Lawson & CT when fit. Lawson and Finau next weekend. I would hate to be coached by you I must say
Right, so Gutho, who is our captain and has been our best player all year besides the last 2 weeks is goneski, see ya Gutho, go learn something in reserve grade you mug.
And come on down Lawson, here stand next to Allan and do your best bud.
Oh and Finau, try to be less shit than last week where you were all at sea in defence would ya!
And you better play well guys or you’re gone.

Personally I'd like to see Holmes at fullback. Imagine having Holmes swinging out the back of both sides of the field with early ball he would be devastating. 1. Holmes 6. Gutho 7. LKT 9. Liddle. LKT needs to be given the keys to run the team and let him build some confidence it will only help us next year and beyond.

I like the idea, as long as they dont put Cook in the centres again.

Seriously Pal, what is your issue?

@Redvdragons21 is a relatively new member of the forum and is just giving an opinion on team selections.

Lots of us talk about team selections week on week and don't get the third degree from other forum members about who, where, why and how.

FMD he isn't selecting the team mate, he is just putting his two bob worth forward, if you don't like it, fine, just move on.

Do you not want to see new members on the forum? It would appear that way with the way you're harassing this bloke like some desperardo.

Take your passive aggressive, uninformed opinions to the JA side of the forum if you aren't going to give new members the time of the day, ya flog!

Agree unfortunately Cook is running on old legs and his heart is still at Redfern

How good was our linespeed at the start of the game!
Then all of a sudden it was gone and back to waiting for the ball runner.
I looked at the clock and they hadn't even lasted a whole 4 minutes!!

Sloan's non attempt at tackle on Staines was the most disappointing of all.
Not sure why Suli is turning his back on the ball in the air, and not sure why Gutho was way over on the other side of the field and not in a position to assist.

We have to do something about our defence...linespeed, aggression, commitment, formation etc.
It will flow through and improve all the other parts of our game if we are not always giving time, space and field position to the other team.

The most frustrating game I have watched and the first time I have ever switched off before half time.
I am tempted to watch a recording because apparently we made 12 linebreaks to WT 2 but I am cautious as I am not sure I can take much more stress and frustration.

You are being harsh, the fast line speed lasted longer than 4 minutes; maybe 10... but it was noticeable when it reverted to waiting.

This gave Luai too much time to place his kicks nicely and put Gutho under constant pressure from the oncoming players.

The Su'a drop absolutely Duttoned us

Sums up following the Dragons for the last decade. Even the best possible outcomes have the worst results. Drop the ball over the try line, other team picks it up & scores. Have a bbq with a few team mates but it's against covid protocols. Sign up the most exciting local prospect to a long term deal, he requests going to the eels halfway through the deal. Pick Shane Flanagan, end up with his son as our halfback. f**k.

Btw I thought we played well for most parts of the game, our errors unfortunately led directly to tries. West tigers got very lucky with their rushed 5th tackle options.

It was way more than 10 mins but it showed we can do it, we need to build on that this week. Not just the line speed but also the force in our tackles was awesome. There's hope & positive signs. We rushed their kickers on 5th tackle but they were still able to put in some good kicks. A bit flukey on their part imo. We need to compete on catches with our attacking kicks though, Tigers did it all game & it led to some errors.

I've seen a few doom & gloom comments & views across social media that aren't justified based on that performance.
