Less than three weeks until footy's back.

Ain't it grand?

 

[Timmah]

Can't wait. Just wish there was a way to get from Gosford to the 'Gong in under 150 minutes

 

[Dutchy]

I reckon about 180km/h will get you there

Very strong side, that. Can't wait!!

 

[Timmah]

Almost full strength. I'd take the Dragons... by 6?

 

[Godz Illa]

Dragons 91, Bulldogs 6

 

[Timmah]

St George Illawarra have never defeated the Bulldogs by more than 18 points in the history of the game tbh

 

[Dutchy]

records are made to be broken ;-)

 

[Godz Illa]

est. 1921

 

[Timmah]

Pretty sure St George Illawarra were established 1999. They like to rewrite the books to suit them though ;-)

 

[petetheileet]

saints by 10

 

[Deacon]

If the forwards dominate dragons comfortably, because our backs dominate the dogs, the game plan for the Dragons is to field 4 different teams throughout the night 1st 20mins, 2nd 20mins, etc should be interesting

 

[gregstar]

i'd rather lose tonight, remain injury free, & roll the dogs in regular season for once.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

6-4 to Bulldogs. KTC from Dragons. Utai scored for Bulldogs.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

12-6 to Dragons.

 

[Bulldogs_4_Life]

22-6 Dragons way - HALF TIME

Bulldogs getting smashed ffs.
