Can we get every player's missus to have a go at the coach on social media?

We look awful. Not only do we clearly not have a single set play to run, we have absolutely no structure or style.

I feel like Scott is having a fair crack. Nothing outstanding but some good hard carries and defensive work

Beautiful setup there! That try was all Williams (kick to get us the spot and that pass).

37th min ERROR KNIGHTS from Kayln Ponga, drops the big bomb from George Williams. Raiders scrum mid field, 10 metres out.

TRY RAIDERS to Bailey Simonsson, huge pass from George Williams off the scrum win to the winger. George Williams converts from the sideline.

Raiders 16-0

HALF TIME

Suaso Sue injured... checking a neck injury.

Don't know a thing about you dubby but empathise with your position, champ.

Recently met up with two old mates I hadn't seen in 10 years to organise a 20 year school reunion. Catching up on life and plenty of brews later, I opened up about my struggles going through a rough broken engagement etc, only to find out both lads had been through much worse and one was still heavily medicated.

Began with us all walking into the bar pretending like we were on top of the world, but left with a legitimate feeling of support and comfort.

Chin up mate. Like one of the other guys said, everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) goes through it*. Take care.

*tough times/issues I am referring to, not specifically bad break-ups.
Thanks mate

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

:lol: wasn't a bad kick actually. Didn't get the bounce. Worth a shot with 10 seconds to go.

We gave up 18 to the Cowgirls.

I will not be able to live if we lose again.

Newcastle are still determined and only need one try to get back in this game.

Fair call given our form of late but I heard a stat earlier this week that the last 23 times the knights trailed at half time they have lost.

True but he doesn’t get a heap of chances and his defence got us a repeat set.

He’d be gulping pretty hard with each one of these kicks G-Willy knocks over.

The last bastion of hope for the Croker apologists is the old goalkicking/point scoring chestnut
