Injuries aside, take Marshall out and replace him with a 47 year old Mick Neil and the scores would have been closer. Poor old Farah tried his guts out only to be undermined by the bipolar messiah.

As for St George, they're far and away the best team in the competition. The only concern is that they might come up against a red-hot Penrith/ Brisbane/ Canberra/ Tigers/ Souths side in the finals and struggle. I have no doubt that they're playing within themselves at the moment but perhaps they should experiment a bit more so that they can play that al-lib style should the necessity arise.

:lol:. True TV Ted. On all counts.

I watched the game with two Tigers fans. We didn't end up going to the game beacuse the missus is crook, but they were saying the same thing. You just have to let Benji run himself out of room and not commit to him in defence. Just hold and slide. He might bring something off once a game at best f you let him do that. His kicking game was deplorable and too ad lib. For you guys, Farah, Heighno & Ellis were awesome. Benji is almost a liability for you most weekends.

St George are like AFL, better to watch live apparently
That is only because `the fall asleep on the couch after 10' option is not available live
It was 3 tries to 2 in the 77th minute against a team using their 5th choice halfback (Moltzen, Lui, Lazarus, Farah) who got absolutely bashed by Canberra 5 days before.
That St george took so long to put us to the sword is an indictment of their `style'
They do honestly have nothing and when referees start pinging that old hack priddis for flopping in 30 seconds after a tackle is made or bin players who resort to the professional foul after a big bust has been made. They might get the same decisions next week, even the week after, maybe all the way til Sept.

But when the pressure is on and the refs pick up that, amongst other rubbish like the ginger cat's hand on the ball every f**king tackle, they'll show they have nothing again and whoever comes 9th could well dust them up, again.

You must never be satisfied with losing. You must get angry, terribly angry, about losing. But the mark of the good loser is that he takes his anger out on himself and not his victorious opponents or on his teammates. Richard M. Nixon

lol, still smarting from that argument we had a few weeks ago when you couldn't get over Bennett's comments that 10 out of our starting 13 were missing and he was proud that we still only lost by 1 try?

Don't worry mate, I'm not here to get involved in your discussion with Kiki, that's for you two to sort out!


I am quite proud to be given the title of "dumbest and most idiotic" (OK, I will admit that I struggle to see the difference between the two insults, but let's ride with it for the sake of avoiding a conflict about grammar) Dragons supporter. We must be an incredibly intelligent bunch, then!

Anyway, time for me to get back to writing my Intellectual Property Law paper. I better let you get back to unpacking those boxes at Coles - I really do hope that working Night Fill is a rewarding experience, "my friend"!

:lol: :lol: :lol: And by that I'm guessing you mean wanking furiously over midget amputee porn.

Also, wtf are you on about saying "smarting from an argument we had weeks ago" ?. If you are referring to the Raiders beating you at WIN then I was one of the few Raiders fans that conceded that the win should be taken lightly due to the amount of Dragons players out, you douchebag.
I haven't had argument with you you typically delusional Merge fan

You amaze me, RP. You consistently find a new way to look like a little bitch.

f**k me your a little queer. Why do you find the need to keep making posts about me? Are you obsessed or something?

It's actually 15 premierships.

We've won every game with Moltzen at half, and Gaz out? He doesn't count. I'll give you Fien, but Cooper isn't anything special.

Lui/Moltzen are better than Hornby.

Lui is a defensive liability. Cooper is still the best defensive centre in the game. Probably not up to State of Origin level anymore, but could easily match the likes of Lawrence and Tuquiri in defence.

I despise Phil Rothfield, but he hit the money with this article: http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sp...l-to-origin-snub/story-e6frext9-1225882484569

Half of the Dragons squad has been playing a ridiculous amount of football over the past month, and have only had the one bye. Consequently, they have looked tired, and slow at times. There are numerous players carrying injury as well as fatigue. We can all make excuses.

Tigers fans live on the 2005 run. They hadn't made the finals before, and haven't made it since. It's not just Saints who have something to prove.

Probably in Charnwood too. Makes Airds look like Bondi. Good charcoal chicken out there though if you're brave enough.

Nice bait Moffo.

Good to see all the cheat supporters crawling out of woodwork, all those exciting superstars you have ain't working so well at the moment. Melbourne Storm playing football in 2010 is like a castrati masturbating.

I'll tell who is boring to watch; Canterbury. f**king painful, you plunder the league for players and make Cronulla look awesome.

I'll take your definition of boring if the Dragons keep destroying teams, you keep your exciting losses and your overrated fat kid with big hair.

Well....we all know that the dragons have been the dominant team during the 2009 and 2010 seasons. Before that, the Storm did pretty well. Question is, who were the more horrible team to watch?

The Storm were known for grappling away in tackles and slowing down the play the ball. For some unknown reason the referees let them get away with it in almost every game. They might as well have had Hulk Hogan and the Macho Man as their front rowers

The Dragons are largely devoid of creativity, and rely on a dour defensive approach to work teams down. As last year proved, they have nothing when teams turn up the pressure a few notches

Its just a shame that teams who actually play rugby league properly (the tigers are a good example) are worn down by teams that bastardise the game

Discuss

Cheers,
Moffo

Moffo,I never realised a team that defends well "bastardises" the game. Would you say that if it were the team that you support? You probably wouldn't because you would be so proud of how your team takes pride in its line. When I see a team defend several back to back sets off their line, I think it shows alot about their mental and physical endurance. Defence is something interesting to watch and although it may not be as exciting to watch as a sweeping backline attacking movement, it is still part of the game.

We have a bye in hand and sit on 26 points, we have already qualified for the semi's. f**k that really brings out the big red v hate.

It must really annoy spoffo that his team, that were widely tipped to win the MP are lame shot ducks (with the same squad) and will not qualify for the finals, even when there is still 22 points they could get.

Life must suck. Bring on the hate
