Interesting sidenote is that Luke Patten is a video referee. Don't expect any favours from him.

 

[Old_Timer]

So that is it Willow? Were is the call to arms, the bold predictions, the warm fuzzy optimism.

It reads like an executioners list.

 

[Willow]

Are you always this depressed?

But you're right, your thread was a ripper.

 

[saints4ever]

You can always make a call to arms old timer. Nothing and no one stopping you

 

[Willow]

lol. It's alright. Saints4ever will most likely recall that in the early days of this forum we didn't have so many members, and I used to do these all the time - call to arms included. After a while there were plenty of fellow supporters doing it and I very happy to step back. But I just noticed there was no thread this week, and very little info on the game. So here it is.

Old Timer, you might be only 80-something with a Gen Y attitude. Most old folks get over the sense of entitlement. But I tell you what, next week, you fire them up and I'll be cheering from the rafters.

Back in WORL I used to see you, thommo4pm and creagh as well give boner inducing posts when times were really tough in 03 and 07. Be good to see them again for old times saje at least lol

 

[Inspector Gadget]

Thanks Willow, watch out for Master Frizell to have a big game against his former team mates......well we can only hope somebody has a big game (on our side).

Not worried about Patten, just glad to hear you are still warm and breathing. Good to hear from you...

 

[KiamaSaint]

HardcoreDragonsFan is the man to call us to arms. No one better than him, where are you son?

 

[Willow]

We've already had that many tries disallowed this year. Some of the decisions were pedantic at best - interesting that the obstruction rule gets slammed when it hits another team. Patten is a rookie at this job, hope he stays away from the button.

Haven't watched too much of the scum, they're pathetic off the field. I'm assuming they've been adequate on the field with 2/3. Narrow win over Titans, beaten by Souths, and coming off a big win over Warriors.

On the upside, I look at what could have been in the Brisbane game and know that we only have to reproduce that first half form... and stay with it.

We'll be back.

 

[grandorient]

Absolutely, we will be back.

I'm one of the most optimistic old bastards here and I still reckon we can upset these Sharkies at their home.

C'mon you Dragons, get amongst it.

GO

You're right.
HCDF is rock solid.

But in one of his last posts, he said he had a job in a US ski resort, over his uni holidays.

Hope you are OK Hard Core...
Remember.. don't eat yellow snow!

[Fire]

Earlier in the week I wanted to lose this match, but now I don't give a f**k.

Just win boys! Just win!

Youse used to be able to throw Range Rovers through brick walls! Let's go back to those days! Cronulla have been busy working on their tan and twirling ribbons and putting on lip balm and shit down at the beach.

Let's smash these pussies!

Fire up Mez and belt the f**k out of these merkins!

Rip Gal's f**ken head off!

Bitch slap that f**k head Beau Ryan!

f**ken let's go Saints! Do it for this emblem!

CHAAARRRGGGEEE!!!

 

[Old_Timer]

Are you always this depressed?......
.

No I am a victim of circumstance, exasperated by chronic "Priceitis".

 

[Old_Timer]

....Old Timer, you might be only 80-something with a Gen Y attitude.

Fancy associating me with that lot? That has cut me to the bone Willow. What with their girly haircuts, lolly water drinkies, brazillians, and the social mores of monkeys.

Most old folks get over the sense of entitlement.

Not this one Willow.

..... you fire them up.........

Fire Gen Y up? Big ask that one LOL.

Ok give me several twopenny bungers strategically placed in their rectums and knowing that lot, they would probably mistake the bang for flatulence.

Generation Y indeed!! In my day we drank beer so thick (tooth's old) you could chew it. And yes, we actually had hair on our testicles. It used to take a bloke all of five minutes to pack it all back in, at the mens rest room in the Carlton Rex Hotel. I was ambidextrous, I could do it in 3.

He is.

Keeps talking about the old days and how degenerate we are now.....

 

[jezmond]

Since the beginning of the week I have had the feeling that we were going to get smashed by the scum but as each day has passed, my memory has faded of our previous matches.

Chances are we will get smashed, but the true fan inside of me keeps saying that we will pull off a great win tonight... it happens every game day, no matter how well or horrible the team is going.

I'm predicting an 18-10 Dragons win. Beale and Frizell to shine! Come on boys!
