Knights buy big trouble

from what ive seen we have lacked opportunity through errors. although my wife has banned me from watching the knights because apparently my daughter thats on the way can hear my swearing and anger from inside the womb. if she can understand what im saying then she knows why im angry that has been my defence. but like us last week my defence hasn't been going too good

To me it looks like Bennett is using the "moneyball" theory with his signings, a troubling start is expected but when all these aging/underrated/discarded players click... LOOK OUT lol
 
Boyd hasn't played bad all year, couple of quiet games but he is getting to his best again.
 
Cuthbo wasn't ever rated anyway, so how is he overrated!? -_-
:S

He must've been our goodluck charm :P
 
I think its more like 8. None of which give us any real cap room. Gidley, Snowden,Boyd and incoming Scott all on 400k Mullen 300k. Thats almost half the cap on 5 players. Houston , Fa'aoso, Costigan, Hilder, Naiqama , Cuthbertson , Stig , Roberts and Tahu make about 1.5million. 14 players on about 3.5million. The caps like 4.4million isnt so thats 900k left and the said isnt even complete. Naiqama resigning for 300k was a joke hes a second teir player. Knights are stuffed till 2013

Gidley would be on very little under the cap having played at the club for 10 years and being the marquee player(at least I think he is?)

Would be a bad tactic in the NRL considering all sides have an ideantical salary cap! :lol:

Bring back Ciraldo

He's actually looked pretty damn good for Penrith, from what I've seen.
 
Nah he and Mullen resigned on 4 year deals in april last year Gidley is on 400k a season till 2015 i guess they wanted to reward his club service.
 
300k for long serving players, and Gids would be soaking up just about every cent. Only other player that MAY qualify is Mullen.

+ He'd have marquee benefits too, and He'd have the richest 3rd party deals at the club no doubt.

Hope Paul Harrogan got him some good NIB health insurance deals because he sure as hell needs them more than everybody else.
 
Boyd did well against the Titans. he did drop two balls under very difficult circumstances, but hey even Billy Slater has off days! Willie is our best buy, and Danny has been doing okay. Wonder how fit he really was Saturday night?

I was only thinking today how Billy Slater is a freak. His Origin 1 was pretty quiet, but 1 thing with him is he never has 2 off days in a row. If Boyd could get 1 good day goin thatd be a nice start...:fist:

The other thing is I definately noticed Buderus struggled in that game, I dont think hes there yet eigther.

Buderus got concussed about twenty minutes in, which is why he was benched early, too. It was noticable he wasn't himself when he came back.
 
Ahh, our good mate ol' Phillip with another quality attack on the Knights....erm I mean 'article'. I seriously wonder why he seemingly has this vendetta? Maybe he had a bad dream involving a Knight once.

If he'd watched our games, he'd realise that about half the things he said were just plain incorrect. There are a few truths in the article, but nowhere near what he claims. What a clown.
