R1 v Titans.

Imagine how could we could be with a decent halfback.

 

[Lindsay Moss]

His stats refute that. A piddling 45m from 8 carries while with his defense which is supposed to be his strong suit, I saw him jumper grabbing and going third into tackles. Compare that to JDB who almost always is first into the tackle and he never jumper grabs. To be honest I did not see all of the game, but what I did see of Eisenhuth did not impress me. Did Flanno see the same.

Don't know how much you seen but he had good game thought early he was one of our best.

Me too, a ridiculously expensive Japanese restaurant in the City (Bris) for our anniversary. I thought I won't look at my phone or check the score and just watch the replay later. We got in the car and I cracked after about a minute and put the ABC on and heard "the ref is looking at that, I think they'll be a man down for the rest of the game" and I'm thinking oh no DeBelin or Su'a or someone's done something but it was some Union game. I found an FM station calling our game and heard the last 20 minutes, high fiving my wife and carrying on all the way home. Good night out.

I watched the beginning on the way to the airport, missed some going thru security, then at the airport, then I paid to get wifi on the flight to London. But although they said streaming quality it was stop start. But I saw it

downloaded the game and rewatched on the way home this morning. Must say it was so much better than the Ireland England rugby match I flew over to watch.

You can't say Saints fans aren't committed.

I think Flanno may have better eyes than you.

I’m a simple man…this sort of thing makes me happy

And look who is running in to congratulate him, good onya Ben.

Did anyone notice our last try was Liddle to Kyle to Hunt to Sloan and over for the try. Literally our Spine putting on a try 9,6,7,1.

 

[FlickFlano]

You mean hooker to halfback (wearing 6) to five eighth (wearing 7) to fullback.

Give it up dickhead

Give it up dickhead

You know what your problem is?

Not ruthless enough.

JDB

I am alluding to him playing lock where Eisenhuth played because our new coach likes to move guys away from their career position to one they have barely played in. I speak of JDB and Zac Lomax. At lock Jack normally runs 100m, tackles everything that moves using the perfect technique, no jumper grabbing. He has also often slipped into receiver to add some spark to our attack.
He does not have the physique to be an impacting prop. Hello Flanno put a prop in a prop position and not a specialist lock.

p.s. For some reason when I talk up Jack I cop plenty of flack. Just saying that what he has done off field has NOTHING to do with what he has done on the field. And that is give 100% every game over many years for his beloved Dragons.

I would not take that insult from a veritable newbie with only 380 posts to his name.

Yeh how bloody rare is that.

 

[baggygreen man]

Sloan following the ball runner excites me after seeing his trifecta. His taking on the defense is eye catching at times but his backing up and scoring has added a new dimension to his game.

On the contrary. I’m an equal opportunity sledger.

I welcome abuse from any direction.

Perfect technique? Is that why he's been suspended for Hip drops and sin binned for 3rd man in at the legs?

I hope they continue to play like this. So undragon like.

What I can’t get over is the no look pass Liddle threw to Sloan, (after the break he made up the middle). I watched it several times and it still baffles me, Sloan wasn’t even in the picture when he threw the pass.

Yes. Beautiful ball. Liddle is a classy player IMO.

 

[steerlerbab]

To'o will be one winger and Ado Carr will be the other, unless injuries or suspension play their part. McGuire has also said that Suailili is in his plans. Plus Bradman Best and Kotoni Staggs will definitely be in the mix, even if they are centres. Lomax has only played one NRL game on the wing

For Origin, don't also forget Latrel, Turbo, Campbell Graham and Crithon. Lomax is well behind all these guys in origin calculations.

And the one thing we know Belta is that the longer they play together the better it will get. Sloan will have many opportunities around our forwards and hooker, he is learning and credit to him. The three try's were evidence of his improvement. Yes we will have bad games but we must continue to support and instil confidence in the types of players like Sloan.
