Round 9: Dragons vs Titans

[Willow]

Any way to see the game live? Apart from flying to Gold Coast. I hate Sunday 9 Games being delayed. If not, Triple M at least broadcast it live.

It's the one game of the year that's actually local to me.

Watch out for spoilers.

The worst game of the week to watch is any game Ray Hadley is commentating.

My greatest fear is that Nine seems to be grooming him to inherit the top job when Warren steps down.

Isn't there an option in this digital age to just have the crowd and on-field sound with no commentary for free to air? I think its available on Fox broadcasts (or was).

If someone's developing an app for that, I'd donate actual dollars to their kickstarter

Thankyou Godz - someone else who agrees with me. The guy commentates like he is still on radio - like we can't see what is going on.

I hate watching the game with the sound turned down, but with him commentating I spend more time abusing him than the players...

Finally a youngster geting a run, Hope he does himself, the team and us proud.

Hey OT, happy with his hairstyle?

 

[Fingerbang]

Apparently a new Sony tele coming out soon where you can balance the sound in favour of the crowd noise instead of the commentating....by percentage. Does that make sense? I know what I mean.

Yes he is pretty average on TV, he gets me frustrated listening to his TV commentary. Don't mind him on radio.

I actually have issues with Bolts as an individual - he is one strange character.

His commentary style is like listening to Frank Hyde on 2SM from the sidelines back in the 70s.

Ah so you live on the Gold Coast do you? I hear it's a great ground to watch rugby league on. My old man lives on the Gold Coast he is also a massive Dragons fan but unfortunately he has converted to a QLD supporter. Willow are you NSW or QLD mate?

Wot??? Frank (When Irish eyes are smiling) Hyde, was an absolute gentleman in ever respect. Fancy even mentioning him in the same breath as Hadley.

Wonderful memories possum. Just a shame Tiger Black could not sing.

 

[hardbaby]

So many possibilities. I think this will be tough. The makings of a good side is there. But there are some issues. We should beat the Titans but the boys will have to play really well. Dragons by 2 in a thriller.

 

[centralsaint]

Green played for the Cutters today so I guess Quinlan or Dugan will make their debuts for the dragons on Sunday. Has the squad left for the Gold Coast yet?

 

[possm]

Could it be:
1. Dugan
2. Quinlan
3. Stanley
4. Cooper / Green
5. Nightingale

Any news from The Captain's Run?

 

[coast_dragons]

Dugan didn't travel and Green played today so Quinlan will make his debut on the wing

1. Nightingale
2. Quinlan
3. C Stanley
4. Cooper
5. Vidot

 

[centralsaint]

Dugan should of played for the Cutters for match fitness. He still should of travelled with the boys to feel his way into the team. Strange decision :crazy:

I'm somewhat bemused myself. I can only assume this decision was reached after thorough investigations of all relevant particulars.
