[Rovelli]

We could've cast serious doubts over the Dragons' premiership hopes if they went onto lose against Newcastle from 22-0 up...but they didn't. I don't think by 7pm Sunday Souths will have any chance of qualifying for the finals, so the Dragons to get a nice win heading into the finals.

Souths to rue all the games they choked away this season.

 

[MattJ]

A question for dragons fans..
Seeing as though the minor premiership is all sewn up and the finals start the following week, do you think benny will rest anyone?
Chances are, if souths win it could very well be a replay the following week (depending on other results ie; Canberra, Manly, etc...).

My prediction... if dragons field a full strength side, i think they will probably win, if they dont and Souths are playing for a spot in the 8, i think we can get the job done.

Dragons will be hard to beat, big crowd at Kograh, sheild presentation, desperate to dispell chokers tag... souths are in for a massive challenge on Sunday, i pray they are up to it.

 

[Godz Illa]

He may rest one or two, but knowing Wayne and the way the team has built this season I imagine he'd be looking to continue ramping up the performance from last week. There is the risk that if we win the first semi that extra week off may stunt that progress. I imagine any resting will be done via the interchange - more minutes for the bench forwards and fewer for the likes of Weyman, Creagh. Last week Weyman had a long stint on the bench and Wayne was virtually forced to throw him back on when the Knights got back within reach

 

[MattJ]

ahhh well, if we are good enough we will get the job done regardless of who Benny fields i guess, unfortunatly i think your probably right, momentum is a pretty important thing come finals time, i doubt theres too much of a chance any of the regulars wont be named.

f**k the arrogant queens... regardless of other results Souths pack have some tricks up their sleeve & will be primed to rip them apart... and our backs will finish the job. Rabbitohs by 20.

I love how you always act like your Septembers are so successful :lol:

 

[Jason Maher]

At least our Septembers exist...

And I want some of whatever Nemesis is smoking.

I love how you call us arrogant, then proceed to talk up how much better your side is. There is a slight bit of irony right there.

This game could go either way IMO. Souths have everything to fight for, and we are entitled to take a week off in preparation for the finals. In saying that, if we play this game at close to full intensity I don't think Souths will be able to keep up given their injury toll.

looks like fein is using his nemesis character this week
