Thought I might start discussion on this early. Knights have a couple of changes due to injury. Tui is out, replaced by Cuthbertson. Costigan will be playing a bit of hooker. So the side should look like this: Knights: 1. Darius Boyd 2. James McManus 3. Wes Naiqama 4. Timana Tahu 5. Akuila Uate 6. Jarrod Mullen 7. Tyrone Roberts 8. Kade Snowden 9. Neville Costigan 10. Richie Fa'aoso 11. Chris Houston 12. Zeb Taia 13. Adam Cuthbertson Interchange: 14. Matt Hilder 15. Joel Edwards 16. Willie Mason 17. Alex McKinnon Roosters: 1. Anthony Minichiello 2. Peni Tagive 3. Joseph 'BJ' Leilua 4. Shaun Kenny-Dowall 5. Sam Perrett 6. Braith Anasta 7. Mitchell Pearce 8. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves 9. Jake Friend 10. Martin Kennedy 11. Aidan Guerra 12. Mitchell Aubusson 13. Tinirau Arona Interchange: 14. Jack Bosden 15. Lama Tasi 16. Brad Takairangi 17. Mose Masoe 18. Boyd Cordner Probably one of the better bench we have all season. Really liking odds of $3.60 for Knights 1-12.
Easts are going to break all your little hearts by turning it in in the second half and losing 13+ IMO. Newcastle will romp it.
