Creagh to Replace Gasnier at Centre
St George Illawarra Dragons Coach Nathan Brown has made only one change to the side that was named last week to take on the Eels this Friday night at Parramatta Stadium.
Centre Mark Gasnier has succumbed to a calf injury and will miss the match with Ben Creagh named as his replacement. Clint Greenshields has also been added to a five man bench with one to be omitted.
The Dragons last met the Eels in Round 13 where the Dragons came out on top in a thrilling match 8-1 at Oki Jubilee Stadium.
Unavailable Dragons are: Mark Gasnier (calf), Shaun Timmins (quad), Corey Payne (concussion), Wes Naiqama (ankle)

I'm putting huge cash on the Eels . It's at Cumberland and Clarkes the ref .

 

[Hutty1986]

How did Best keep his spot??
Poor decision..

 

[Slippery Morris]

As long as Bailey starts they will be fine. Have a feeling he won't and if that is the case the Dragons may struggle.

 

[Sticks]

How did Best keep his spot??
Poor decision..

The bulk of the 'poor decisions' in this game will come via Steven Clarke, he will deadset go to town on us .



Sticks

 

[wildmooka]

The addition of Greenshields to the bench is interesting...

 

[Willow]

The addition of Greenshields to the bench is interesting...

Indeed. Something else going on in the backline.
Winger perhaps. It's hard to ignore where the tries were being scored last Sunday.

 

[Sterling]

The bulk of the 'poor decisions' in this game will come via Steven Clarke, he will deadset go to town on us .



Sticks

were both in the same boat .....

 

[Willow]

I think there's a few clubs which have a Steve Clark story to tell. What history has he got with Parra?

 

[Dakink]

Other than Clark is just plain crap...

*Edit* Constructive I know, but I couldnt help myself.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Is Charlie Leaano injured??

When I heard about the eels lack of props I thought it would be the ideal time to whack a big bopper like Charlie into the action for 10-15 mins at a go.

Colin Best was horrendous at times last week, but I'm sure Brown has horsewhipped him in preparation for this game. 1 bad game I can forgive - I hope it remains that.

 

[Willow]

Unfortunately, this is far too common sight when Best is 'defending':

P.S. and sorry preacher, but I beat you to it. ;-)

 

[Father Ted]

He looks so lost does'nt he . If i were the coach I'd just make it simple for him . Stay with attacker closest to the try line simpie .

 

[petetheileet]

true that...remember that broncos game down at win last year...bott did that to him 3 times!!!!

Are we sure???

 

[Father Ted]

Are we sure???

Wouldn't surprise me if Head dropped out late to get that leg right .

 

[The Preacher]

Unfortunately, this is far too common sight when Best is 'defending':

P.S. and sorry preacher, but I beat you to it. ;-)

No worries Willow, isn't it pathetic. Looks like he should have the green jumper on 6 months early. Just who could he possibly be "lining up" with that positioning.

Coach talking to Best;

Q. Colin what's your thoughts on defence ??
A. It helps keep degate straight, coach !!:roll:

PS. If you come anywhere near this thread Wicks, I'll jump through the screen and kick you straight in the "jatz".:x

 

[Father Ted]

It's a "how not to play the game picture" He's turned his back to the play and he can't see the ball . It sort of answers the questions about his reads in defence :crazy:
