so would you rather have them playing tired or not at all?

how would the dragons go without:

Boyd
Cooper
Morris
Creagh
Scott
Weyman
That list of players is significantly more impressive than the West injury list. But we would still have won without them. Because that's what we do, win.

its the equivalent positions of players out

our whole left side attack where we score 75% of our tries is on the sidelines. it would be the same as you guys having creagh/cooper/morris out

the dragons are out and away the best team in the comp atm however if you dont think that on our day at full strength we cant beat you then you have rocks in your head. yes the dragons would still be deserved favourites but im entitled to be confident in us.

best game by far over the last 2 weeks.

There was a reffing decision that bemused me though, at the 56th min, the Tigers got a penalty from a 20m tap because the Dragons were offside. When the ref gave the mark he walked up to the 20m mark and stood his ground for where the kick into touch was to be taken from. I would have thought he should have held the mark on the 30m mark where the Dragons should have been located when the 20m tap happened??? It's only 10m's but still............ League is a game of inches as they say.

Correct decision, learn the rules.

McKinnon vs. Boyd
Tuqiri vs. Morris
Lawrence vs. Cooper
Ellis vs. Creagh
Payten vs. Scott
Galloway vs. Weyman

The only one that is certain there are that Boyd is better than McKinnon. Morris might be playing for Australia but I personally don't think he's better than Tuqiri and I think Cooper and Lawrence right now are probably equals. Ellis is better than Creagh by miles and Galloway is better than Weyman imo. So to you I say, no chode.

No your not. Your mob has won 5 games. You are not even good things to make the playoffs. Interestingly, Sheens has never taken this side into back to back playoffs.

great effort from the tigers, 6 of the normal starting 13 out and put in a real gutsy performance

if we can get anywhere near full strength this year im confident we can beat the dragons

Same thing was said last year. 'We know now how to beat the Dragons'. Didn't happen.

Lost by 1. Boyd cheated in the last minute anyway. Not allowed to throw the ball over the dead ball line from the field of play on the full. Penalty. Refs don't know the rules. Tigers were robbed. Eat a bag of d*cks.

That team vs the Tigers that ran out today would get thoroughly flogged.

We'll make the play offs and be very dangerous if at full strength. We only went down to your mob by 1 with 4 players out after 2 decisions in the last 7 mins that the nrl admitted were wrong

Sore losers make the whole experience more enjoyable still. Bitter tears are the sweetest.

There's only one thing worse than sore losers. Sore winners. I wouldn't be defending our team so stringently if there weren't a bunch of high on their own petard Soward bangers in here. Have fun without the best coach in history next year. I predict another 40 years of choke.
