Either Mr strange or Marketo MUST be on the bench. Rein simply can't be trusted over 80..
Nielson should consider himself very lucky to be named ahead of the cutters lads.

 

[Hills Dragon]

Well if it ain't broke don't fix it I guess. Oh, hold on........

 

[Hills Dragon]

Nielsen's lucky to get named ahead of Stephen Hawking.

 

[Mr Red]

Nielsen's lucky to get named ahead of Stephen Hawking.

:lol:
Sad thing is he is probably rated by Mary as the premier centre at the club..

What would Hawking know?

 

[Jubileeboy]

Nielsen's lucky to get named ahead of Stephen Hawking.

:lol:
Candidate for post of the year.

 

[Cagey Mac]

Or it could be: Name last week's team after MNF until you sort out the mess
IMO 3-4 changes

I'm thinking similar.......
Surely Merrin must start....

Merrin or Cooper. Rose should never start and used once the opposition is pre fatigued.

More worryingly is the centres being named unchanged.

More Price-like mind games. Part of the Dragons Footy game plan!

We beat the Tigers this week, or we can start preparing for the 2016 season and start blooding some young players.

 

[Dragonnic]

Everybody deserves a second chance guys. Lets see how they go. Its only round 1.

Lol, it's only round 2. But he needs to make changes fast, not sit on his hands like Price did.
I still think one of our big problems is having too large of a squad to chose from...their is no clear cut top 17 and this has been the case since Bennett left. Might sound silly, but have a look at the amount of hookers (4) and centres (5) he can choose from, most with first grade experience. This has to create some doubt and confusion for the coach.

mary is a DEAD SET D H PICKING THE same team with those horrendous centres

 

[rasaint]

Heart breaking Matautia, Aitken and Runciman's all in 2 nd grade. All faster than the 2 in firsts. We can not win IMO if Neilsen and Farrell playing unless tigers only allowed 10 players on the field.

Does Matautia owe McGregor money and won't pay up? Goodness me dear dear oh dear

Does that mean tired?

Does that involve using live Rabbits?

 

[coast_dragons]

Mata'Utia is possibly injured he did go off over the weekend but Runciman and Aitken at least deserve a go.

 

[BalmainBoy_1969]

Should be a good game, both teams looking for the right combinations. I think it will be a good indicator of things to come.

The Dragons are playing tight defence through the centres. The Tigers (while they have spark), don't like that.

Anyone's game.

 

[Craig93]

Will be good to see how we go this weekend. Th storm are very well coached. Hopefully with some improvement in attack we can get a few try's and get the 2 points
