NRL Round 13 - Knights V Bulldogs - 8:00pm Friday 31st May - McDonald Jones Stadium

Need to park armstrong off kpps hip, only way i see us scoring any points sadly. Confident we can keep em scoreless just cant see 2 tries in us at all. Its one thing to say we need our halves playing into the line more but when neither offer a threat with their running game they know they are just going to shift the ball on. Alternatively we could get armstrong pushing up through the middle off elliot and leo, this shift to shift stuff is never going to work.

Have we actually scored off a KPP offload yet? Seems crazy someone is not trailling him every time he hits it up.

Its taken 5 weeks but teams are now isolating armstrong with the highball. Copped sh*t when i called him suspect in the air and said teams will start targeting. Well there you go.

He's been driven back miles when he catches them as well ... sides have cottoned onto that as well. Must be almost on negative metres. Needs to pass to a winger when he takes a kick.

He’s been there a few times tonight but the ball has gone the opposite way. He’s sniffing around 👍 Armstrong that is
 
they punished us through an error and abit of arse with the first try, overall this doesnt sound right but we have been the better team going set for set. Score one early and its game on again. Its going to take an error or a bounce of the ball situation to get us back in it.

It's going to take some individual brilliance to score as our halves can't create jack
 
I do feel like we have been on top of this game, once we get over for that first one the points might start to flow easier

I know ive come across as bagging the guy over the last few weeks but his weaknesses have been pretty obvious and this was only a matter of time. Hopefully aob gets into him and tells him to get his hands on the ball and pushup in support because thats his strength and his been largely uncited in that department.

As much as a dislike him playing the position you'd have to think about Crossland into the halves if the two jokers currently there don't start having a go.

Hmmm, where was my thumbs up from you when I put up my team selection earlier?
