Round 19 vs Canberra

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Proved we don't need Ben Hunt. That's a positive.

 

[dungay dragon]

Some players restored some pride in the jersey tonight but others should never see first grade again . Well done some

Much better effort tonite , esp 2nd half
Amone very good tonite
Lomax strong and dangerous
Sullivan , liability in defence , didnt show enough
Like young Coachman..with a good off season will be even better next year
Had some major injuries 2nd half , but kept trying
BMM seem to block Suli moments , loitering in the centres
Suli must go looking for the ball, if it doesnt come his way
Side seemed a lot freer without Hunt , esp amone
Bye next week ..then Tigers

Sticky having his usual moan

And Dan russell is a firstgrader, welcome in the 17 every week after that effort. Unlucky loss but we made alot of punters sad tonight.. Line was 11.5 LOL

He ran for just over 60 metres mate. Great story but I thought the majority of fans wanted to see us moving away from journeymen in the team debuting well past their prime?

It will be the same story if we pick up the PNG hooker from the superleague.

There is a reason why these guys have gotten so far in to their careers and not played NRL.

 

[Phantom V]

Better and how easily it could have been so much worse. We saw glimpses of a pair of halves that could give us real alternatives in attack. We've said it before. Bud and Amone know each others play
No-one knows what Hunt's going to do, other than crab sideways to a runner who gets lined up and hammered. There's promise there with Bud and Amone. The challenge will be being able to get them on the field together with some regularity. I'm OK with this loss as they had a go.

One of Amones better games. Thought he really stepped up. Shame Bud got injured. These guys will go well once we get a couple of more decent forwards in our pack.

 

[thebigredv]

Well some of our defence defies belief but I can't say I am disgraced after this effort. Definitely seem more harmonious without Hunt.

 

[Dragons4me]

Watching the Fox aftergame show with TV on mute and Hunt is the topic. FMD I'm so over it. Do a deal with anyone and let him go. Even in the Raiders loss we played a better style of game. Bye bye Benny. I'll bet he didn't even watch the boys tonight. If had, he might have learnt something.

 

[Dea]

Amone, Sullivan, Lomax, Rava, Liddell, Debelin, gave me some hope. When Hunt goes next year we will be OK. If Sullivan plays again this season then Hunt can share duties at 9.

BMM played 80 minutes which is too long for him. He should be an impact player.
Feagai is getting some metres but offering nothing exciting in attack and continues to be a turnstile in defence. Time for a change!

 

[jeffdragon]

First half was poor.
Thought it could get really ugly but to their credit they looked good with the ball in the 2nd half.
Unfortunately Liddle lost that ball.
Still don't think we were going to hit the front.
Lomax played well Burns was good.
What annoyed me was Whitehead questioning. the ref after Turner got needed in the back.

 

[Crush]

Guys if you see the “next game wabbits” at top of the thread pages, don’t be alarmed, we actually have the bye next.
That’s just that Hornby guy bumping my comments from a month ago trying to win the internet again on a Friday night.

 

[be55]

As bad as things are at the moment, Toby Couchman is someone we should all be very excited for what the future might hold...

He's a rep player in the making, and future captain of our club...

Take it to the bank

 

[sammymills]

I know we lost but the team just looked so much more free without hunt there. They were laughing and having a go and trying things, was great to watch. Credit where credit is due mbye played well likewise w Billy burns had a real go. Paul turner was unlucky to get taken out like that.

 

[VodkaSaint]

sullivan did too many burn outs.
Blew a frigging diff didnt he!

We have the same personnel.
Carr inherited a shit show.
Doing the best he can.
Tigers after the bye will decide spoon.

 

[justadragon]

Keep this team going for the rest of the season, we dont need Hunt he just gets the team to hang their heads, showed a bit of ticker and played some footy. Flanno has something to work with.

 

[Dragon David]

Some quick tries to get to only 4

Good on you Crush. We need to scrap it if possible.

 

[Dragon David]

Poms 6-132, not Stokes unfortunately

Poms 7-142 but Stokes still in. Nevertheless, we get the tail guys out quickly we should have a first innings lead. I hope so.

 

[jeffdragon]

Sully's hammy could he a bad one.
Not a twinge.
I reckon a month at least.

 

[thebigredv]

Burns has his knockers but i reckon he would be a fantastic player in a good tea.
I think he was a Hook recruit, but I wouldn't be so hasty to send him packing.

 

[Georgeg]

Lomax to fullback, Sloan to wing
keep Russell & Burns in first grade
& promote Musgrove.
Mbye looked good, must need a new contract
