Dragons vs the 2nd dragons team

Alot of similarities over the last few weeks both sides been hit with injuries and struggling to score points.

 

[Joker's Wild]

We have better game plans though

 

[Hutty1986]

Knights are Dragons second team and have no game plans. Knights have no good bad good defence game plans Carney Pearce inside ball chip kick red line game plans.

Super Reece returns. Newcastle have no chance now.

 

[matrightyeh]

easy to dragons

Well said.

 

[2010Dragons]

Bennett coached team verses Bennett's team to be coached.

Should be a good game to watch.
Nothing in it.
Dragons by 1 or 2.

 

[Jason Maher]

I'll take a win by hook or by crook. Pretty sure the Knights fans probably feel the same way.

 

[Ulysseus]

Dunno about this one, Newcastle could win it.
What I do know is that I have had a gutfull of Origin f**king the teams chances.
If Morris and Cooper play chances improve, if Reece plays............................ fahhhhhhhhhhkkkkkkkkkk

 

[Timmah]

Morris is playing Origin Ulysseus, Cooper isn't likely to be back til Round 18 or even Round 19.

 

[jonno_knights]

Coops is a slight chance (Bennett said last night). But im thinking they will give him this week off, seeing they have the bye next week too, and Stanley/McKinnon deserve their shots.

Knights props in season best form. Which is good seeing as though Aku wont be there for his usual 10+ hitups a game from our dangerzone.

DeGois is the X-factor. Since he has been back our forwards have been able to get a roll one. And he will need to be at his best this week. Stig's kicking game will also need to be good, as its seems thats the only way to score against the Dragons this season.

A scoreline similar to the last knights game at WIN would be nice. Boy was that a good night. I'd take a 1-pt victory though, as the 2 points is all that matters.

Planning on playing by himself in round 18 is he? ;-)

See what happens when you've got a successful team?

 

[thommo4pm]

Cooper is a chance to play this week.
Unlikely though, given we have the bye the following week and another 2 weeks off will surely have him at 100% in Round 19.

I'm sick of getting Alan Shortall refereeing our games. He is close to the worst ref in the comp. Very close.

 

[God-King Dean]

If Jennings is fit for Origin, Morris will play, & vice versa.

I actually hope they don't play Cooper, this is a game Dragons should lose & we have a bye after this. No need to risk him.

I don't reckon it is. With Hornby back and Fien to do a good job at 6, I think we'll get them, esp with Gids and Mullen out.

 

[_Johnsy]

Us by 14, reecey to grab a double

True, forgot about Gidley.

Simmonds to set a club record with 5 tries.
