who smoked at that time had a mental health diagnosis, but the...

Hagan will probably debut. He topped the tackle count with 40 and fantasy points with 67 - 3 line break assists, 1 try assist, 4 tackle breaks in reserve grade.

If he's already had it, that will be 3 weeks at least.

In the great scheme of things, this is one of the least important games of the year. The only thing that this game has a slight chance of effecting is whether our first final will be at home or away. The first final game in two weeks is our most important game of the year - or if we win it, our...
