Is Iosefo injured or something?

Edit: Nevermind. Just noticed he's in NSWC.

[-AK-]

Don't expect any wins from these two teams this week.

North Sydney are coming 1st or 2nd in NSWC and NYC Penrith are leading it.

However, Masada Iosefa Lachlan Coote and Wade Graham will be playing FG but still Penrith have alot of juniors.

[TSS9]

Mata'Utia dropped for Naiqama.... Odd decision there.

Didn't even notice that.

He played really well lask week aswell IMO.

I agree there. Bears are on top in the New South Wales Cup and Penrith are coming first in the Toyota Cup.

The Bears won 10 straight but then they drew and their streak finished. Now they aren't going quite as good so we'll have to wait and see.

[Jonno_Knights]

we are suprisingly winning NYC 14-6 at halftime, but i guess that may be due to Penriths big guns playing FG

EDIT: tryscorers (not official) are Fai Fai Loa, and Simon Williams (2)

We have some good players though IMO, it just seems like the team struggles as a whole at times. Maybe it has something to do with the team chemistry given we've had numerous injuries and changes through out the course of the season.

18all at Fulltime, GK let us down as we won 4 tries to 3. A Hat-Trick to centre Simon Williams

whoa! they must have done pretty well tonight then

Our kicker in the NYC isn't that great anyway but still to hold first place to a draw is good.

Good to not loose for a change. :lol:

[Jonno_Knights]

Hopefully NSW Cup get up on sunday to make it 2 wins and a draw for the round

[-AK-]

NYC Game was good. The Knights dominated, bombed about 4 tries!

But it was mainly due to Coote, Graham, Grant and Iosefa all playing First Grade, the Knights played very well for their 18all draw.

[Mr Goanna]

Did we beat the Bears?

[knights4premiers]

Nope, Lost 40-18 or something. No idea who scored the trys. I'd like to know though.

[-AK-]

A weird match with players out and Vuna playing. Score on the bears website was 36 - 18.

NORTH SYDNEY 36 (Samu Warra, Germain Paulson, Ryan Verlinden, Luke Grant, Yileen Gordon Shaun Corrigan tries, George Ndaira 3, Nathanael Barnes 3 goals) defeated CENTRAL NEWCASTLE 18 (3 tries, 3 goals). Half time 18-0 North Sydney.
