[Mr Drag]

Now I see why Newcastle have to pay overs for Brown

 

[Rizzah]

Zero effort. Ponga didn’t even try to join that tackle for that try after getting steamrolled before

Something weird going on with Ponga. Has he had a falling out with the coach/playing group?

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Newcastle have one superstar who isn't superstaring. Gives off "I don't want to be here" vibes. Rubs off on the rest of the team .
Maybe its not the O'Brien. But , Ponga's shit attitude stinking up the place.

 

[MrFrankWhite]

They look lost/disinterested. Surely comes down to gameplan/culture - that's mostly coach IMO.

8 scoreless first halves this year…

 

[MrFrankWhite]

It’s bizarre cos O’Brien has an okay coaching record, made top 8 4/5 years.

Bad W\L though and terrible finals record.

 

[Worried2Death]

Come on corpse of Newcastle, do something. Manly are pretty awesome to watch carving up though.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Can't make any judgment on Manly given how poo both Broncs last week and Newcastle are tonight. Hastings must have done something really awful to be continually overlooked. Knights season is pretty much over at this pt, I don't see the harm in trying something new.

but tbf most of those years Newcastle only just scraped into the 8 and got knocked out in week 1. Only year they moved past week 1 was in 2023 when we belted them at Mt Smart in week 2. 8-10 is really the ceiling under AOB.

 

[CWC]

Ponga probably spending his time working out how to play for Kiwis lol

 

[CWC]

Oh well I’m rooting for the bunnies on Sunday and Eels on Monday

 

[tyrael]

That's why KPP wants out.

 

[CWC]

Wait so the Manly back up back up FB is outplaying Ponga?

He might not even make the Warriors squad if he keeps playing crap like this

Lots of stuff about Hastings at various clubs which don't put him a good light.

Not on SC....Lehi is on bloody 0 points...KP on 11. Both mud today it seems (not watching game)

[kos]

Newcastle fans booed their team off the field at half time
They are worse than the Titans
The Titans at least play well for the first half

These Knights players are a disgrace

Should be convicted of fraud

 

[CWC]

Lehi was knocked out within 5 minutes It’s the No.4 playing FB for Manly right now
