Im very happy for him to be our media face, he takes a lot of pressure off the other guys, noone was complaining a few weeks ago when we were winning games.

Best example was after Boyd's interview was getting heaps of bad press, and Dell came out on the footy show and papers, and put all the emphasis back on him, and away from Boyd, was really appreciated.

Dell seemed at a loss to describe how the team get out of the current hole its in

first the attack goes missing against the raiders
then the defense goes missing last week
now the confidence is gone this week

and next week we play the red hot eels...
this is Mr Bennetts first true test - and i do believe if anyone can turn us around before the finals he can.

The Broncos lost 5 straight in 2006 before the finals and we all know what resulted in October of that year!

That is true. However, they did win their last three heading into the semis, and developed crucial momentum (although we mustn't forget, that it was the Red-V who beat them first week at Suncorp and they still recovered).

The comparisons end there though. They had (and still have) arguably the best 5/8 and outside backs in the game, when on song. Premierships are won and lost in the halves. I just don't know if we have the skill or experience in the 6 & 7 to go all the way. Hornby is the half a metre too slow.

Our forward need to aim up and lay the platform.No silly offloads and completions of sets,everything will click after that.

No side since 1954 has won a premiership after losing it's last 4 games of the season. That is what was quoted from the Daily Telegraph.

Then again it is from the Telecrap. According to them there were no Dogs fans looting any trains last week after they beat a red hot Roosters side. Smashed windows, Fires, grafiti etc. Instead they would rather put out a 2 page spread on a Dragons player who had a short interview and misquoring the CEO on doing his job at looking at stratergies to make some money from a successful season.
