– Mike

G’day Mike.

Newcastle snapped a five-match losing streak last week.

Why can’t Gold Coast do the same?

Team lists in for the Knights and Titans

By Michael Doyle

 The Newcastle Knights are fielding the same team that snapped a five-match losing streak last weekend.

For the Titans, a team now on a five-match losing streak, Jayden Campbell returns at halfback. Campbell joins AJ Brimson in the halves for the first time since round six. The switch at halfback comes as Tom Weaver is out due to concussion protocol.

Brisbane needing a bounce back after Magic Round shocker

By Michael Doyle

Brisbane looked in control early last Sunday, but their bogey team, Penrith, got them again.

Despite the Panthers having a shocking start  to the season, the four-time defending premiers managed to turn it on at Lang Park and beat the Broncos handily.

In a season where most teams have been inconsistent, few have been as pronounced as the Broncos.

As five-eighth Ben Hunt told ABC Sport following the loss last Sunday:

“Really frustrating. How can you be so good one week and then do so many silly things the next?

“The gap between our worst and our best game needs to be a lot closer than that.”

Which Brisbane will show up tonight?
