Nah, media will spin it as knights beat a depleted dogs team

Honesty agree when the Knights are depleted it’s always “they aren’t good enough” anyone else and they harp on about injuries.

Anything to avoid actually saying something positive about the club.

I mean against the bulldogs we will be missing both our starting second rowers and could also be without Thompson again but they won’t mention that
 
Will be pretty disappointed if they don’t get a win here. After being smashed by them twice last year and fresh off a bye, I’d hope they’d be really up for this game.

Lucas and KPP are big losses but the dogs are without arguably two of their best players so they have no excuses.

It’s not like the Bulldogs have this scintillating attack. Just be patient with the ball, and play with the same effort and energy as they do for full 80. Tbh don’t know why we shouldn’t expect that of them every week.
 
Yes I’ve noticed that about the media with us. Very rarely do I hear positive things about the team. But they lose there **** when for the dogs and Tigers.

Anyway, as James mentioned they are without Kickau, Burton and Statili. Statili has also been playing well for them so big out.

Although not quite as big a boot as Burton, Swxton has a good kicking game also. I say he will be testing Marz again.

Ready to get on the roll coaster ride again on Sunday. See which Knights team turns up.

I think we’ll definitely be up for it, and the Dogs don’t worry me in attack. The concern is more that they have great defence and if we can’t score against them right away we’ll start to play stupidly like the Titans game.

They've averaged 24 points a game this season
 
4 obvious sin bins missed last week & we're on track for way more than that for stuff that's clearly not a bin, as a massive overreaction...

I think people haven’t picked up on Max King being not just good but great now. Probably a top 20 middle at this point. Curran and Preston are also really good so they’re fine without Kikau, but add Kikau in and they have more great forwards than people realise, more than most clubs do.

The rest are all just really fit and mobile and more than the sum of their parts I think.
