We need a good coach now.

Only a f*ckwit could lose games like that with the players Elliott has at his disposal. Maybe if he stopped f*cking with our players heads we'd be a half decent team.

It's a miracle we only lost by 1 though with our injury list. Goes to show that a real team will put the Dragons away comfortably.

If we don't beat Broncos next week then I'd be getting rid of Elliot pretty soon

 

[Twigg]

what a soft team we are. We'll probably even lose to a depleted broncos team. Goodbye finals, just avoid the wooden spoon please you overgrown softies.

Cowboys/Rabbitohs have got that comfortably. If not then there's Bulldogs and Warriors to back up.


Oh Broncos/Panthers game shall be fun. A game to be plagued by brain farts.:crazy:

 

[pantherz9103]

hurts to lose when up by 12-0. I know we had alot of players out and dragons were at full strength, but its frustrating supporting a team that continually fades in the second half.

 

[mxlegend99]

Dragons should be more dissapointed then us to be honest.

Beating a depleted Panthers side by only 1 point with all their attacking weapons is pretty shocking. Especially when our injury depleted side lost their fullback 10 minutes in.

 

[Parraren]

Dragons have had a dream run over the past month - Souths, Origin ravaged Storm & Broncos and injury ravaged Panthers.

They would have lost 3 out of those 4 games if their opposition was at full strength.

how did wade graham go anyone know

 

[Downie]

Damn, Gould is painful to listen to. We need a 'No, no, no, no, no' and 'Ridiculous!' counter for him. He's a deadset broken record.

 

[Harold Bishop]

Geeze the Dragons were lucky to get away with a win. Were pretty poor considering how many players were out for the Panthers.

Graham was ok. i thought, is a very strong defender but wasn't given much to work with when he had ball in hand.

 

[*Paul*]

You have to laugh at them bagging the Dragons for attempting a field goal, trying to take the lead is "negative" play.

 

[renouf]

I love Gould... he is the only commentator who tells it like it is...

 

[no name]

F*ck, early stages of both games had me thinking I had tipped a winner.

 

[God-King Dean]

I'm embarrassed by that 'win'. Penny players can hold their heads high.

Quote of the night...

" No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. No no no no no no no. "

Might as well put skirts on the players with some of the tackles that were penalised tonight.

 

[Danish]

With some of the soft SOFT calls against the panthers tonight that directly led to Dragons points you have to wonder about the referees. Seriously, that high tackle call on gasnier, the "lifting" tackle on creagh, the "holding back" penalty in the dying minutes.... it reeked of a refereeing team with a grand on the saints.

That, paired up with the absolute red carpet treatment draw the dragons have had over this last couple of months (melbourne, Brisbane AND Titans without their SOO stars FFS), if this dragons side cant make the finals it will be a miracle

 

[mxlegend99]

Jesus christ the referee was oridnary in that second half. 3 back to back penalties for the Dragons, an incorrent knock-on ruling against Penrith, followed by another penalty to the Dragons.

Then right near the end, we get penalised for absolutely nothing. He put them in position to win the game, and kept us out of position to win it.

 

[choc_soldier]

Hard to take that loss. Some people will say we were "brave", but we lost the match by our own doing.

However, I think some of the penalties awarded to the Dragons were quite mystifying. But I'm not going to blame the ref on the loss.

 

[Caged Panther]

I was really frustrated to see Lewis doing so much kicking, particularly close to the line, when both Graham and Iosefa have great short kicking games from within the 20.

To me it seems as though they were trying to protect both players particular Graham and while I agree we can't be putting to much pressure on them if there in first grade playin the positions they play they should be doing that sutff.

 

[God-King Dean]

I guarantee you those penalties wouldn't have been awarded if it was at Penrith.

Classic case of the favourites getting all the slack.

Can't blame the coach when he picks the players we want and they still play like sh*t, the reality is maybe he knows best and some of these guys just aren't ready yet. Masada looked good but Graham is not ready yet.
