    Sometimes I hate this game

    MORE RESILIENCE?!?! Look at the state of our team? Our two best attacking players out and then after 15 minutes another back line shuffle to make matters worse. I'd say we are pretty bloody resilient to make the Defending Premiers fight to the last minute.

    Sometimes I hate this game

    Wade Graham knocked the ball on in the play of the ball..... Maybe you need to put some glasses on? As for the Grand Final we won that game 32-8. If we had won 12-8 then there is some merit to that game being marred with controversy with rub of the green. But we won the second half 26 - 0 I...

    Sometimes I hate this game

    We hve a journeyman makeshift halfback, a utility back playing his second first grade game at 5/8, a winger playing fullback and a centre playing wing. Then.. Aitken gets injured, so our starting Left Wing goes to Right Centre (albeit his preferred position), 5/8 goes to left wing and a 19 year...

    Time for Mary to blowup!

    Not to mention the knock on in the ruck before that try

    McCrone is the worst halfback in the comp

    I do agree, he has been commendable as second fiddle to Widdop. But he has never been a Half that you would build a team around and he has been found out the last 2 games.

    Sometimes I hate this game

    Last game against Melbourne there was some almighty bad calls that went against us. Some properly game changing ones. This game, against the Coke Head Shire boys, a try was scored of a blatent... Blatent isnt even a strong enough word... NFL bad forward pass. And for the last try, they don't...

    Round 9 V Storm

    The strip I can live with because that was 50/50, vaughan was struggling and I think he raked himself. The others are unforgivable.

    Round 9 V Storm

    This has all started from two SH*T calls from the refs. JDB didnt knock it on and McDonald should have been awarded a penalty. That is the worst game I have seen. Hook Aitken and get Milne on

    Mann

    So Nona or Field? Nona is a pretty good defender, good short kicking game and can kick goals. Field is a live wire, should be unreal at support play and can also kick goals.

    ANZAC Day Dragons Roosters Round 8

    It already hurt losing Widdop. But to lose Dugan for part of that second half was brutal. We were really rudderless without Widdop and it doesn't bode well for the coming weeks. Hopefully someone can step up at training this week and prove they are up to the task. It was all heart that kept is...

    Illawarra V Mounties

    In easily their best performance of the Intrust Super Premiership NSW season to date, Illawarra repeated their 2016 Grand Final triumph over Mounties with a convincing 40-18 win in the rematch at WIN Stadium this afternoon. Mounties got off to the best possible start in the fourth minute when a...

    Widdop Re-Signs

    The St George Illawarra Dragons have announced that five-eighth and skipper Gareth Widdop has re-signed for the next four seasons. Widdop will now remain at the Red V until the end of the 2021 NRL Telstra Premiership season. The England international has been an integral member of the Dragons...

    "They Scored 3 Tries off Kicks"

    I agree with most that I hate hearing him say "they scored # tries off kicks". But this time he he was saying it as if that is a weakness he needs to address. The full quote was "They scored 3 tries off kicks, and it's not good enough" And he sounded genuinely frustrated about it. Like he...

    Gameday dragons v cowboys

    If Dugan is back next week, does that mean Mann is again relegated to the Bench. He has been playing really well.

    Gameday dragons v cowboys

    It is wins like that, that define a season. I honestly reckon they went out in that second half already looking toward the ANZAC Day game. It didn't help but from my point of view, very few, if any, 50/50 calls went our way, and the bounce of the ball failed us as well. I really reckon we would...

    ROUND 7

    It should be JDB's mission to be first contact on Taumalolo every chance he gets. He and McInnes are our most effective middle defenders. and whenever Taumalolo is on the field, JDB should be in his way. And I don't think enough teams do this, but target him in defence, he is a big dude and a...

    ROUND 7

    I looked at an interesting stat over the weekend. Dragons right side is our definite weakness, however, so is the Cowboys having leaked the same amount of tries. So Lafai could have a field day and Aitken will have to be on alert. McDonald and Aitken will need to hug the side line a bit more...

    ROUND 7

    Widdop, Thompson and Lafai are gonna have to be on their toes with Coen Hess running at them close to the line.

    Sele

    It isn't actually a rib injury, in the dragons statement it is an oblique muscle strain, so those muscles that join onto your abs that run along your rib cage. So it should heal a lot faster than anything that could have been skeletal. I'd expect him to play next week, but if he doesn't, then...
