If we drop the ball like we did against the Dragons we will get smashed. Guess the only positive is an away game where we seem to go okay. My team 1. Dugan 2. Monaghan 3. Croker 4. Joel Thompson (Vidot) 5. Vidot (Low) 6. Campese 7. McCrone/Mogg - Attack still looks lost 8. Shillington 9. Buttriss 10. Tilse 11. TLL 12. Harrison 13. Fensom (JT) 14. Carney (interchange hooker since Tongue isn't ready) 15. Thurling 16. Logan 17. Thompson - Troy actually played pretty well last night although won't complain if Mataora takes his place.
Have we already played them? Dragons at home (either of their homes) will be extremely tough! Currently sitting top of the table with 8 wins from 10 games, scored 225 points and only let in 91. Five of those games have been "Home" games and they've won all 5 comfortably! This team is big, strong, can score from anywhere on the park and have a good defensive record. Our only hope is that ARL spring a sudden Rep game on us and 6 or 8 of their players are unavailable on the day!
Last year they were the team to beat. we did. It's a must we complete our sets. Once thats done then we can put different attacking options into the place.
Good point and potentially Dugan. So assuming all that: 1. Milne 2. Monaghan 3. Croker 4. Vidot 5. Low 6. Campese 7. McCrone/Mogg - Attack still looks lost 8. Logan 9. Buttriss 10. Tilse 11. Joel Thompson 12. Harrison 13. Fensom (Picker) 14. Carney (interchange hooker since Tongue isn't ready) 15. Thurling 16. Mataora 17. Thompson
I read somewhere that Bellamy said as good as Dugan is, Hayne and Kidley will be there before him. Blues coach Craig Bellamy says young gun Josh Dugan not yet ready for Origin By Bonny Symons-Brown May 16, 2010 http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,27132427-5018993,00.html Edit: added link
I think we have a huge chance in this Draagons will have a second grade team because of SOO I camp and raiders will only have couple of players out.
Boyd, Weyman, Costigan, Morris, Cooper and Creagh may be missing. It'll take a tough effort for us to win this game. Especially since we never seem to win against you lot
Fensom this week apparently and ABC radio said Tongue is having surgery on his groin injury next Tuesday will be out for 12 weeks.
Just saw this is the channel 9 game..also NRL.com says its live at 3pm...I'm sure that cant b right tho..??
