Not sure what will impress some dragons supporters - we take on the top team with a key out and because of a dumb bunker on a guy who doesn’t stand to play the ball we get done by 2. I, for one, am proud of my team! Many of you were predicting a 40 point loss.
In the same fashion that we say a win is a win (often when we manage to Jag one with our crap style of play), well a loss is a loss regardless of the fashion it comes.
There were still many many dumb moments in tonight's game that we produce week on week such as:
- Suli not passing to Sloan when he'd score untouched.
- Kyle kicking out on the full which lead to a dog's try.
- Kyle kicking a bomb which went nowhere and then giving away a penalty when he launches himself at Harry Hayes' forehead.
- Getting a crucial penalty in the second half only for Kyle to shank the touch finder so we only get a 10 meter advantage.
- Allan not leaping from the in-goal to take a bomb which gives away a line drop out and leads to the match winning try.
- Sloan coming off his wing and letting their winger score untouched.
- Poor last tackle options, including getting tackled on the last, kicking straight to Crichton across field and just watching him catch it.
- Gutho deciding to go short on that drop out at the end and then not even kicking it 10 metres.
- Poor defensive reads and miss tackles on the other dogs tries.
If all of the above impressed you, you're very easily pleased.
