[Wobbygong]

Plenty of it out there last night. A delight to watch.

Yeah man. I was stoked. Interesting when they have Weyman and Hunt at prop and Merrin in the second row they seem to play much tougher.

Weyman seems to get hunted when he plays in tandem with one big guy but when there are two he is dominant and holes start to open in and around the ruck.

The Dragons made a lot of running metres tonight. They put on lots of hits and really dominated the ruck. They beat the Manly forwards at their own game.

I wonder whether, come finals time, we should go Weyman, Young, Hunt, Merrin, Creagh, Scott to start then sub in Green, Cuthbertson, Prior and Fein at an appropriate time.

Even Gaz fired up after Matai's swinging arm into Nightingale. I don't think I've ever seen Gaz fired up like that before

The mongrel factor is currently zero .

I started this post in Round 2. Unfortunate that it is still being revisited. Unfortunate because it has proven to be correct.

I watched every game this round and they could be summed up in one word..."WHACK". That is the sound of big boys colliding. It's bloody hard out there. If your fullback gets tackled on his try line expected to sweat blood and tears to get over the 30. You will get smashed. Suck it up and get outta there.

But not the Dragons. We don't race up off our line. We don't put on hits. We will let you stand in tackles. You can get heaps of offloads away. And if you belt our mate, we will watch.

Sad really. Our honour is on the line against the Storm. I don't expect to win. But I want to see a punishing defensive display. We need mongrel.

So Where's the Mongrel?

Will be wearing #11 tonight for the Sharks.

 

[God-King Dean]

I think it's got jack to do with mongrel.

Did they lack mongrel when they won 9 in a row, & when they dominated Manly?

 

[Willow]

It's obviously mental, a hard one to overcome.

But footy is unpredictable, no such thing as a sure bet.

We see it time and time again that a change in form can happen in one week.

HAVING been told by renowned former Bulldogs hard man Kevin Ryan during the week to find some mongrel, second-rower Frank Pritchard duly delivered against Cronulla last night

Mongrel exists and all the old timers know it . I've never seen a team in the Red Vee win a grand final without a least one exponent of MONGREL not one . All hope however is not lost the good news is in our pack one Beau Scott and when 100% fit will do the business.​

No excuses but how do you get up for a game like the Roosters last week when your looking to make a statement after the prior 3 weeks. I'm looking forward to this game against the Storm actually and the Warriors would be a true Semi final tune up also.

Agreed.....2 Dragon greats Tough as Teak Kevin Ryan and Billy Wilson now they knew what the true meaning of mongrel was

Our forwards are copping a hammering in the press and media lately, surely this must fire them up.

There's a million years worth of distance between being a hard man i.e Kevin Ryan , Terry Randall or Bluey Wilson and someone like Hoppa and you know it you old shit stirrer
