Round 10 vs Bulldogs

[Dragonsamy]

Good times on the forum tonight!
Saturday night. Muzby in Melbourne in lockdown has had a skinfull no doubt. Samy the medic texting away in the back of the dressing rooms. OT will be along shortly to tell us how we are idiots and how poor our comprehension is.
Up the Saints!

Lol your funny but you forgot you sitting in the back ground Sniping.

Why would you snipe the players?

They won!

 

[Dragonsamy]

Great to see Saab looking so happy.

We dont win that game without Clune

When's Saab going to impress. Like a baby in a big body. Think he is a late bloomer that one. Could be something later.

He played tougher tonight than he has.

He's definitely worth persisting with I reckon.

Still green...

 

[Dragonsamy]

Surprisingly strong considering he still has a kids body. He is going to be a big unit when his shoulders pop !

Denis he reminds of Toupo when he started in the NRL.
If he turns out to be as good he will be done well.
What do you think

Best on the ground by a long way

Samy, I thought there was definite improvement in Saab today. I have enjoyed Jordan's whole-hearted efforts and love his humility but that shoulder charge coming back from suspension was really disappointing. I would give Saab a protracted run at the position to gain confidence and prove himself. Look at what has happened to players like Lomax, Clune and Kerr once given a regular spot.

I can see what you are saying he ran over 100 meters as well.
JP is a great back up

He's turning out to be quite the little general.

Great step and sweet kicking game...

They were playing the Dragons , not the Chooks , upset win , so a couple of wins against nothing teams and we move on and forget the last 6 years with this bloke .... Happy for you , but not for me ....

When did I say I was happy with him. I didn't mention the last 6 years. Read before you type

Interesting reading many of the posts here during the game and afterwards.

Its easy to look back and bag a post made during a game. In real time, we react compulsively. Heck i do all the time.

I was critical of Saab and Sims, and stand by those criticisms. Doesn't mean i dont rate them as footy players. Sims is a powerhouse player who has brain snaps too often. Saab needs to show me more. Big, agile, etc but esp in the first half seemed very vulnerable.

Bottom line, we can be realistic that the win was ugly, against a very average first grade side and simultaneously enjoy winning.

Personally, I've given up on the notion of "losing" for the better good. I think Mary will not be coach next year, and can't bring myself anymore to watch a game hoping a loss will trigger a change.

I enjoyed the second half. I enjoyed winning.

So, fook the Dogs, and bring on the Sharks.

Good to see Saab enjoying the team song!

It must be great to be in the sheds and hear them sing that in person!
Go you good things!

Considering the dogs always lift when they verse us and we normally play horribly against them, credit to the dragons in the last 15 mins to keep their composure and lift in defence to win the game in the end.

Exactly it. Played safe and steady in the second half and gave away just 2 points. Our defence picked up in the second and we did have some lucky breaks but that's part and parcel of the game. The rub of the green didn't seem to go our way in the first half and if we went for the penalty goal to make it 12 nil and we did not make those mistakes, then we could have won more convincingly.

 

[Dennis Papaioannou]

Smiling all the time - very happy we got the 2 points. What's your problem?

 

[Dennis Papaioannou]

Grammar.

Do better.

You're being silly...

You're being silly...

What?

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

Great comeback sould have won it easier than that . Well played Clune great game Cam.
May be without similar and Euan next week.
But a win is a win.
Great talk at half time flanno

What did he say? It was a good half.

 

[Kylez3]

Guys it's not about Clune getting more involved, it's actually whether Norman and Hunt let Clune get involved. There's a difference.

Very glad he showed his quality in the 2nd half nonetheless.
