ANZAC Day

Looks like a false alarm Preacher.

Those planes going overhead were probably bound for Iraq

*Waits for barrage of insults to Preacher*

Hey, I think it could be a good idea. As much as I hate Gould, he might do the trick. Not sure about Warren Ryan though. He could be as useful to us as Anderson is to the Chooks at the moment.

*Jumps behind with Preacher before anything sharp is thrown*

Our problems are different to the Roosters they are playing too many old players and players out of form , we on the other hand have too many young guys and little discipline . So the Wok would be great for us IMO , but then I surpose so would Gould .

I have been os for the first 5 games of the season, so I havent seen any games only match reports and it dissappoints me that discipline is again our problem. How many years is that now

Also, it seems as though every year he has been coaching somone has been calling for browns head at some stage (usually early) of the season. Can anybody remember any other coach that has had such consistent calls for his head

Anyways, heres hoping we keep the chooks winless and move ourselves out of spoon contention for a while. Bring back Choc!!

I believe this is the sixth time in the nine years of the joint venture that we have one win on the board at this time of the season.

which is exactly why im not too worried.

On another note, the entire upper eastern side has sold out for the game. Get yourself some tickets now and bring as many friends as you have. ANZAC day is always a special one.

 

[The Preacher]

I'll be going in to watch the old man march and have a few beers with him and his mates at the Triple Ace, then make my way down to the Royal Exhibition for a palate cleanser and board the bus for Aussie Stadium, IMHO the best ground I've ever watched footy at.
I hope I'll then be witnessing the resurgence of my beloved Dragons, and to be leaving the ground with a good victory and with much happier thoughts for the rest of the season.

Why they're playing an 80 minute player in Harrison on the bench is beyond me.

A huge fall from grace for Ashley.

It's ironic. His career would've been better off had he stayed at Souths.

So true.

Add Harrison to the Souths pack and it looks all that much better, especially with the form he had whilst in the Red and Green.

 

[The Preacher]

For anyone that's thinking of a brew before the game, i'll be patronising the Royal Exhibition at Central before getting the bus to Aussie.
I'll be with my brother and my young bloke, dressed like a dragons man. Come and make yourself known.
