Round 17 - v Dolphins

[Dragon David]

This home game has to be a win for us but the Dolphins will be hard to beat after their loss to the Storm in a very entertaining game. Do we have the enough speed to outrun the Dolphins? Say what you want.

The Phins are a well-disciplined and coached side. If they make minimal errors they will flog us just like they did in the first game. Dragons just cant compete with a team that makes no errors. This is the start of a very tough run and it will be a real eye opener to where we sit compared to other teams. We will need a lot of luck to win this one.

2pm Sunday at Jubilee, $1.90 each of 2 at this stage.
Our record in Sunday games generally not great for some reason.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Dolphins play for the full 80 minutes. We don't do that - yet. Dolphins have to start favourites but we are not without hope.

 

[Dragon David]

Our defence just has to be spot on and our attack will need our handling to also be spot on.

Can we put in a full 80 minutes of tough footy on Sunday afternoon at Kogarah?

 

[Illusion]

No their backs will burn us .......

Was going to start thread but thought you might.
Playing at Jubilee I will be there all being equal.
Tough game we owe them one.
Being at home a. big chance.
They will play for the 80 min
Also unlucky to lose to the Storm as both scored great tries.
We usually go better and home so let's go boys.

I watched that game last night, Dolphins were throwing good attack at them right up to the 80th minute.. they are a bluddy good side.

But at home and fired up.. we are always a chance.. not sure about our 3 origin players..

 

[justadragon]

This week's results have gone in the Dragons favor to maintain 9th spot on the ladder, now it's up to the Dragons to do something or we will be swallowed up fairly quickly and find ourselves not too far from the bottom. Its time to man up Dragons !!!

 

[since77]

Every time this year I've expected a bad performance they've surprised me and played a good game and won. So I'm going to do my bit and predict a crappy performance. That means they win now right?

 

[RedVee]

I’ll be there on Sunday but not expecting a win. Hoping though!

 

[56to66]

We have a rough month of footy ahead, a must win at home. Saints by a 1 point will do!

 

[SnowDragon]

Ok, I’ve called a dragons win.

not sure exactly why, but it feels like this is our start to a puch to the top8. We missed a few games we needed and are behind the 8 ball due to the draw remaining, but I think we can upset the fins after they game it all last week

 

[<StGeorgeDragons>]

If that same Dragons turns up that was there Sunday then there’s no way we win. Lost the unlosable match . Still bitter about it.

boys need to grow a pair

Our record in Sunday games generally not great for some reason.

Our record in games on days that end in Y has not been great.....but only for like 12 years or so.

Flanno and the boys need to go over the tapes of our last Dolphins game and a couple of this years' Dolphins losses and come up with a whole new game plan. We should have beat Manly, we really should have but we let them win, Nathan Brown came out and led the Manly forwards in a fightback and our forwards shit themselves and our backs played like the reserve graders they are, apart from wonder boy Lomax who instead dropped the ball about eighteen times. Is Suli back ? I effing hope so and I want Finau back in the team too - send Tuipulotu and Max Feagai back where they belong. Hopefully Hunt, Suá and Lomax can replicate their post-SOO heroics from Round 14 and play like men possessed again.
As I said earlier, in the first half against Manly we created 6-7 opportunities to score and blew all but 2 of them. We need to stick those opportunities and make them count and then go on with it.

 

[JubileeJeffro]

If we want to make the 8, this is a must win game

 

[Victoire]

I'll be there. Not with the highest hopes but Kogarah on a sunday arvo is always a nice time.

 

[sammymills]

Who do we get back this week? Bird? Suli? Sele? Hopefully if Sele is back it means Lawrie to NSW cup but it prob wont. Bech should be JDB to come on like a man possessed, BMM, Luciano and Couchman

 

[Gold_Coast Dragon]

If Hunt executes like he did against Manly, we lose by 40. If he executes like we did against the Tigers we are half a chance.
