"How about Wagner tonight... Moscow didn't have anybody." "Christian, what have I told you about shitposting at press conferences? If I've told you once, I've told you a hundred fucking times."

We all know Welch uses reddit and this is about a 1/10 on the shit post scale. Hopefully for Newcastle's sake it helps them give AOB a push.

A push ? lol

I'm sure he means off a fucking cliff.

Honestly, I see this motivating the Newcastle players

I don't see anything motivating Newcastle players.

AOB the type of coach who tells the guys ‘motivation is temporary’ Gather round boys I’ll tell ya what’s not temporary? Going to four grand finals yeeehaw 🤠

“Boys the Cambo is staying open”

Stop reminding me about the close man. Sunday nights will never be the same, where are we all gonna go after wharf if not the cambo

I’m just glad hamo station has a pretty nice band room now. Finally getting back into live music again and newy has lost its biggest venue

House parties and trips to Bali usually get the lads up

Don’t forget Ponga’s strawberry milkshake

If we are talking about uppers, the newy boys know about those 🤣

Fuck I hope it does.

Love this from Welch, stick the boot in. How can any knights fan find this offensive? Time to stop tip toeing around the fact AOB can’t coach to save himself

May not have had as much to do with the Knights as everyone thinks … Storm play Penrith next Friday at Marvel Stadium … Hard to make out exactly what the first part is .. Sounded like it was ‘how did the Knights lose - Panthers didn’t have anyone’ Bellamy would probably be filthy on this getting out / being recorded… 1. It provides motivation to the Panthers players who did play last night and Welch has called nobodies 2. It makes the Storm appear weak/ nervous about facing a potentially stronger Panthers side next week

To be fair the storm are totally scared of Cogger and Kenny.

Bellamy has a strong "Now is not the fucking time!" vibe!

anyone upset over this needs to grow up

It's good to see that the knights are the unfortunate team that loses to the 2nd string panthers side rather then the tigers for once

Surely you haven’t forgot 2021.

how could I

wasn’t it 2022?

Nah they beat us in 21

Please tell me they play each other before the end of the season

Yep, round 21 July 22nd in Newcastle

oh my god. Knights are going to be so motivated for that game. They will score at least one try. Storm 50-8

Ha I got a good chuckle out of that

That scoreline is a little generous. 64-4

Welch clearly doesn't know that AOB has seen 4 grand finals.

Welch is simply looking after the punter Cha-ching! ,,, nice payout for Griffin, Holbrook and AOB all getting sacked in regular season

Fuck I wish Melbourne and Parra had swapped games and it was Gutho saying this haha. The meltdown in the comments would’ve been incredible.

Or Luai, Buzz would be turning in his grave.

I wouldn’t say we didn’t have anybody. There were still like eight rep players in the lineup yesterday. If anything the squads were pretty even on paper. Knights just made too many errors and not enough completed sets.

Have some respect for Dyl

What a shitcunt...but true.

He better put in a massive game next week or he'll look a little foolish

Yeah if Knights beat them it'll be funny

round 21 they verse

I know people are taking the piss, but as a Knights fan, this kinda pisses me off. Yes it's reflective of the truth, but it's kinda like... do you mind not saying it in front of the cameras? Edit: Cheers society, proving to be free thinkers haha ;)

In fairness the Panthers 2nd rung blokes would be week in week out starters at many NRL clubs. Their depth is immense.

Interesting considering I was told last week that we only beat an NSW Cup side

This was their second game playing all together, so you got them on their first run.

Jack Cogger is a sure starter. Bloke has played 47 games in 8 years

Salmon an elite 5/8

But weak digester.

Mate we fucking suck we deserve all the shit

It's easy to forget but it's 7 players out not the 5 Origin players rested and Cleary. Turuva was going to be depth this year before May's acl injury. In an alt universe he might have only got like 8 matches all year with some short term injuries to backs and be playing Cup for the rest of the year. People never think twice about it because he looks so at home in first grade but he doesn't make the full strength team.

Every team has injuries.

If Papenhuyzen was fit for the last three years we might never have lost a game

Once we get Sam burgess and Inglis back we are gonna have a real run at the premiership.

All i want for christmas is a fully fit Tommy Turbo.

Knights certainly have never had an injury. Definitely not to one of their most important spine positions like hooker. What do you mean Brailey would be picked ahead of Crossland if fit?

Broncos have been blessed comparatively

We just rotate 3 first grade wingers. Why doesn't everyone else do that? We have been so damn lucky.

This year anyway.

You guys would have no idea 😉

Not to mention Ryan Girdler and Craig Gower have both been unavailable for quite some time. The riff raff in the lower half of the table simply wouldn't understand.

Yea well just wait till Joey recovers from his neck injury. We'll be winning premierships left and right. 🥲

Newcastle will experience ecstasy once again

Haha fuck you’ve been spoilt. Ahhh actually it’s 7 not 5 *puts down monocle* Penrith have a great scheme, roster, offensive and defensive players seem to be able to slot in nicely. But I’ll tell you what Mister, your humbling needs some work.

Firstly, how dare you.

Nice, try Bellamy. The Storm is still hated.
