Expecting a real ambush from the Knights in this one…

They are 0 and 2
Playing at home
After dropping their half back and getting unwanted media attention

They will be up for a forward dogfight I reckon.

With legit question marks still hanging over our pack, missing NAS, Welch and Chan (not to mention Munny and Hughes), those with a jersey on will have to aim up big time.

On the front page of the Daily Telegraph today a inclusive interview entitled "Alex McKinnon 10 years on: Life, love and forging a future after tragedy".

NSW media they are a one of a kind. This is really not what I a think the are.

One day they're going to give the club a slam dunk defamation case and we'll own them

Adding the Alex McKinnon dribble I feel like we'll be pushing the proverbial tish uphill to win this one. TBH, to finish within 20 of the Knights would be good.

Aaron Pene drops out. Grant Anderson is 18th man.

Congratulations to Shawn Blore on his Storm debut.

Interesting (to me at least) little tid bit, Blore's player number for Storm is 234, only one different from his tigers number of 235

Hughes should have been playing today and could have been the difference if we lose by less than 8 points. The NRL judiciary has shown they favour the NSW teams who receive kisses and cuddles from the judiciary. That's a fact!

If our forwards can do a job, I reckon Wishart will play really well.

Knights are allowed to turn their backs before they hit a player and play on!!

Too many players running sideways. Run straight. Forward.
