Cronulla have caved and will release Miller. Will be announced soon, very possibly this week. You all have to call me Harvstradamus if I’m right.

On a galactic scale, “almost two months later” is basically “soon”…

 

[Rear Admiral Butthead]

Article says he played league till age 22 before switching to 7s, so that's a positive.

I didn’t realise that fact. Yes very encouraging.

So we now have 2 top 30 places left.

We need to find an experienced prop from somewhere.

Time to start build some spine Chemistry, not long until the season starts.

Our spine options are a lot better than last year. If our forwards can aim up and stay fit, it could be a better year than last.

First trial v Cronulla in 2 weeks.
I wonder if we could get Bradbury to put a big hit on that Lauchie Miller guy - oh wait...

It should be a much better year than last year as long as we don’t have too many injuries.

He played for the sawtell panthers. Was a absolute gun too

Harvstradamus, I bow to your superior knowledge of the dark arts of NRL recruitment.

Hopefully when we play the sharks in coffs we will have the home town support. My uncle lives in coffs might head down for the weekend when we play.

 

[Kurriboy]

Good the signing is over the line.

Now get training and see how we go through the trials. KP being injured for the rest of the pre season cant help the spine gel.

And in betting odds we are spoon contenders above only flipper.

 

[Defence wins games]

Really wish we kept bradbury though. Was great in the 19s origin and looked to have beefed up this off season in the pre season photos.

Because the Knights are a desperate team/club, we have to enter into what seem to be incredible situations like this.
We are a long way off being a force in the NRL again.

 

[Sheldon]

It's not a bad little stadium bud. Played rugby with him. He's got a fair few followers from that.

 

[The Gidley flick]

Luckily we got the deal done otherwise It might of got called off cause Kade dykes just done his ACL

Yeah how's the timing of that!!? Feel sorry for Dykes.

Barry has a high opinion of Hodgson.

TC Robati about to be sacked by broncs. I personally wouldnt mind rolling the dice on him for cheap.

After claims of sexual assault I think he can go rot in hell.

Rugby league guru said that there’s rumours that Flegler is being linked with Manly, we should look into hijacking that deal.

I imagine he will be chasing big money. I'm not keen spending big on props anymore. We are already paying the Safs decent money and part of Klems contract.
Did they ever mention what we are paying Elliott and Hethrington?
