Round 3 vs Titans

[Drag Queen]

We need to win these games were we are favourites.
We need to start well ( wich we haven't done so far this year).
We sould be to strong.

I think their confidence will be strong, as it should be. I have faith we'll get a good win up there. Love to see LAM get longer minutes too.

 

[TomRedVRiver]

I wonder if Host enters the fray this week? Would be interesting to see what the team looks like if he starts firing. Add a couple of selection changes in the backs and we're looking good.

1. Dufty
2. Mann
3. Aitken
4. Lafai/Lomax
5. Macdonald
6. Widdop
7. Hunt
8. Vaughan
9. McInnes
10. Graham
11. Frizell
12. Host
13. De Belin

14. Ah Mau
15. Sims
16. Leilua
17. Sele

DQ
LAM is on fire he is playing his best footy of his career. His post contact meters are great.

If we are serious, we should win this by 20+

I’m pretty sure the Roosters and Storm are ‘serious’ but they didn’t win by 20 against the tigers - hell they didn’t even win!

I think at this early stage of the season it’s hard to call the result. But if we are serious I’d expect us to build on the last two weeks both in attack and defence.

 

[Old Kogarah Boy 1]

I filthy..... finally a ‘local’ game and its now being played at Toowoomba, 2 hours away!

Just for that, hope we put 50 on.

 

[kit66]

We'll have the bigger support with the QLD Dragon Army. It will be effin hot up there and I expect a close battle.

If it was at Skill Stadium Robina you could expect a crowd almost half Dragons fans but it's up bloody Towoomba this year so who knows. The best crowds at Skill are for games vs Broncs or Dragons and they go and move it to woop woop. Skill park's about 10 minutes from my place dammit !

 

[SackMaryNow]

18+ 20+ ????

This is exactly the type of game we will scrap out a narrow victory or get rolled. McGregor teams do not ever put in 80 minute performances. 18+ wins are few and far between.

I think we might win by 8.

[redandwhite4evr]

Last year we lost this match 20-10. Should win easily but Brennan,like every other coach, is smarter than mary so there goes the certainty.If Nighty's brain fades continue, anything can happen

 

[Brutalitops]

Write the Titans off at anyone's own peril, especially those who expect an automatic 20+ win to be serious. There have only been 2 games this season with winning margins over 20 and one was a 54-0 thrashing and the other was our Broncos game

A win is required, but any bullshit about needing it to be a smashing or else we aren't serious is silly talk.

Far too early in the season to dismiss the Titans as a pushover team just yet, especially after their round 1 performance, and considering Ash Taylor and Jarrod Wallace may return, their round 2 performance just about becomes irrelevant.

Dragons by 6

it needs to be a smashing or we aren't serious..

Nobody is expecting an automatic 20+ win. One poster said Dragons should win by 20+ if they are serious.
Nobody in here thinks we will win by 20+ literally nobody including the bloke that said we should win by 20+. He's just baiting.
A win away would be a great result and we would be on top of the comp after 3 rounds, can't ask for much more than that.

I was dirty when I found out no Brisbane game, as I live on the Sunny Coast, so I looked up Titans hoping for a Friday or Saturday Game to find it 3 pm Sunday at Toowoomba, which should get me home around 8 Fkn pm. To which the wife said "No way" however, found a car for my daughter I was going to purchase on Saturday which just happens to be at Too Fkn Woomba so I'm deferring it to purchase SUNDAY so I can sing "O when the saints", for the 3hr trip home.

 

[Old Timer]

Funny the 10 day turnaround worries me more than the Titans.
I don't think Mc Fookknuckle has the requisite skill level to keep the focus and energy levels at the highest levels for the 3 extra days.
If we get there to early it becomes a holiday excursion, if we leave to late, too much idol time at home and of course the added fatigue of 3 days additional car travel to training for the Sydney boys LOL.
Not sure what the arrangements are but if it was me train in the Gong early part of the week, come to Kogarah for a couple of days and head to Toowoomba Friday morning on the direct flight then home Monday morning.

[Dragonslayer]

I don't foresee any changes to the 17 from the last 2 games.

However, McGregor has to be very selective this week if he is to make any changes. Both the ISP and JF play on Saturday so there will be no reserves to fall back on unless we make a sacrificial lamb of someone who would travel as the 18th man.
The only one that may be included would be Lomax if he played JF kn Sat afternoon then took a flight sat evening or early sun morning. I doubt anyone from ISP could back up given their late night finish.

We don't need much back up considering there's usually two bench players he never uses.

Ditto, kit66
When the Dragons play at Robina, there are always more Dragons fans than Titans.
The trains are full of us Dragons with the big red V on!

Correct, I expect to win 30+
