A starting hooker makes 40 odd tackles a game. That and quick service will be higher priorities than kicking.

Cleary is at his best when taking on the line the risk is he does that then who kicks to end the set?

Sure higher priorities but he'll still be able to kick if the coach allows it.

Like any good halves Nathan will have to learn to count.

Say we are on the halfway line. Warriors know Cleary is the only kicker... They will do anything to get him so he is playing the ball on the last.

As will Storm next week. Need Katoa instead of a bench forward so we can use May as a kicking option if needed

Nathan then swings it wide to Kikau and Blake who score

If he isn't running ot on the 4th he won't get tackled and will be available to kick. Also wet weather so there'll be a lot of early kicking.

May is a kicking option without Katoa. He can come on for either Egan or Peachey and still be a second kicker.

According to NRL tonight Cleary was sick last week so was down as a result

I can only feel slightly better about it now. It was still a despicable performance.

He needs to take some vitamin C and win us the game this weekend. The rest of the spine won't give him much assistance. Time to show why he is worth $1,000,000 a season.

I wish one guy playing bad was the only problem we had. He may of been sick but the other 16 also played bad

I did have a laugh when Tamou said in his presser...They just need to play simple footy.

They have definately been trying way too hard in attack the last couple of weeks.

Katoa sums it all up. Overplaying his hand to the max.

They don't seem ready to change their style of football just yet. After 2 and a bit years of Griffinball you need time to make changes.

Its why the top 4 is so important. We need to stay in this competition as long as we can. An extra game courtesy of the top 4 will give us another week to get our shite together.

Whether you attack more or not the same basics are there. Need to earn the right to spread it build the pressure and the points will follow. We aren't building any pressure whatsoever

Keep the basic game plan...Just add a few more set plays. More bigger changes over the off season. Not try to change too much so soon

The thing is, if we make the top 4 from our current position we'll have won one or probably both games against finals sides so our shite will be together anyway.

Note how quickly it turns around. Things now appear rosy for the Dragons on the back of a win over the 9th placed team, after the previous week losing by 36 to the last placed side.
