Friend short ball to Pearce who slices through and scores.

Great pass by Friend!!!

With 4 forwards on our bench Smith obviously had a plan to work over the Knights forwards which worked in success. Snowden is absolutely exhausted and hardly attempted a tackle on Pearce.

Smith vs "Master Coach"

Pearce is finally starting to become the footy player we always hoped he's become..

Nice pass by Jake..We need to see more of that..

[ism22]

Love JWH and Cordner's hits on Mason!!

Mini... TBH looks better than Boyd out there. Was Boyd just good because the Dragons were?

[ROC181]

Only saw the last 15 but Good last play...
Congrats to mini MOM, again!!!

Tagive try saver on Uate, grabbed him by the shorts which forced him to throw a forward pass. Then we done another flurry of passes and steps which led to Kennedy being held up.

End score 24-6

Well done boys.

We needed this win more then anything.

[The Brain]

Not spectacular but reasonable win .Some strange plays by Smithy possibly a winner

The refereeing leading up the Knaughts try simply criminal, Arona wasn't within cooee of knocking that out of Hilder's hands but ofcourse 6 more.....****ing useless.

Well the positives are that we had excellent defense all game. Only conceding 1 line-break/try off a wrong call by the ref. Attack was extremely flat in the 1st half yet we had around 30 tackles in opp20. 2nd half great defense, very little missed tackles and some great unscripted "in the moment" trys.

Mini played well as he has been most of the year..

But i thought Pearce was a clear Man of the Match..

[Guest]

I think we need to do more of the plays where it ends up with Perrett against 1 defender or just a sprint to the line. As we all know he's very hard to tackle which is why i think this would work.

Any other average team would've had 20 on the knights at least. I can't express the amount of hatred I have towards those days where we dominate everything yet we still can't score then end up being scored against first.

Feel better now?
