I think we'll beat the Dragons actually. I'm going to say:

Knights 30
Dragons 10
FTS Mata'utia
LTS Naiqama
MOTM Degois
Crowd 19,887
 
If the Titans can beat the Dragons without their rep players, there is no reason why we shouldn't win. Knights by 13+
 
Well if anyone is up for a big game and a point to prove it's the following: Kaufusi, De Gois, Lulia, Ciraldo, Stig etc

All off contract or uncertain futures or of course have left because WB doesn't want them. They can either prove WB right by playing bad or show him what he has let go.
 
Still can't under-estimate them, Hornby is returning, and they still have a very dangerous backline of Nightingale, Morris, and possibly Stanley? Aswell as their big forwards, and Young. But we usually go alright away to the Dragons. Aslong as our kicking is good, and De Gois is on game, we should win
 
Quite confident about this one. We should win. Knight 1-12 IMO.

Just tweeted to Marvin that he should be starting.... ahead of Ciraldo. No I didn't say that, but I implied it.

We should win it easy.
 
Not getting the confidence to be honest, on paper both sides are pretty even and they are very, very consistent.
I can't seeing us scoring many points so we must continue to defend well.

Same here, not getting the confidence at all. They have great forwards & the Dragons need to succeed is for those forwards to dominate us. They've lost alot of creativity with Soward out but their backline is still good enough to get over the line.

For us however, all we need to succeed is for De Gois to be on his game. De Gois in form = forwards in form = time for the halves to use = better chances created for the outside backs.
 
Will be another low scoring, good defensive game

Knights 14
Dragons 6
Crowd 17,180

Will be down there too, sitting in some knights supporters bay so hopefully there's alot of knights fans in there.
