This is spot on I think
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs v St George Illawarra Dragons at ANZ Stadium
Its decision time for St George Illawarra coach Steve Price on what he does with Jamie Soward moving forward. When the Dragons are on the front foot, Soward can produce magic but when youre the goal-kicker your job is to kick the goal under pressure, with the game on the line. I dont know whether Soward has become complacent after his signing with Penrith but I felt the shot at goal in the 80th minute was certainly kickable. Price has to make a decision now whether to look to the future and blood Josh Drinkwater or persist with Soward.
There was massive controversy toward the end of the game and highlighted throughout the game following the eight-point try from Canterbury-Bankstown fullback Ben Barba. Barbas knees into the back of Soward were not pretty and I expect him to be charged for that act of foul play. The Bulldogs certainly looked in control and played a patient game for the majority of the match. They are slowly getting back to the side they were last year but I dont think they will ever return to the level they did last year because it is expected while last season they caught everyone off guard.
On the other side, the Dragons struggled. They looked slow and have been slow starters in matches for a number of weeks. When the Dragons hit the ground, you get one of two teams, the red-hot side who play a fast and exciting brand of football or a team that is fearful of losing.
