'10 | R22 | Sun | Roosters 12-19 Dragons | Sydney Cricket Ground

[Chook Norris]

for some reason i can see this being a very low scoring affair.. a close one in the score line until the final 8minutes

 

[jpaciocco91]

Cannot wait.
Dragons to win in the last few minutes.
Only real concern is how Young will go at dummy half

 

[to_ddeath]

To beat the Rorters, we will have to score first. We never seem to win if we don't score first (apart from the Souths win recently)....
Still not sure, toss of the coin job....

2005, was the last time the roosters (24) score 20 points or more against the dragons

So what you are saying is we are due?

I am expecting Fien to be a late inclusion.

Looking at the backs I can see a dragons win, based on defence.

I actually think their outside backs are not the strongest (given SKD has hit some type of form, scoring a few tries over the last 2 weeks).
Graham v Moz, Linnett v Gaz, Kenny-Dowall v Coops, Perrett v Nighty........ really ??????

On paper our outside backs aren't the best, but they're all under-rated. Linnett and SKD have been playing out of their skin. The try Linnett set up for SKD last week - if Hayne did that we'd still be talking about it. And his defense has been awesome, too.

And i wouldnt swap Sam Perrett for any other winger in the NRL. He's the best dummy half runner in the comp and the metres he makes out of our own half are simply invaluable and play a huge role in getting us on the front foot.

 

[Timmah]

Didn't Linnett set up Phil Graham?

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Thank God Timmah is always here to correct errors.

I wouldn't swap any of ours back for any of theirs. Sammy P is one of the most underrated players in the comp, Linnett and Leilua will be stars, SKD is thriving under proper coaching and Graham is very good aswell and throw in Minichiello returning to form with confidence and our backline is pretty good. We still have the likes of Cheyse Blair and Boyd Cordner to come :shock:

In saying that Stain Merge fans wouldn't swap any of ours for theirs, good problem to have for both teams.

I'd take carney,but only to clean sowards boots

& both of your future stars are our juniors, and agreed I wouln't swap any of ours.

:lol: You precious little twat. Harden the f**k up.

 

[eddy2]

You didn't want Linnett...

 

[morri (cWo)]

this game has all the makings of a classic

One of them you didn't want anyway.

 

[_Johnsy]

No, we could not afford to keep them.

Who can compete with the brown paper bags O'Sulloivan carriers around ;-)

 

[DragonPunk]

Well they weren't going to get into a backline featuring several internationals, so we sent them to you guys.

 

[CMUX]

Well they weren't going to get into a backline featuring several internationals, so we sent them to you guys.

Well what is the problem then?

 

[DragonPunk]

I've got no problem, I've enjoyed watching him play (Linnett) Leilua though seems to have a chip on his shoulder.

 

[BeeeeeRad]

Lucky we don't have anyone who has played international footy then or they obviously wouldn't be in our team. *Cough* Minichiello *Cough* Perrett *Cough* Kenny-Dowall *Cough*.
