knights will struggle in a bad way , the roosters have the wood on them, the clsest they got to them was 4 pts at near full strength at home , away they are 16 pts worse team. I wouldn't take the 2.10 i think that is under the odds.

Thanks for the info on Gidley, Goldmember. Helped me with my betting decision tonight.

Well I was taught a lesson here.

Roosters -7.5
I think I was a bit conservative,moeee congrats on saint kilda 60+
I hope you took it.

Yeah Mr J, Newcastle were always going to struggle tonight, but once Gidley was ruled out, they were simply no hope! I rarely back teams giving away a decent points start, but the Roosters were too good to pass up tonight.

Yo Rabbitz.
Thanks for that,but no I didn't.
Went down the tote and they had them at about $2.40.
Unfortunately my bank is at the skinny end and I thought I would find another way to invest my $20.
Tell you what though,that gut system thing is a goer.
2 more gut feelings for me are the Cats a chance and the Roos to jump away to a big score.
Quote me later.

Cheers.

Sportz there is no way a single injury can cause a team to lose like this. The knights must have been terrible.

To be honest, the knights played a hell of a lot better last night than they did against the cowboys[ that was a woeful effort], plus there wasnt a single injury, they only had 6 top graders in that side of 17, too many youngsters and they were outclassed in every department, i was conservative and bet on the roosters at -20.5 and -24.5, just in case they got tired and stuart rested some players in the last 15 minutes, i didnt want to make any bold predictions on the margin in case i was wrong but i did think they had 40 pts on them.
