NRL Round 5 - Knights Vs Raiders - 4:05pm Sunday, 5th April - McDonald Jones Stadium

Atmosphere will still be unreal even without the 5k closed seats. I’m up for the Panthers game. Will be 1 vs 2 on the long Anzac weekend. Going to be epic.
I mentioned before, I really do hope we have a full strength side. Will he 6 weeks for Ponga. So if he plays say it will be his first week back. But look what he did in Vegas. Just be a good test for where we are at.
 
I was in Europe during our 2023 run.

I can literally remember which game was in which city. Good times.
I was in America for the 97 grand final and living in Europe for our 2001 triumph. Ive bought a house within walking distance to the stadium because I love the Knights so much, just to give u an idea how much missing those events kills me. Im 45, surely I see another premiership in my time right? Please god 🙏 😆

Full strength side would be amazing. But, continuing my 1 vs 2 dream for a minute, if that’s where we are at, and with otherwise a full strength side, I’d be leaving KP for another week unless he was 100% cleared.
 
I vaguely remember that game at home we versed them in 23. All but won, but in the last minute Cleary kicks a field goal to win them the game. Crowd gave the team a standing ovation for the effort.
 
Hoping we can pickup another win today, Sandon's defence is a big concern and no doubt he will be target number 1 for the Raiders.

Toohey said the other day that KP will still be out for another 4 games so he'll probably be back the week after the Penrith game

 
We have always seemed to struggle v Canberra over the past few years with Fogarty's kicking game always making it difficult to get out of our own half.He is not there today 😀. And if it doesn't rain & I get wet in my temporary season seat . Hopefully I'm in for an enjoyable afternoon
 
Im hoping with Brown they mean todays game counting as one of the two

Yeah bit nervous for that one, we have matched up well but Raiders will be desperate for a win too.

Reminds me one of the years under Brown, maybe his last year, won the first game (not totally convincingly maybe it was by a few points) then lost 4 or 5
 
Raiders will be very very desperate today. If we win it'll take everything we've got. Being 3 wins from 4 im not convinced that we'll be able to maintain the intensity through the middle/backend period of the game as the Raiders absolutely will
Agree. It reeks of a Raiders ambush.
 
Just a fun fact, only one team has scored more than three tries in a game against us that being the Warriors, and we have only scored less than 5 tries in a game once, also against the Warriors.
