Round 20 vs Eels

[stevedragon]

This has been one of , if not the worst years ever.

I think I have only been excited three times this year.

The two golden point wins and Duffy’s try against the roosters

That’s it

And that’s sad

I'm with you Smurf

[Eatons Hill Dragon]

Is it just me but I thought Josh Kerr actually played pretty well last week.
Ran hard, supported up the middle and worked well together with Vaughan in the second half.
Reward is dropped and replaced by a slow Latimore.
Does this Clown (our Coach) watch the same game or am I the Clown.

 

[KogarahWarrior]

Mcgregor; what a f**king idiot.

 

[RufusRex]

Latimore love has cost us Timm could cost us Kerr ..
It is seriously so f**ked up.

Embarassing

 

[Mickthedragon]

Wouldn't care if he named larry, curly and mo in the team.
He's an imbecile, period.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Dufty clearly didnt do enough last game. Did nothing in the three minutes he had on the field. He had to be dropped. Rep star Kerr had to be dropped as a lesson to other players that no-one is guaranteed a spot in the side.

 

[brissiedragon]

How do the two worst centers in the Nrl continue to be picked every week

 

[BLM01]

We need Mary to keep picking the plodders as increases our chances of making his decisions look bad.
And you cant drop Aitken he scored a try last week over Mary's 98 metre field line.

 

[41yearsaint]

How do the two worst centers in the Nrl continue to be picked every week

For there solid defence and potency in attack. Lats and Kaufusi off the bench provide the same.

Yep, let's reward a retiring player over an up & coming player, who happened to play well last game.
Make perfect sense to me, hence, while we are 3rd last on the table.

It's selections like this that the board need to come down hard on McGregor.
They should be trotted out as one of the many reasons he got sacked!

We can only hope.

Just fill in the blank...............

 

[Dragons 09]

Our season is over so there is no excuse for not mixing things up a bit. The team McGregor has picked is a team he thinks will at least go close and hopefully relieve the pressure on him. No thought for the season ahead, no thought of giving a kid a go, no thought of trying something different, just a selfish and stubborn vision of trying to make himself look good at any cost (probably at the cost of some young talent)

I'd like to see him admit the season is f**ked and come out and publicly state he's throwing caution to the wind and already looking at our future and maybe name a team along these lines.


1. Zac Lomax (He’s the club’s best fullback, Dufty will never cut it, make the call now)

2. Jason Saab

3. Gareth Widdop (Won’t be here next year so get him out of the halves and let Hunt & Norman gel)

4. Mikaele Ravalawa (We don’t have any decent centres so why not give him a shot. Rufus might be on the money with this call)

5. Tim Lafai (You’ve got one job Tim, take the kick returns with power and get our sets started)

6. Ben Hunt (He’s a running half who just doesn’t like the pressure of team management. Let him run, not manage)

7. Corey Norman (Played his best footy the year before Moses arrived at Parra when he owned the team. Give him this team as Benny clearly doesn’t want it)

8. James Graham (30 minutes flat out and then a rest. He’s not an 80 minute lock Mary!)

9. Cameron McInnes (c)

10. Paul Vaughan

11. Tyson Frizell

12. Tariq Sims (Tempted to give Jackson Ford a run here)

13. Blake Lawrie (Can go for long minutes)

Interchange:
14. Josh Kerr (Give him at least 30-40 minutes and tell him his future with us depends on it)
15. Korbin Sims (If i was certain Timm was staying, i'd give him a go in place of Korbin)
16. Patrick Kaufusi (I want to see if he’s a keeper or a Millward mess)
17. Luciano Leilua

Is it just me or does anyone else think our reggies would give our first grade team a run for their money?

 

[Jbjbjb40]

Hornby and Young are off contract at the end of the season. They will be thrown under the Mary bus to save Mary.

Sad to hear. I’m sure between them they could come up with something better than poor old Mary?

 

[Dragonsamy]

Ran hard, supported up the middle and worked well together with Vaughan in the second half.

Eaton agree with you
But Mary had to fit his mate Lats into the team.
Unbelievable

3. AITKEN
4. LAFAI
Game after game, year after year, contract after contract.
I just cannot understand why these guys get selected.....
It does my f**kcin head in!!!

 

[Dragonslayer]

So, the Lats farewell tour begins.
