Who are the halves and who is captain in your 2012 premiership contending line up?
Mate, every second one of his posts says he wants Hornby to fake an injury and Style to go into the halves.

Ah dude, we won and you're still unhappy.
Drain, you got me, I didn't read the whole thread but I was more interested in who would be captain.
Reyter, would it be fair to say you don't think the job of captain is a particularly important one other than him being the guy who can talk to the ref?
Important but a captain has to be playing well enough to be part of the team. If not, he should not only not be captain but shouldn't be part of the top team.
ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZZzzzzZzzzzzZZZZZZZZ you are so boring. I'd rather talk about Prior with BBC all day than read this never ending bullshit.

I wasn't referring to Hornby I was a referring to your solution of having 4 part time captains.
Well your post said Cooper is first choice when fit (he hasn't played every game since god knows when), followed by Young when he is on the field (plays 60 minutes and is always a chance of having to miss a game with his knee), then Hunt (plays 60 minutes because he's a prop) and finally Creagh (the only one likely to play 26 games and 80 minutes each game).
If Cooper stays on the field for the rest of the year, then no issue with it but would you be willing to bet on that?
Prior was WOEFUL
Can people just get off his back, i thought he was strong especially in defence.Dont forget he is a backrower who has been asked to play out of position by his coach.He saved one try with a one on one tackle on sau early in the first 1/2 & also helped contained uate pretty well also.He does a better job than scott everytime when asked to play there.Lets give him a chance once he is given the opportunity to play in his right position on a regular basis.On another note how tough & inspirational is young always prepared to take the tough hit ups coming off our line what a champ he"ll be a big loss.
I want the Dragons to win too much to just shut up about it.

Yes, I am pretty sure we won.Are you serious?
Yeah, good to watch wasn't it? Of course we still have plenty of work to do in improving on that - I suspect the players and coach agree.Reyter said:With the forwards and outside backs carving up the opposition like the Dragons were
And any other team can have tries wrongly disallowed as well. Perhaps you missed the earlier discussion on this.Reyter said:any other team would have won by at least 30.
Would you have been happy with another three tries?
Two of the disallowed tries should have been tries and there was at least one definite bombed try.
Not all from kicks, at least one was. But your criticism of a try being scored from a kick sounds like you're looking for reasons to be negative. Bringing up the previous week's game is further indication of this. So there's little point debating if you're just going to run circles around your own argument while looking for something else to latch onto.
The point is, the attack was very good at times - the finishing was the issue. If there was more ref intelligence/commonsense and maybe a bit of luck, we may have put 30 on them. But that's football. Good teams still win even with bad ref calls and bad luck. The fact that the Knights were not thrashed was due more to good fortune than good managment.
It's the final execution that is under question. We won the middle of the ruck easily. If the forwards keep getting that right, then the big wins you seek will follow.
Nope. 100% Vidot's fault. No need for him to come in so far on that play. Misread.
