Hopefully Ponga is still out and we can knock them off easily. Barnett gone too.

Thoroughly enjoying watching the sharks play atm. Couple of good wins, if we are the team I think we are, we win this semi-comfortably

Big boppers need to set the platform again, Siafiti boys are good, not sure when Klems back

Ramien vs Best could be a good battle too

Ponga will be back but that’s ok. You want to play against the best players.

There will be a plan I’m sure.

I can’t make this one but I’ll be trying to get score updates.

Eh.

They still scored 20 points against Penrith without him so it wont be an easy game for our defence, whether he’s playing or not.

No easy games this year and I get the feeling with Finucane and Fitz in the squad they will have the same mindset

Knights are playing some good footy too. Will be tough. We definitely owe them a beat down.

Found our way to lose to these guys consistently. Need to flip that. Agree it will be a tough game.

We are a much different team under a different coach. We should be able to handle ping ponga much better than under the previous make up where soft defense was the norm

home game helps alot too, last few season we have played knights early in the season but away at their home ground while we were still getting to grips with our squad / season and IIRC day/arvo games on dry tracks which suited them, especially Pinga though the odd night game was in there which we lost too

We are much better prepared this time around and night time game, might be cold, slippery for em

No idea why they are $3 in betting and we are so short @ $1.39 (I would expect more of a 60/40 split) are they potentially missing Ponga or half their squad??? They are 1 position below us on the ladder in 4th on same points as us and the Pennies pretty much beat everyone

Having said that I do think we will win, prob most confident I have been with this team and against the Knights in a good few years so I still wouldn't go loading up on those juicey odds the Knights are offering

I think they’re missing Klemmer and Barnett won’t play:

Ponga should be back. Not sure if any other key players are out. Brailey obviously but we all know that
