[Mitch]

I actually see the knights win today as a bit of a positive leading into next week - it ensures the boys don’t underestimate them at all.

Our boys will be stinging after last night’s result, play a consistent 80 minutes to what we’re capable of and we should be able to bank another two competition points.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Danger game. After playing Eels and Souths it might be hard to take the Knights seriously based on last year's form but today they were very solid.

At least Flano was there commentating so he will make sure we aren't under any illusions.

Manly to win in another tough game. Manly is actually the team under pressure next week, no-one expects the Knights to do much this year but we've been the talk of the town lately.

Huge danger game , but I think them winning today might be a positive ( for us ).

 

[eagle66]

Both Manly and Souths are drained. Players from both sides were "gassed". Emotional game hoping it hasn't left Manly flat for next week. Don't care about Souths.

They’ll account for that in training this week.

 

[Seagles68]

They’ll account for that in training this week.

And I think the fact they're playing at Mudgee could be good. Good crowd support and a change of scenery. I think there are good vibes there for them. Certainly better than the home game at Suncorp.

 

[NREagle]

Kurt Mann suffered a Category 1 head knock today. Guess that means he's out against us.

 

[Alfreddo]

Manly by 2

 

[Disco]

2 points between 2nd and 14th (I know its early). We have started well be need to keep pressing and collecting points

I'd like to know more about the brace on Koula's leg.

 

[Alfreddo]

We will win by more than 2 if Croker plays. Probably closer to 20.

 

[NREagle]

I'd like to know more about the brace on Koula's leg.

Nothing mentioned in the nrl casualty list released a couple of hours ago. And nothing from the club (yet). Fingers crossed it's just a precaution.

Maybe just a fashion statement.

Those whacky Gen Z ders

[CRPSI eagle]

Raiders were rubbish and refs needs to give us the close calls after the rubbish they dished up yesterday.
I’m also thinking we’ll put 20 to 30 on them as we are undefeated at Mudgee!

 

[Rackets]

2 points between 2nd and 14th (I know its early). We have started well be need to keep pressing and collecting points

Much closer competition this year so points for and against will be crucial at the end of the season.

 

[Remy]

Not concerned or worried in the slightest, excited for us to run riot and put on some highlights. Yea they played well and won but that Raiders team was diabolical, and let the Newcastle team come with some false confidence if they want to. We will be more hungrier and hurting after losing in that painful way on Saturday. Massively confident, Manly by 40, and stay entrenched in the top 2.
