Traumatic, but not as traumatic as expected.

Well played Dragons, hopefully our form will pick up enough to see you in september


the roosters with pearce wont be a threat to any defensive team .
roosters really need to look at another halfback to be less predictable

another completely biased refereeing performance against the roosters.







dragons didn't look very solid today. they did enough and capitalised on a few errors, but not hugely convincing. roosters might have had them if they'd scored in the 70-75 minute mark.

or if they had scored in the first 40 minutes or scored more between 40 minute and 75 minutes

Looking at that game, you'd have to be filthy as a roosters supporter with T. Carney & Watts.
Add carney and theres not much between them.

Impressive multiple orgasms by Laurie this evening, he'll sleep well.

Gotta love these refs. Blew the piss out of the whistle in the first, but I can't recall a single penalty in the second. Well I guess that's better than the usual penalise the crap out of one team nd then square it up once the game is gone.

Our discipline and handling were both shit in the first half. A handful of dodgy calls against us can't hide that. Surprise surprise it's what Bennett emphasised at half time.

just to be clear, there was no plural, I was only referring to the guy I quoted..

Although a lot is being made of the Dragons' defence, I thought it was more an indication of how shit the Roosters' attack was... cross-field kick, cross-field bomb, cross-field kick, they had absolutely nothing today.

They looked few a number of times with those face balls and inside passes, but our goal line scramble was just too good. You're right about their last tackle options though.

Can't fault the effort, particularly from the forwards but again Captain cap burglar and the Myth have nothing. It had no real impact on the result but I can't help but laugh at all the borderline forward passes the refs picked up but couldn't spot the 2 metre blatant one in the build up to their first try.

Really? LOL

You got every call during the game & have the hide to blatantly lie in an attempt to make yourself feel a bit better about how shyte your side was..

FMD, 2010 still a bit painful? ;-)

Forward passes from DH are part and parcel of the game we call rugby league these days. Dragons aren't the only ones who do it.

Thought it was an excellent game of football this afternoon, my favourite regular season game of the year. Great crowd in as well.

Roosters attack is sorely missing Carney, Pearce started this season in great form but has faded since then. Still the Dragons defence is just supurb. Still hate seing them winning games tho!

Though Boyd when out there was excellent, Gasnier and Cooper always pretty dangerous and Weyman pretty good today, Kennedy, Myles and Minichello the best for the chooks, although Minichello just doesnt have that same impact returning the footy as he had in his heyday.

Biggest difference was the kicking game, which was shithouse today from the chooks, so many which went dead or came down in the ingoal. Soward was pretty good in that regards. Shame he cant take the line on or he would be a shoe-in for Origin.

Great day at the footy
