Round 8 Vs Roosters ANZAC DAY GAME

[randomdragon]

I hope we lose.

I hope we lose.

Yep if we do win they will probably sign Hook to another 3 years .....

 

[redv13]

I hope we lose.

We can’t beat GC or Canberra. I’m sure the chooks will make it a training run. Could get embarrassing when Tedesco and Manu destroy us at will

Will never forget that bullshit try chooks scored against us last year when manu faked to be injured and ran straight through us.

Both Tedesco and Manu have not scored a try yet in 2023. Cue Anzac Day…. I’d be shocked if we come within 20 points of the chooks on Tuesday

The Roosters resemble a spluttering 120y at the moment. You've got nothing to worry about.

We will survive for 50 min then cop 30 - surely that’s the end of Hook then.. bring in Hasler and some UK signings

For me, that UK signing should be Sean Wane, something outside the norm, for Dragons thinking.

 

[slippery5]

Incredibly hard some times due to the dumb arse rule that you can have multiple players in a tackle and one of them with no intention of tackling you but just concentrating on encircling the ball whilst you are trying resist the many opposite forces applied by the others and then they all drop off and the 1 defender left yanks the ball out.

Its a f**ked rule and some teams exploit it to the fullest.

Once there is 2 in a tackle at any stage you should not be allowed to strip the ball that should only happen 1 on 1.

Exactly, it will also encourage some off-loads.

Well if that's what your saying mate like a spluttering 120y , then we are in the coffin

I'm a 53 yr supporter and I can't believe that MM was able to obtain a 1st grade spot after being dropped the previous week because he was nowhere near our best forward in reserves last week, a great example of where as a club we are at no pressure on the top 17 to actually perform . Manu v Amone is a mismatch. Watch for Tedesco through the middle of the ruck after about 20 min. We are out manned and outfgunned and it could get ugly which is very sad

 

[Old Timer]

Tedesco to go through the middle, step, fall when being tackled by JDB and he is either in the bin or sent off.

I wish

 

[RedVee_8]

I wish

You want JDB sent off?

 

[jodragon40]

You want JDB sent off?

No I wish that we will be able to stop Tedesco tearing us apart in the middle of the ruck after about 20 min. JDB can't be everywhere.

 

[Crush]

I hate these games because we usually stand up and show what we are capable of when we are focused and motivated.
Then after beating the Roosters we usually go on to lose to Tigers, Bulldogs or some other shit team. Press conference, boys just weren’t switched on today, blah blah blah.
Finish 12th and repeat….

 

[SnowDragon]

I know there are 2 important points up for grabs. however. I fear that we won’t put in the 100% effort critical to represent he day more than I fear the loss. Boys have to stand up and play with heart!

What dumbass NEW way are these imposters going try and lose this game?….
They are very good at giving away stupid penalties.
They have perfected the art of dropping the ball.
They are number 1 at unforced errors.
The line speed will fall asleep after 15 minutes.
Lomax will kill some old digger in the stands with his crazy goal kicking attempts. And end up in jail.
Musgrove will have the ball stripped and just maybe wake up from his stoned sleep.
OHHH wait they have DONE ALL this last week and the week before.
The chook will put 50 points on these imposters.

The only bullshit thing about that try was that our bunch of clueless morons were dumb enough to fall for it. Dumbest team in the comp.

 

[Dragon David]

If we are fortunate enough to score a few tries in this game, I hope that they are scored near the goal post so that Lomax can convert them. He hasn't been much chop converting from near the touchline.

Lomax has gone backwards while guys like Sam Walker and Matt Burton have improved quite a lot from when they first kicked for goals particularly last year.

Having a reliable goal kicker can win those tight games for the team. Nicho Hynes is a sharp shooter so too is Mitch Moses. Adam Reynolds has gone off the boil a little but because the Broncs can score ample number of tries in a game, Reynolds missing the wide out ones, which he rarely missed a few years ago, wouldn't matter.

I've just carried on like a stupid idiot with this post, sorry.

Lomax kicks 5 from 5 on Tuesday… heard it here first
