Fair enough,but overall i think benji has done way less than widdop in games and has been given the capt duties(therefore rated higher).Benji was the only Dragons player to make a line break, tackled and kicked well and took the ball to the line before passing it. I agree he didn't have "a great game" but was the only Dragons player who can hold his head up after that.
Widdop made several mistakes, never looked like doing anything in attack and once again as he does every week, didn't take the ball to the line as all the top line halves do. The main difference today was even when he passed a few meters before the line, they were down around the receivers knees or up around the head.
Give them time??? have you lost your f**king mind??? The regular season has started. Trials are over. We are out of time!
So your solution is to move Dugan back to fullback and Aitken to centre like last year, so we can proceed to be the 2nd worst attacking team in the comp?
Is that what will get us out of this?
with respect Giboz... is Mann the player we want at FB?
Granted its round 2 mate...

Both halves had a shocker today but so did the rest of the team so who knows.

Benji didn't have a shocker. Widdop had a shocker but as I have said repeatedly, his "composure" you homies keep raving about isn't enough.
WTF does that mean anyway? I always though it means that as he never does anything (good) of note, he must be "composed".
A big shake up is not a shake up unless we rest Nighty....love him, but unfortunately, age has caught up to him
Both halves had a stinker,simple as that. Praise benji all you like but how many tries did he put on,score,set up etc. Benji is past it,at least widdop has age on his side.

Man had a shocker today. Most NRL coaches would drop him. Will Mary drop him?
Fair enough,keep telling yourself that but both played crap today.Widdop never arrived to pass anything. That is the difference.
You guys could be the next walker bros duo.Our head coach is not of NRL standard. The sooner everyone can accept that the better.
I take no delight in being right all the time, I really don't.
But dead set, Vas and I can do a better job. All it takes is a little smarts, something you so called experts lack in spades.
Straight Shooter
As for the coach, last time I watched a game, he doesn't drop the ball continuously or kick it out on the full.
Ultimately the players make the coach. Rarely does the coach make the difference.
For years Bennett coached the QLD state of origin side masquerading as the Broncos.
Take the big 3 from Melbourne and Bellyache is a flop, simple as that.
Fair enough,keep telling yourself that but both played crap today.
I hope they both have a blinder next week cause the rot needs to be stopped now or we will give up too much of a gap in an already tight comp.
