Only Parramatta in 2012 & 2013 won back to back, I think I heard before kick off, few drunks yelling out Lolly Legs as the Knights kick off… fulltime

Congratulations Warriors caught the last 20 minutes, a real testament to Tj Ashfords coaching too.
Well done boys!
Bishop MOTM and good interview, sounds like a very humble kid, thanked the parents for their sacrifices getting us kids to games 
Flegg on now Bar TV away to Storm
Yeah but kid has bleached hair, so he can't be MOTM because the retirement home says so.Bishop MOTM and good interview, sounds like a very humble kid, thanked the parents for their sacrifices getting us kids to games
Could he get a game or two in nsw cup?
Big Bishop
Well done 2025 matts team, And TJ Ashford!
Wicked that the club is forging a nice pathway for future matts boys to follow.

What a great result for these young guys and their coach. Development baby.
Cool. Shame that style of play doesn't translate to first grade or we'd be a Panthers like dynasty with guys like Solomona Kata in line for Immortal status.
He was a shocker. Always wanting to do his I see you try celebration
I'm not saying this translates to top grade by the way, just want to make that clear.
Some real talent coming through in our pathways - exciting to see! Back-to-back is an incredible result! Well done to the boys, TJ and the club 
Bishop Neal stepped up big time today - it is what you want to see from players like him, getting up for the big games. They missed Hansen, but Ioka filled in admirably. Lemana looks like he will have a big future if he continues this trajectory too. Will be great to see some of these guys step up to SG Ball next year - I wonder if they would give some of the more developed kids (like Neal) a game or two in Flegg this year.

This win was better than last years IMO. Down by 12 in the first half and down again by 4 in the second half, the turning point was the (only) backs try to put them up 16-14. In hindsight, it looked like the Knights front loaded their effort and faded late as a resuit. The starting props back in the last quarter put the nail in the coffin and they both scored.
It’s true that a power game alone won’t win you a ball or flegg title. Not having a team in the Laurie Daley Cup (u18s) makes the transition harder. Last years winning team haven’t played together as a team this year. The core of the Knights side that lost yesterday will have played in the clubs reps u16, u17, u18 and u19 sides by the time some of their players start pushing for 1st grade spots. The Panthers success shows what bringing juniors through together can do. We’re missing that I think but it’s early days for the junior pathways program. Back to back wins goes a long way to building a culture of success. Next years team could be better, especially with the whole bench and starting winger back again.
