Thought they had a real dig …impressed with Seufale, Peck, Seyfarth, Pakoti and Pakau..

Lost the half and fullback in the 2nd half but never gave up...couple of late Knights tries blew it out in the end..

Pakoti looks a prospect. He played well in the Sharks' game.

I didnt watch the whole game but thought Carter made some strong runs and has the build to go to higher honours.
 
The boys at least had a dig this week which was good to see. 6 tries to 3 in the end though. Losing Lemuelu mid game yet again (4th or 5th time he hasn't finished a match this season) and then Doolan made things tricky. Ended up with no reserves on the bench by the end of the game.

Some players played well but these same players have also had a number of poor games this season, and the team cannot defend as a unit. But with zero continuity and 4-5 changes to the side on a weekly basis there simply are no combinations in attack or defence and it shows.

Having a fair try disallowed after 5 mins was a real kick in the teeth. Maybe with a bit of early confidence they might have snuck home.
