I was worried about this game all week, Parra have a way of derailing our season of late.

We needed that come from behind win. We've struggled being behind this season and there will be more important games this year where the boys will be able to draw on that for some self belief.

Great to see the young guns get a run and do us all proud.

We showed a will and skill to win tonight, I for one was surprised.
Graham really fires up the whole team, his passion for a club he’s only played for for half a year is amazing.

Last year we would have dropped our bundle and lost that game, this year they had the belief to be able to pull it out of the fire.
Amazing.

You guys are all dreamers saying well done, we pulled it off, great work.....what a joke.

They are LAST.
Wake up.

Yes we won, but what a shambles.

Fair enough if it was against a top 6 team.

But it was against the laughing stock of 2018.

Can't stand desperate supporters.

The Dragons didn’t win this game !

Parraletic found a way to lose the game.

That was the worst game I’ve watched all season.
Dragons just didn’t have any intent, enthusiasm, energy to win.
May the footy gods help us next week against the storm.

I’ll take the win, and happy to just move on and forget this crap game.

Some were commenting prior to the game that we could rest all our rep players and still get a comfortable win. I was not at all convinced of this and was quick to remind others how close the competition is. Any team can beat any other team in the right conditions. Parramatta were very good for more than an hour, and lifted as many teams do against front runners. We were flat and it was annoying but given the disruption I definitely think a 'well done' is in order for finding a way to get the two points.

You realise we’re fans right and enjoy our team winning?

The type of ‘spray’ you are giving might be one a coach gives his players who get paid hundreds of thousands a year to play professionally.

In saying that if I was the coach I’d give them a pat on their back for backing up and getting the result despite most probably being exhausted. Shows the players you got their backs and will help tighten the team.

I think you need to wake up. I can’t stand people trying to bring others down when really we should all be celebrating as fans.

Great win!
The internet here in Helsinki went down @ Fox live scores at the 76th minute and we seemed done.
Seeing the score 10 minutes later was one of those moments you live for!!

Those kids'll grow an arm & a leg next game they play.
A confidence boost that'll build mental toughness all round!
Mary will now trust those young guys more I suspect.
Bet they're still singing.

- Thank god for Will Smith! Lol 4 in front and you go for a 40/20 with minutes to go? What a deadshit!
- Dufty keeps improving, signs of a great attitude. A few games ago I though he’d had a Lachlan Coote type career (nothing wrong with that), now he looks like he could be a cut above.
- Geez, didn’t Hunt need that kick to come off! He plodded around for 70 odd minutes, visibly low on confidence and unable to pull anything off. I think that try not only saved this game, but saved the season for Hunt.
- deBelin was gassed very early. Out on his feet for most of his time on the field. 2 weeks off will do him good.
- Host was very comfortable in first grade. Leilua was most comfortable as a short minute impact player. Lawrie is getting better. Nightingale adds nothing from the bench.
- Graham is basically carrying our pack at the moment. Like the Dogs game, if he doesn’t play tonight then we lose!
- lol@Parra.

Mate, I am not going to praise a poor performance. You got to stay realistic and balanced.

Too many let's print the premiership t-shirts now brigade on this forum.

Celebrate wins but cut the crap about playing well.

Not our best effort by a long shot but it was the type of game we would have lost over the last couple of years. Graham was brilliant considering he and Widdop had flown to and from the States and played a test within a week. Many of us wrote them off and were quite strong in the way we bagged them. Some posters went very quiet at the end. A gutsy win by a team with players running on empty, but we were poor at times. Hunt is not only down on form, I think there in no doubt he is playing injured. He doesn't run and when he is forced to, he seems to have lost half his pace.

Go back 12 months & we lose. Sure, the win wasn’t pretty but I take the following:
-We have some depth to rely on(Host was good & I thought Luc was busy)
-We have a resolve to guts it out
-Dufty is a match winner again & becoming ever so valuable in tight situations. The kid is good.
Up the Saints. Top of the table b*tches.

Bang on. Mentally they are a much stronger team this year.
Amazing is right.
