How gutsy is our team.

 

[dragonssamy61]

Extra time holy shite.
Great kick duges

 

[hewi]

Oh boy oh boy. How good was Duggan's kick. So proud of our Dragons.

 

[Lewish33]

Can't watch. Switching to an infomercial

 

[mickeylane]

DUGAN to kick field goal - if we win this it will be amazing!

 

[thebigredv]

Not the best time to give the Rooster a 7 tackle set but it was almost a perfect kick. Tough luck McCrone. Doesn't deserve to cop what he is about to receive!

 

[getsmarty]

Gutted....But what a gutsy effort from our guys.

 

[2010]

Although we lost, proud of the team after losing Widdop.
This game proved two things for me, the seven tackle rule is a slight on the game and the golden point is a joke, both teams should have been given one point each.
Even though we lost noone can say we are not premershio contention

 

[hazzbeen]

For me what comes out of this is if we loose Widdop or McCrone even our 9 Mary has not given anyone game time in these positions .

 

[dragonssamy61]

It will be hard to back up against the storm but lets fill win stadium and beat those cheating melbourne grubs.
Hope the Warriors bash them

 

[BlackDuckSaint]

It already hurt losing Widdop. But to lose Dugan for part of that second half was brutal. We were really rudderless without Widdop and it doesn't bode well for the coming weeks. Hopefully someone can step up at training this week and prove they are up to the task.

It was all heart that kept is in that second half which is pleasing from a defensive stand point. But our last tackle options were non existent, and Lafai barely saw the ball in the second half and when he did, he still looked genuinely dangerous but we kept going first man or going right.

Heartbreaking loss, but still proud of the team for fighting to the bitter end.

 

[Dragonboyd]

Have to be proud. You can't shit on McCrone after what was almost 2 perfect kicks in extra time. His first bomb should've had a much better chase than what it did. The second kick in a different universe stays in and we win the game.

Furthermore after almost beating the Roosters without Widdop for most of the game (Also lost Dugan for a good while), in my opinion this makes us look even more legitimate than we did before.

With a full strength squad we WILL make a deep run into the finals.

 

[OzDragon]

Can't fault the effort, but fk me the refs fked us on more than a few occasions.

Outstanding atmosphere though.

 

[Dannyboy80]

Gutsy effort tonight, guys dug deep. Question now is, Mann or Field for the 6 next week?

 

[blacksafake]

Gutsy effort from the boys with no help from handbag chechin. For a very tough game there sure were some soft penalties in the second half as you would expect after Robinsons rant during the week. Not one penalty for all the late coward hits after the ball was passed or kicked. Pearce could have broken Duges' legs & he should have been placed on report.
Some very tough times coming up without Widdop.

 

[Saint or sinner]

How can you win let alone without widdop ..we got caned in penalties in second half.. Dealing was taken out in that field goal.. Rosters and broncos win .. Nrl is happy

 

[Smack]

Dugan so much heart.

McGroan needed to step up after Widdop went off, at the very least take control of the 5th tackle. McInnes was a passenger in attack, it was a great opportunity for him to step up too. Nene made some blunders but he scored a crucial try breaking 4 tackles so hats off to him.

We had them on the ropes in the first half and really applied pressure well. If Widdop stays on for the 2nd, it's a different game.

Thompson, Frizzel put in some good work.

I feel as though the refs were too whistle happy today and it hurt the flow of the game. Some dud calls went both ways but mitchel puss should have been binned for a late knee slide that could have caused injury.
