I'm just wondering if anyone else has had bad experiences with the "flag man" as he has been rude and disrespectful towards me and my family.
It’s been a defining feature of the Knights this entire season and something that is blazing obvious in every set. Even the commentators are exacerbated at how Knights never contest kicks.
Is it a coaching decision? Has Adam O’Brian told them not to?
Why? Am I missing some sort of strategy to that? As the worst performing attack in the entire NRL it seems like this is an obvious place to point at.
The confusing thing is it’s usually on the 5th tackle anyway — so even if we accidentally knock on in the contest — it just becomes a handover anyway — so why not?
Anybody in the back or front office realising that re-signing O'Brien last year was a reactive and terrible mistake yet?
Is that three debutants in a row to score on debut:
Is there any chance we make the finals?
So I was just looking at the rest of the men’s fixtures for 2024, and we play:
I think we likely win 5 of our remaining games (eels, Manly, wests, titans, dolphins) but that means we miss the top 8.
I just saw a knights fan in the crowd at Suncorp wearing a mint BP sponsor jersey. I swear we pop up all over the place as often as the random Souths fan.
Votano scoring for the blues tonight in the under 19s. Kid has a bright future. Highly rated within the club.
Here’s hoping that Votano and O’Sullivan starting work this week is a sign of a turnaround in our juniors really pushing through into first graders consistently.
Edit: also, Cody Hopwood getting a run, another player with a lot of potential.
So Marzhew is a one season wonder and Jackson Hastings is stealing money. There’s no way that dudes a first grade foody player on the $ he’s on.
Edit. Crossland’s a baller. Streets ahead of Brailey
The dudes played like 3 or 4 games, one of which he got MOM with 2 try assists and 1 try, against a team with a fullback who just got offered a million plus extension in the wet. Not to mention less than 12 months ago he won a gf. He won that game. The chin said it himself. And his dad. Jerome didn’t get hurt Brisbane start a dynasty instead of mediocre. Y’all are morons
Anyone else heartbroken we lost Dom Young. Only to watch him score so easily for the Roosters and getting the assists off Teddy, when it should be Ponga! 🥲 Especially when we need him most. 😭
