Round 1 v Cowboys

[Dragonsamy]

Sounds revolting. Better you than me mate. Hope the knee is holding up in the humidity.

Mate hope we get there because it's a friggen long why home.
But if we play like I know we can we will give it a red hot go.

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

Jimmy you say the Dragons will lose before ever single game dude.
Face it, we will win more than we lose and be playing finals again this year, hopefully we go one or two steps further this year than last year.
Go the mighties!

Do you also do Lotto?

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

Yes, I really don't think the Board worries about things football, I'd say they go with the CEO recommendation. Johnston is in favour of an extension being awarded to Mary as soon as possible mainly because he believes Mary is the best person to hold the team together given the De Belin distraction.

Are there any public quotes attributed to Johnston which validates that allegation.

For all we know, McGregor’s extension...it will happen...could have been predicated by WIN Corp. coming on board and Andrew Gordon’s involvement.

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

The cowboys will be pumped as they are doing it for flood victims.
We need to get on top in the forwards.
Let hope we can do so.

I reckon Saints match North Queensland’s forwards; it’s the frailty and inexperience of the back three that provides concern.

Dufty isn’t a bench player either.

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

Off topic, but isn't it funny to see the bulldogs demise. They are a desdset rabble. How far they have fallen. They were a club that would put pressure on the coach if he didn't deliver top 4 only a few years ago.
Now they'll be lucky to avoid a wooden spoon this year.
Suck shit!

Still think both the Titans and Parra will vie for the spoon this year.

This doesn’t say much for Canterbury.

 

[Saint_JimmyG]

Why do you think the board want to sign him sooner rather than later.
One of my biggest gripes is that our new CEO has been appointed as a 'Yes Man' to the board instead of judging McGregor on performance.

There is no other reason to sign him early.
Its not as if Manchester United or the Dallas Cowboys want to steal him from us.

I’m more wary of the Andrew Gordon/WIN Corp. Johnston may well appear to be beholdened to the Board, but that’s the way democracy works.

Jimmy
If I was picking the team I would have had Kerr on the bench not Duffy.
Re dufty as I have said before he either plays fb or not at all.
Hope I'm proved wrong but.

I would’ve had Robson, but what do I know?

*Waits for the smart arses.

Hopefully we will see Robson soon.
He wasn't to bad in the C.c. cup.
