Scott Sattler's effort in the 2003 Grand Final is a fair chance at best try saver ever:

The best try saver ever belongs to Johnny Raper and was from memory on Parramattas Barry Rushworth (although not sure) it became a very famous photo. And I think Coopers tackle IMO last night was better than the Sattler tackle massive on many levels and you could see the effect it had on his team mates by the very next tackle .

Phenomonal tackle... it was a real "origin" tackle. If Coops decides to stick to his guns about retiring from rep footy he will be a big loss for the blues.

This is the best tackle i've seen from a dragons player. Another awesome tackle that comes to mind was when D-Lock took Darren Albert over the sideline in an origin match... although coops try saving effort is sooo much better.

Also special mention for Dean Young's effort chopping down tyrell centimetres from the line... talk about pride in defence, GO Dragons!!!

I've printed the picture out and put it on my wall at work as a symbol of persistence and never give up attitude.

And because it's the f**king greatest image I think I've ever seen...

Great pics Godz!
Btw I found this on wikipedia:
"It was announced in March 2011 that Bennett would no longer coach the Dragons after the 2011 season, floating up the opportunity for him to return to the Brisbane Broncos for the 2012 season onwards. Steve Price was named his successor. Bennett had initially arrived at the Dragons with "a job to do" and that was, of course, to win a premiership. Matt Cooper recently stated that'Mark Gasnier was cool and that I am secretly a hippopotamos'."
Which nuffie put that in? No matter, no wonder Coops is so tank!

Make one of those motivational posters for us all to hang up!
