The scoreline is not a true reflection IMO.
I agree, Saints should have put 40 on you.

lol. 32-8, 26-0 in the second half.

Losing supporters always come up with this 'boring' tag. Sad thing is some of you believe it. Whatever gets you through the night.

Scoreboard: Dragons 24-10
Line breaks: Dragons 4-1
Line break assists: Dragons 3-1
Tackle breaks: Dragons 33-17

This with the Roosters camped down Saints end of the field for most of the game.

If Saints were 'boring', Easts were as dull as a sponge.

:lol: Yeah, but you're not looking at that game wondering if your own team could actually win a game against either of those sides lol.

Actually, we have the Tits soon aye?

:lol::lol:

You call us boring? We are more entertaining every day of the week then your mob.
How many more times could Pearce possibly run across field only to turn it back inside to a forward.

You're right about the scoreline, it flattered you.

Let's not forget the stat....tackled in opposition 20.
Roosters 38
Dragons 10.

Exciting team who can only come up with 10 points with all that possession in the opposing 20.

Well "chokers" doesn't work anymore, so they have to bag us for something else. Hence all the "boring" shit, and the occasional deluded idiot who thinks we are Clayton's Premiers and Melbourne really deserved to win it and were so harshly treated by the mean old NRL.

This game just highlights how important Carney is for us. Which is understanable if you look at teams such as Tigers without Marshall, Cowboys without Thurston etc. With all the ball on your line we really should of scored another one or two tries.

LOL our most potent attacking weapon wasnt playing. Last year when we were playing well we were the most entertaining team in the comp. Those words have and never will be uttered about the Dragons

You need to allocate some of those points to Archer surely!

As long as you give the 6 points to Harrigan for the "try" to Anthony Minichello in the SCG match and another 4 points to him for the "try" to Braith Anasta in the Grand Final, then we'll give 6 to him for the Dean Young "try" in the Grand Final, and as many as you want us to give to Archer.

Ummmm, didn't the Roosters most attacking player play in the first 4 or 5 rounds this year? Before he learned how to open twist tops? I must say, if Carney's performances so far this year indicate him as your best attacking player, God help the Roosters.

ok mate, you may want to re-think about that claim that the Dragons will NEVER or never have been stated as the most entertaining team in the comp.
I can think of a few things that the Roosters will never have uttered about them also.

Bullshit. No way we deserved to lose by 14, the 18-10 score line before the Creagh intercept would have been fair IMO.

I thought the roosters played pretty well and did all they could to win but the Dragons defence was too good yet again. J. Carney really let us down in the first half by giving away a try and bombing a try.

If we play like that against other sides we will win more than we lose but once again it’s a case of lifting for good sides (albeit getting beat) and losing to sides we should beat i.e. Manly/Warriors.

Having said that we have been in every single game right to the end (except the Broncos) so hopefully a few wins are not far away.
