Dragons for obvious reasons, but I won't be comfortable until I see Barrett hoist the silverware.

Jobdog,

You sound like Vossy. Is there an answer in any of that or are you going to stay sitting on the fence.
I gave an answer in the first two sentences.

Watch out Roosters, Raiders and Warriors. If Penrith win this weekend the can leapfrog them all.
What difference does it make, you guys won't be making the finals. Only thing you guys have to play for is avoiding the spoon.

Dragons won't win the premiership, they ALWAYS choke in the finals and people are jumping on their bandwagon prematurely.

Eels fans should be the last to talk about choking.

1997 led the knights 18-0..lost
1998 led the dogs 18-2 with 11 to go..lost
1999 led the storm at halftime by 10...lost
2001 dissapeared in the GF

If there is ever a team qualified to talk about choking its Parra.

Yeah and now state all the times the Dragons have choked under the pressure of being favourites.

F**k off you goose, you have no idea.

I never said the dragons dont choke, never said that...but for an eels supporter to say that the dragons choke is a bit rich.
Now go fu(k off...you goose...you have NOOOOOOOOOOOOO idea

Guess what Charlie, we aren't favourites, we won't be favourites and the Eels history of choking is completely irrelevant until we are favourites.

How many times have the Dragons choked under the tag of favourites? Alot more than the Eels, although they've had the tag more than us. Who gives a f**k if we have choked under pressure, we aren't under the pressure of being favourites.

The Dragons are favourites and can stay favourites for all I care, but they won't win the premiership and that's all I said, but you have to turn it into an attack on the Eels. So piss off you insecure keyboard champ.

What did the Eels have to do with anything in my first post idiot? You brought them out of nowhere because I support them, completely irrelevant. But OK, now tell everyone the FACTS that back up what I've said. Oh no you wouldn't do that, because it would once again prove you have no credibility and are an IDIOT for making a mountain out of a molehill.

Tigers are the big worry for the Dragons. Since we put the horror of the first six rounds behind us, Wests have been the only side we haven't been able to handle, and they've done so twice, racing away to big leads. We got lucky the first time (thanks to Gasnier) and were flattered by the final score the second time. Our other two losses in the last 17 rounds weren't anything overly concerning; we had control against the Storm at Olympic Park midway through the second half but dropped off, it was after Origin so meh; and we all don't need to be reminded of the incident that caused us to lose our composure and, ultimately, the match against the Eels. If we can log another clinical victory over Parra this weekend then it'll only be Wests Tigers we need to figure out.

What a clown

remind us when the last time the Dragons swept all before us to win the minor premiership, hammered the opposition in the semi's and then got towelled in the GF.

I can think of once when we were absolute favourites but nothing in comparison to Parra's efforts in 01.

Parramtta = The Champion of Chokers
