3 tries is good. But that grounding for the third looked so awkward. Bloke has some serious speed.

Hopefilly we can get him to reach his potential along with Sivo. Both potential superstars. Although both have some areas to improve before being a bigger asset than liability in the NRL.

Tyrone Phillips looks half decent but given our salary cap situation I wouldn't resign him and instead rely on the likes of Sivo, Too, Tuisese and the gun outside backs coming thru from our junior sides. Mansoure & DWZ will be our first choice wingers for next season so we only require decent back ups for next season before any of the junior stars may be ready to put pressure on the incumbents.

We have our backline set. Minimum wage deal would be my offer to Phillips. Too is Crichton's replacement but plenty more in waiting if needed. Billy Burns also should come in

What about Liam Martin?

Contracted for next year. He and Burns resigned for 3 years last year

I suggest get your ticket early. This game looks like it could sell out. I would suggest even pre booking GA tickets as ground is capped at a tick over 20,000

I'm happy for the club, but I'm one of those who doesn't have a seat so

 

[BxTom]

I hope to get there this weekend!

Ring them in the morning, or a break time during work perhaps. I was just getting the info out there so that folks aren't dissappointed.

Memberships are great to just enjoy the crowd without the fight for a seat

22,500 was the 1st round crowd. I see no reason why this week won't match that

Would you like 3 of them? I'm offering my season ticketed seats for this game as I can't go.

More people should do this when they can't attend

Yeah we'd have better crowds. The members areas always have spare seats.

The crowd is capped these days due to safety to a little over 20,000

Mate, thanks a ton for the offer, but I managed to snag 2 in the eastern grandstand already. Much appreciated though.

This is interesting.

Still work to do on our first halves.

No worries. Enjoy the game.

Mmm stats. The Dragons are top 8 in both so I am officially declaring this a hard game for us in contrast to some of our soft games.

Easy to be 1st when they have the same 13 every week... Attack especially is easier with the same guys all training together

We are 2nd for points against. They are 1st the difference is 2. The difference is the 50 or so difference in point scored

That 50 difference is because they are a good attacking team which will hurt us with our edges being so unstable due to all the shifting.
