Game day battles Stain

[Griffoshark66]

The great man stays at 100%

I didn't watch the first half but I must say never in doubt, lads!

Gee Xerri looks world class with some confidence behind his back.
Moylan back is great, such a must in our team.

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Good win boys, got the bye next week so that’s effectively a 4-pointer.

Needed that that’s for sure.

 

[roboshark]

Sj and Wade back after that??

 

[sandshark]

Sj and Wade back after that??

Apparently yes.

 

[Griffoshark66]

Pretty low quality game all round. Dragons 1 on bench

But a win is a win I guess

It's never easy against those merkins. We dominated them. Score doesn't really reflect it though.

 

[roboshark]

Yes good win

Just lots of errors for both. Mainly them

 

[wibble]

Well, we did enough.

Dragons are an injured rabble, so we should have beaten them, though we made it tough on ourselves at times.

Just as well Moylan returned. He was brilliant (and yes, had a few errors as he does) but what he did best of all was bring out more from Xerri, and Nikora, and Dugan (because he forced Dugan back to centre, where he was OK until he did his best work of the season by taking out Frizzel).

 

[wibble]

Morris selected for NSW. Bummed for us, delighted for him

 

[imasharkie]

Moylan in = we win
No Moylan = ?

 

[Frenzy.]

Moylan in = we win
No Moylan = ?

Still win.

Second half was 16 vs 14 men plus the refs turned on them as they got gassed and couldn’t get out of their own way.

 

[M2D2]

Moylan in = we win
No Moylan = ?

we lose, dugan going off means we would have had no real FB.
But maybe in that scenario Jed isnt there to smash heads.

 

[President Trump]

Could and should have had another 2-3 tries.

 

[Card Shark]

So could’ve they , they deadset bombed 2.

 

[Tiger Shark]

Still win.

Second half was 16 vs 14 men plus the refs turned on them as they got gassed and couldn’t get out of their own way.

No we don’t

 

[wibble]

Could and should have had another 2-3 tries.

We are probably leading again this year on bombed tries. Last year we were right at the top for line breaks but only middling for tries.

So could’ve they , they deadset bombed 2.

Realistically, Hunt and Feki bombed 1 each for each side, and Capewell and the whole Dragons team (after their break down field from the wayward Fifita pass) had a chance at a line break that may have been a try if execution was better.

Dragons had a chance to catch a bomb and score. Capewell also had an off chance if he'd dived lower. So probably 1 bombed each and 2 missed chances each. Dragons also had a bit of luck with the try they got.

 

[carcharias]

Any news on Dugans head injury.
That looked painful.
Imagine knocking out Frizell with your face.

 

[Card Shark]

I think them losing Frizzell hurt more than us losing Dugan, particularly as they were already short on reserves, as he’s their forward leader.

Well done Duges!

 

[Mr Angry]

Any news on Dugans head injury.
That looked painful.
Imagine knocking out Frizell with your face.

If we are serious about the concussion rules neither bloke should be playing for a month, that was car crash level. It is just footy, that is the brain.

Both failed, so had one.

Glad they ruled out Keary.

 

[Quigs]

Did you see the mess that the Storms fullback ended up with. His scone looked like he had been in a knife fight. He got a 2nd clash later in the game.

He was involved originally with the head clash that took the 2nd rower whats his face (Furnookcan) out of the game. I reckon the fullback should of gone off too. At least for a check.
