Dragons v Manly round 6

[BigBoss]

Danger game.

Manly smashed us last time. The boys better be switched on is all I'll say.

They did, didn't they? And if I recall, the only try we scored was awarded out of pity because Aitken threw the pass about six metres forward haha.

Yes it was good to hear Mary say that, so if Dugan wasn't injured who would have missed out given Aitken scored a double in his last run?

Aitken to the bench maybe? And I would've been fine with that as you want minimal change from a side that played well. Anyways pure speculation.

We will do very well to get a result. That's why I'm more interested in how we play and if we continue to see the improvement shown the rest of this season.

Considering our record there I don't expect much, I don't think we won there even with Bennett in charge?

It is a danger game in a lot of ways if we win Mary signs for another 3 years .....

Illawarra V Blacktown underway.

Luciano Leilus playing 5/8..............wow!

Anyway he scored and Illawarra lead 4-0 (conversion missed)

Herbert if your going for a bomb actually try and catch it.

 

[BlackDuckSaint]

We have been in the Manly 20, attacking a few times and Dufty has not touched the ball once. Really disappointing considering how dangerous he can be. He looks disinterested to be honest.

What concerns me is if their backs are fed a lot of clean ball , more so the wingers , who are both big brutes , they could smash through any weak defence . As you say Big Boss , the boys need to keep their minds on the job for the full 80 minutes .

 

[coast_dragons]

Illawarra are pathetic they can't defend the middle at all.

 

[coast_dragons]

Mathew Head seriously needs a good look at himself leilua at 5/8 and lewis at centre stupid selections.

 

[BlackDuckSaint]

Scariest thing about watching Illawarra. Our depth is pretty poor. We have been blessed not to have the same amount of injuries as the Titans. Leilua is playing 5/8 in NSW Cup. Chris Lewis is playing Centre. If we don't have players that can cover those positions in the reggies. I fear for the First Grade team if injuries strike.

I will say one thing. Is Isaac Thompson the biggest human being ever? He looks MASSIVE

 

[Dragon66]

I thought JD would be the clubs biggest loss this year.
Illawarra playing "Dragons Footy".

One out running, and stand and wait in defence. What a disappointment. A better side on paper than last year but playing like a bottom four team atm.

Head is looking like been a huge failure if this is the standard of response to his coaching. Probably working under instruction from Mary.

No one in this team is putting their hand up to challenge for an NRL spot.

Host and Lawrie trying hard, some flashes from Dufty and Luc but not much else.

 

[coast_dragons]

Leilua kicking lol then kffl rushs in taking none one lol.

 

[coast_dragons]

Goes to show even at NSW Cup level having a proper set of halves help.

Head again not picking Payne at 7 and Nona at 6 basic stuff.

 

[coast_dragons]

They have flat out given up already pathetic.

 

[_snafu_]

Illawarra look shithouse.

 

[coast_dragons]

If the Dragons rush in and defend the same way Manly will destroy them.

 

[coast_dragons]

lol and thats game.

Steam rolled his opposite 2 times the second from back line move with good ball from Dufty chiming into back line
