Round 4 v Storm

flanno MUST look at how Benji used his hookers.... 10 mins before half time should be liddles time to carve like da silva did

Yeah Da Silva offers a lot of energy and speed, but doesn’t have anywhere near APIs guile.

We were talking about the decline of stefano at Melbourne today on wt forum.

He talked himself up and the storm system all over preseason and now he’s in the side, he’s been on extended holiday and ex rooster mate at work says he’s done.

I’m pleased to see Illias back in the side and I’m looking forward to career best game.

I'm pleased Flanno is rolling the dice with some new blood in the forwards with Egan and he's sticking by Stewart too. Hope they both rip in.
Even if Egan just adds some starch to our defence it will be an improvement.
Will be interesting to see if Klemmer can add some much needed go forward.

I see how Flanno is doing. He is actually doing what we have been missing, and whinging for many years with previous coaches that never listen to us.

Introducing the juniors before we lose them!

Stewart and Egan will make a good impact off the bench this weekend, and it will rock the game. Adding Klemmer to the team as well on the bench will add further firepower. 3 big forwards is what we need.

There is no hooker in the game with Api's guile. Maybe W. Egan, very underrated with ruck deception and ability to roll it. Give Da Silva time, he's young and learning but hes an outstanding prospect... your mob are in a good spot, great young players in key positions

We are normally planning Mad Monday by round 4 and while we are at it, book ahead for the season after that. We are shell shocked tbh. We don’t know what to do!

I’m sure flanno will have everyone on their toes. If you can beat them, it will be an almighty lift.

I said before Kasey badger is not qualified to referee any rugby league game. Not even park level or even under 8’s. Her husband Gavin the original Ref Vagina badger was so incompetent he never got appointed an NRL grand final. Well Kasey has learned and copied his incompetence.

That’s one almighty spray. Impressive.

It’s gone into Bay 4, but we are going to back to Harry’s Photoshoot in the Melbourne Morning Herald. We have a decision.”

Draw the inspiration.

If my young lad was swearing and being a prick to Reggie, I wouldn’t have any objection to him copping a furry paw, so long as no real harm was done.

A good idea for a video game. You play Reggie who has to defend the good name of South’s and clobber as many sharks fans as possible.

Then at level 12, you have to beat off a hysterical Karen mum with your magic carrot.

Francis can do the voice overs for Karen.

how good is this. I'm sure he will do the jersey proud he is definately a big part of our future along with Stewart and the rest of our upcoming forwards, just seeing his best mate Stewart so happy for him probably talked about this as kids and now it's finally happening.

"The club I grew up supporting"

You cannot put a price on that these days.
We need more love in the club for the club wherever we can derive it from.

Kyle Flanagan and Sloan pointing to the emblem a la Dean Young, same thing.
Coach is not banning that celebration.

We need our players to generate this version of the Dragons and get us back to being a club of significance. Egan and Stewart in as JDB brings to a close his career works well for me.

All of above agreed.

I am a bit annoyed of why and how lot of tipsters writing us off against Storm. I am not laughing as we expect to lose in fashionable way due to their stocks are so called performance experts.

Dragons beat their full strength Storm team last year at their home, and this year Storm are missing 3 key players but Dragons have a better team than last year.

Maybe its an excuse to lose to Dogs and Souths. We were against in tips and predictions leading to round 24 last year with them but ended up won by 2.

Two close losses has taught the team that they need to be 'on' for 80 minutes. Win or lose, this week will be their best game so far.

Forwards and halves are not up to it. We need 2 alpha props and a top-grade halfback. Flanno should get himself a new recruitment manager and a new defensive coach.

Don't wait and waste another season.

I tend to agree with you. But given what we've got for now, I wouldn't be surprised if they play their best game to date.
