Dragons Could Move to First on the Ladder

[possm]

Would be nice but I'm predicting a CANBERRA v Sharks GF
We will be in the semis though - too good to miss out..

Can't see Canberra making the GF and I don't feel the Sharks will be there either. Our game on Tuesday will give us an indication on our standing in this seasons competition.

If the Club can announce the signing of Widdop, Dugan and Packer prior to our ANZAC Day game against the Roosters, I think the boys would lift to another level and show our rivals that we are the real deal.

If the Storm lose to the Warriors and we beat the chooks, the Dragons will top of the ladder alone, with the second placed team being 2 points behind.

Fingers crossed. Would be nice to go into the bye round still on top.

and the scum lost tonight also

In such a tight competition, and given that we don't always execute for the 80 minutes, a loss is inevitable. You'd expect the boys to turn up and fire on Tuesday given the sense of occasion. I am confident we can win it with Dugan most likely returning. But when the loss does come, how we respond to it will tell us more about where we will end up come finals than our position on the ladder does now.

Hope the warriors smash them good and proper.

Yes and if that happened and we beat them in the following round, we will have a very secure position on the table. Our shock absorber for the inevitable future one game loss, would be in place.

With the game results this weekend, we are looking good to continue on our way to a top 4 spot. I know it's a long way to go but I feel this is our best chance since 2011.

A good post thebigredv. I'm confident the Dragons will still be on top of the ladder after this Tuesday's ANZAC Day match. Our real test will come in the next game against the Storm. Win against the Storm and their will be no more questions about the Dragons right to be favoured to make the final 4.

Warriors are specials in my view - Storm havd been average past 3 weeks and Warriors building w Foran on fire expect Warriors to win a close one..

So do u agree that the top 8 is nearly a done deal?
Statistically No team has failed to make the top 8 after winning 6/7 of the first 7 games..

Yes, unless we have a repeat of 2015. But as it stands the top 8 looks a done deal and the new challenge is the top 4 position. However, my prediction of a win against the Roosters tomorrow is of course the most immediate challenge.

Today is the day, the begging of this mini test - Chooks, Storm and Sharks. It's obvious if we pass this test we will be on top of the the table. What is more important is that we will be heading into the second half of the sean as a top 4 contender.

What a turn around. Pre season talk and looking at the rounds, Mary on life support.

Thought we may have picked up a few wins and the nail well and truly in Mary's coffin after the next three games and other teams picking at the Dragons carcuss.

Now sitting pretty on top, full house today, players want Mary, talk about players getting poached by the evil axis and half the team considered for rep duties.

Yes who would have thought. But what a nice time we are having at the moment, like back in the good old days when every other club feared and hated the Dragons. When it could take a life time to gain membership of the Leagues Club and you had to be there very early - usually when the gates oped to get a seat in the stand.
