It’s not like the idea is “Give the ball the Kalyn, let him do the rest.”
Knights fans deserve better
Hence why I put in the winning attitude example.
Does another home loss mean the end of the season for Newcastle?
I wasn’t expecting us to win at all but they just didn’t look like they wanted to be there.
After another nightmare, things need to change for the Knights
Maguire did it first fair call but Wane definitely kept them there. He would be good for us if AOB gets sacked.

He did sir but it wasn’t exactly his main head that got hit.
Knights down but not out after Penrith loss
We lost the next 5 in a row
Won Round 10 against Wests
Sixth losses in a row
Thumped Titans Round 19
Thumped by South Sydney the following week
Rick Stone got sacked
Won only 2 of 6 with Danny Buderus as coach
Got the spoon.
Newcastle’s biggest test: Can Knights topple the premiers in Bathurst?
Trust me sir, it’s not. I have seen this playing get online bashed by a lot of Knights fans. In a matter of respect and privacy, I chose not to mention him.
The Knights are on the rise again
Sadly, that’s trademarked by Go West. Great song though.
The Knights are on the rise again
Just to make mention, that game against Canberra was the third time they all were a spine together. However, Clifford was five-eighth and Crossland was halfback in the first two games. Just an honest error I made.
The Knights are on the rise again
I chose not to name and shame out of respect and courtesy sir.
Reality check for Knights fans: Newcastle are nowhere near premiership contenders
It was a massive blow to lose Connor Watson. I was devastated.
The tide has turned for the Newcastle Knights
Okay, about the 100th scored by a Knights player against the Titans, that was Mitchell Pearce’s try.
Winning culture rediscovered, the Knights are back-to-back finalists
In the first sentence, I did put back to back finals.
How far can Newcastle go in the finals?
I don’t think I said he debuted for the Knights sir.
Will Dane Gagai help Newcastle return to relevance?
I don’t get upset by it but I do know the players don’t like it sir.
Online abuse is a major problem in rugby league
Paul, I love social media and I don’t use it to bash footy players online. They’re human just like us. Could you imagine if these online “expert” coaches were actually coaches? The players would either walk away from them or kick them daylights out of them.

With all due respect, I’ve seen some Dragons fans say crap about their players.
Online abuse is a major problem in rugby league
Very well said sir. There would have been some players back in the day like Chief Harragon, Spud Carroll or Mark Geyer you wouldn’t dare call overrated for two reasons.
1. They were never overrated.
2. If you said that to their face, you’ve signed your death warrant.

One thing I forgot to mention here is I see similar things from fans of all teams.

So would Wayne Pearce, who I’ll shift to second row alongside Steve Menzies. Bradley Clyde can take a spot on the bench. Despite predominantly a lock forward, he also has versatility as a prop and second rower.
Is Connor Watson cut out to be a lock forward?
I actually didn’t name it this.
Have Newcastle hit rock bottom?
