Your Predictions On Where We'll Finish

[mortz]

i predict you will come between 1st & 16th
i predict you will win some game and lose some games
i predict you will have some injuries
i predict you will blood a rookie

It's going to be funny to see how wrong Gaba is when we prove you wrong

 

[Bulldog Force]

Ben scored a great razzle-dazzle try in 08 in a game that meant nothing to us. Brent Kite has a big heart not only for the team, but for the game. Jamal Idris is someone to look out for. Played only a handful of first-grade games and that was enough to get him nominated for the Aboriginal Dreamtime Squad.

Roberts can be outstanding but he can also be very mediocre. Depends a lot on coaching and as Tim said, who is his halves partner.

I'd like to see Roberts and Barba at 7+6, you'd have to watch the game in slow motion to keep up with them.

Ben Barba is a star waiting to shine, unbelievable talent.

Roberts and Barba in the halves... where do you suggest we stick Noddy?

And "in the garden" is not a valid answer

:lol: - I'll give you that.

Finishing higher than last has a 15 in 16 chance in 2009

Noddy would make a good hooker, he has good defence, passing and kicking game but I think his attack with the ball is too predictable for half from what I've seen of him at the Sharks.

 

[dogz08]

Hooker? lol

I agree with Bulldog Force's first post, 5th to 8th.

You guys have the makins of a good team. Maybe not good enough to make it to the semis', but certainly make other teams restless from 8 up.

This is a year of getting the groundwork right and next year, well who knows.

2008 was a disaster for you guys, and although no one in their wildest dreams would consider me a Doggies supporter, I was sinceerely saddened by the result. Canterbury has always been a hard, determined and talented side and the next few years will wash 2008 from your minds.

I just hope that Saints finish well in front, and think they will, but at the same time I wish you guys every success.

Perosnaly i dont see much from the dogs-BUT if get crocker my opinion will change-with him 7-8 without 9-13
Use also lost tonga and matua-I dont think use replaced with as good players as these two.Plus your backline is worrying-Your forwards seem workman like at best.I do expect hickey to have a big year thou

 

[Rabbit toes]

With Noddy fit, upto 6th position

Without him, I reckon yer looking at 9th or 10th on for and against

 

[SuperSoward]

spooners!!!!!!!

 

[richies]

well really it all comes down to injuries!!!
if patten out could be near last

i reckon 9-12

 

[dogz08]

if patten out could be near last

Where not a 1 man team. If Patten is out this year some time, we have players to replace him

 

[dogz08]

spooners!!!!!!!

School holidays has started early i see

I like the Dragons supporters like you - you guys actually have brains

 

[isaiah]

same as last year
halves are old and predictable unless barba plays
forwards hardly strike fear into anyone's heart

 

[The Preacher]

Bottom half of the 8. Once you're in the 8, anything can happen. You've bought well and Tadpole will have your mob playing good footy.
There's a good feeling around the place, everyone seems happy, and that's a good sign.
Good luck for the season, I know quite a few people at Canterbury and enjoy going to games with them (I get looked after pretty well when I go. ;-)).

We'll see..


But there is no way that we are getting the spoon again

 

[love my saints]

If thats the case, I expect the dragons to finish 15th-16th, cause we have a much better team that the crap you guys have.

easy there champ, lol, jasdragon loves to stir, you guys have a pretty impressive lineup to be honest, i think the dogs will start slow, but coming storming home, top 4 for sure.

as for the dogs having a better team than saints, gotta disagree..... you have signed well, some great players, but not near saints' standards ( hey, saints and dogs dont get along.... gotts keep some rivalry happening)

but i think it will be a great year for both teams, and who knows, saints dogs grand final is a real possibility in 09, fingers crossed
