I am beyond filthy, put $5 on Cooper to be FTS, then looked at the ticket and it says "last try scorer"

Unbelievable.

Well my young one was crook and I couldn't make the game which is probably a good thing given the weather which by all reports will only get worse.

As for the game - a little dull to say the least. The weather is playing it's part as both teams are playing percentage football.

I am most pleased with the defence of our guys and really impressed by the turn around of Jefferey who could of went in to his shell after spilling an early bomb. Soward has continually peppered him and he has answered every question asked since.

The Dragons have to be a little disappointed at only putting six points on us given they had the wind behind them and the lions share of posession in the first half. Not that we can talk all too much after that first half, though it's most pleasing to see their ain't much direction in the Dragons attack.

I am quietly confident heading in to the second half with the breeze behind us. Our kicking game has to improve though.

Nice try to Swain (FINALLY!). I had a beer with him after our last trial and brought up the fact he was still without a try after 50 odd games. I am sure he enjoyed that.

BRING IT HOME TITANS! :D

Not good enough - 18pts in 13 minutes to open the second half to the Dragons ... how we are so poor away from home I don't know. Cartwright needs to address it and address it soon. Not that he would have sat on his hands during the off-season, though fugg me dead, it's like chalk and cheese going off last week OR are the Cowboys that bad?

Oh, and likely looking at 0 from 8 in the tipping with many others including our two commentators :lol:

Congrats to the Dragons and Nathan Brown :clap:

After a standard first half, the Dragons responded in the second and simply outplayed us in all facets. Our poor handling, lack of discipline and missed tackled contributed as well mind you, though the Dragons led by Soward were too good.

A nice kick up the ass for us.

I now love Matt Cooper. :lol:

Can't believe I got away with that.

Those last three and a half minutes I was sweating bullets.

Wow. It's a big difference what happens when the Dragons get their outside backs some early ball, but the Titans did make them look good. I thought Poore had a great game and Laffranchi had great game for the Tits. Also I think the Dragons played to the conditions better.
