Not confident for this game. The Cowboys have been quite clinical recently, hoping that our LWLW streak will bring us home a victory this week.
 
Cowboys on a W L W L streak and due for L Knights on a L W L W streak and due for a win and i am pretty sure Mullen is undefeated vs Thurston at club level or at least or did we lose to them last year?
So with that im going
Knights 22
Cowboys 16
FTS Uate
LTS Ash Graham
MOTM Mullen
 
Cowboys pack is huge, they would have watched the tapes of the Roosters steam rolling us last week and one thing they can do is attack.

I know, I suck... I've lost faith.

Cows by plenty.
 
Roosters didnt steamroll us, they played laterally, and due to the slow side-to-side movement of our pack (Snowden, Edwards, Taia etc.) they isolated defenders, and opened up massive gaps for the quicker men. The Roosters only had 1 forward over 100m despite making 1500m+ as a team.

Im supried it took 2 and a half months for a team to play us like that. You could tell in the first two rounds that lateral movement is a massive weakness in our defence, which is above average everywhere else.

As much as i think we will lose, gotta show faith in the team and support them no matter what! Up the Knights!!
 
This season, both the Cowboys and Knights have been ridiculously inconsistent (or consistent if you count LWLW as consistent performing)

Anything could happen this week.
 
Not confident with this game at all. If we're gonna show up like we did against the Rooster, the Cowboys are gonna steam roll us.

Our attack is rubbish, can't see anymore than 18 points getting scored maximum.
 
I love the loyalty and passion here but I'm a realist. We're playing worse than I've seen for a while. Cowboys are a strong and dangerous outfit with X Factors all over the park (something we do not have). Sorry, but;

Knights 10
Cowboys 34

The only thing we have going for us is our LWLW record. Nothing else. And that obviously isnt going to be enough.

Probably going to be a smorgasbord of linebreaks, metres and offloads for the Cowboys. And errors, stupid penalties and not much else from us.

Still gonna go and cheer for the boys (and even stand up when they score. Old lady behind me can get stuffed) but im not really expecting a close game.
 
Everybody, I said it here first. I SAID IT HERE FIRST.

BOYD WILL STEP UP AND GIVE A GOOD GAME. There...I said it. You can quote me.
