fair dinkum you blokes :lol:
this was a bloody trial game, it means squat :lol:
i hope this result pushes our top 8 price up :)

This is true (the broncos were hammered by th storm by 50 odd last yr) but to lose to a neville QLD cup team....thats a tad concerning.

Not really, cause they were both full strength first grade teams. This is a full strength first grade team losing to a full strength QLD cup team :)

But Phil Gould and Peter Sterling tell us all the time that Super League is Premier League standard. :lol:

Can't say I'm not disappointed Dragons lost, but after losing our most senior players you can't expect to be as good as you were the first game of the year.

a little concerning yes, but understand one of the reasons we are tipped for the spoon is because our entire spine. 1, 6, 7 and 9 is completely different from last year, its going to take time for those players to gel with the team and the team to gel with them. TBH i expect an extremely slow start to our season, but we'll come home with a wet sail. Unlike some teams who might kick off the season well and finish poorly, we are only going to get better for each game we play

just reading the report now, looks like we had 1000 chances but cocked it up at the end. Poor defensively aswell with way too much drop ball. All things that arnt too difficult to fix up

I hear your messiahs Dobson and Zillman were both pathetic.

Dobson apparently played ok, he will get better with more game time, but zillman had a shocker at fullback, which confirms my long held belief that zillman is not a fullback, he is and always has been a half. Dont worry about us JM :)

How much time do you expect that to take?
Do you hope to win 4 of the first 10 games?

Ahh..I love the sound of OFD (Obsessive Fan Disorder)...makes you say and do crazy things. As much as you think you love them..you are actually hurting them.

Hmm a fair while, as i said we've completely changed our spine and style, it will take awhile to get everyone to click. We've got a reasonable start to season. From round 1-10, if we can get 5 wins id be reasonably happy. 3 or less would be extremely disappointing. The last 10 is where i expect us to start showing something to really worry people for the 08/09 seasons

Doesn't sound like anyone will have to worry about the Raiders this year.

If thats the case, then what are you doing here trying to bait us? ;-)
as i said, if we are as rubbish as you say, then you dont have to worry about us and we'll drift quietly into the night. Clearly something we have has got you concerned. Must be our cheerleaders eh?

I was at the Souths v Sharks game last night in Gosford, and both teams looked awful, even before the rain set in. A lot of work to do for these two sides.
