Tannah just oozing with confidence right now… what a sight compared to when he last played the knights
Highlighted posts
No CNK, Metcalf, CHT, Pompey, Rocco, Capewell, and Gannon injured 5 min in....
We werent perfect but were building for sure.

Boys. We are 1st.
Our pack is the real deal.
The way they control that middle third should scare all other teams. The way they can rotate Barney, Fish, Erin Clarke and Vaimauga......and then u have the iron man Ford who allows them to do that means that control in the middle of the park is relentless.
Tannah Jonathon Thurston Boyd......playing the perfect chess game off the back of that domination......so nice watching someone flourish how he is right before our eyes.....his pinpoint kicking game is something that takes teams deep into a competition......Boyd 7. Metcalf 6. and CHT 14, a no brainer for me.
Tauapiki's elusiveness was causing the Knights headaches all night. Niukore made a strong return with his direct runs shortening up the defensive line. Barnett straight in to his tough robust style after such a long lay off was incredible. And thought Laban was strong defensively.
This is so obviously a well drilled and well coached team. U dont win competitions in march so its a week by week proposition and we cant get too ahead of ourselves but i wouldnt swap any other coach for Andrew Webster.....our performances so far has his fingerprints all over them.

Facts first, because clearly some of these “experts” need help. Knights have beaten a wooden spoon-level side in Rounds 1 & 2. That’s it.
We’ve taken down a premiership favourite and last year’s minor premiers — and didn’t just scrape it, we handled them.
Different levels.
Trust the culture. Trust the discipline. Trust the fitness. Trust the team-first mentality Webster’s built — that’s why this side is humming right now.
Then you’ve got Sean the Sportsbet “trader” tipping Knights 13+
One of his big brain takes? Boyd and Hanson are a new halves combo. New? Are you taking the piss?
They’ve played 13 games together in NSW Cup. Won all 13. Won the comp. Won the national championship. But yeah… “new combo”
This is exactly what’s wrong with these planted analysts — either they don’t know shit about fuck, or they’re feeding mug punters a narrative to follow.
Watch the games. Watch the pathways. Know your footy. I don’t gamble, but I can smell absolute garbage analysis from a mile away — and that’s exactly what that is.
Wahs by plenty

I'm heading over for this one from Christchurch, we'll be loud, can't waitIt’s funny how the Aussie media are saying that we should struggle as it’s our first away game of the season. We’ve played better over in Aussie than at home in recent years and always have a strong contingent of fans in attendance that are always louder than the home fans
David Riccio on SEN is saying the Wahs told Rog to look for a payday to see what you’re worth and we’ll try to match it

one of the best things about when we win our maiden premiership will be the discomfort some of the Aussie media will have with it
The comparisons between Verhoeven and Greg Inglis are based of what they achieved at 18. Verhoeven won the Mal Mennining Cup and was the best player in the comp. Made Aussie schoolboys & is starting at 18 in Qcup. Tia’s been the best player in each team he’s played for to this point. With the Roosters he made the SG Ball final which included Toia and Strange. Won the Flegg comp with the Bulldogs where he was the best player in the comp & was named in the team of the year in cup. Neal won player of the final in the HM. Dominated Ball and Flegg. The hype around these players is what there done to this point of there career there is no exaggeration to this point
Congratulations to Luke Hanson on his debut.
I have some doubts about him but he has earnt his call up and it up to him to prove me wrong.

this is stronger than what weve named but also more disruptive. i think chemistry and momentum more important, plus tannah and hansen have played together a fair bit.
Get the feeling barnett makes the bench on game day, just not sure who for.
Fai, matulino, packer…
Regardless, I do rate our juniors- Leka and bishop are rare talents but people tend to get carried away with potential. Verhoeven is the next Greg Inglis? Inglis was playing for Australia at his age… Ive been watching league 40 years and only seen one Greg Inglis in my time.
Tia is the ninth immortal according to this forum.
Both great prospects but people need to cool their jets a bit.
Not long ago mariner was the next steve renoff and now people don’t want him
I like how we’re bleeding them in slowly- they’re still learning and need cool heads around them.
Verhoeven is absolutely the guy we want but one would be dreaming if they didnt think Webster could do wonders with a 26 year old Jordan Riki - in fact he is the ideal pick up. The guy is a premiership winner, has buckets of experience. He has years of highlights. He is super aggressive and is the exact type of player (like a Mitch Barnet) who would go up levels under Webster and be a leader in the pack. Riki completely fits the bill at the perfect age and being a Kiwi.
To our benefit he is currently under performing in this broncos pack. Which is common for most players at some small window of their career. Particularly in their mid 20s
Lose Niukore, Barnett, and possibly Capewell from the pack and then TMM and possibly CHT from the backs... You will need experience. If Riki is on the table in any deal I think they would grab him. Under Webster the guy dominates.
