  • Will the Dragons hit 40?

    50, 30 & 40 have been conceded in our 3 home game losses so far....not really inspiring for the home fans....why so?

    Averaging 40pt losses.

    Looks like atm other teams prefer playing there instead.

    Surely the occasion of Anzac Day in a packed house will light a fire in them...right Robbo?

    Then again Dragons are synonymous with fire so hopefully the word "pride" is used a lot this week.

    Is Robbo back from his holiday yet?

      Where did he go?

      The Easter show?

      He's been on paid leave for a few years now.

        Crichton and Smith are back which should help as they are two good defensive players, it also means Mark N likely comes onto the right wing which should mean less mistakes out there. Dragons aren't a particularly great team either so would be disappointing if the Roosters weren't at least competitive in this one.

          We might improve to only a 39pt loss at home which would be a victory.

            They've beaten Storm & Manly last 3 weeks....they will be favourites.

              Val Homes will have a field day if Young is playing.

              Which side does Sloan play on?

                From my recollection of Saints attacking plays, Holmes attacks on the left side (will be lining up on Young’s side)
                Sloan on the right wing.
                Both are dangerous attacking weapons , Sloan has incredible speed.

                  I reckon if any team puts on 40 pts in this game it will be the Roosters, i don't think the Dragons will forget last years result.

                    I think we will win this by a big margin.

                      Nothing so far this year suggests that will be the case.

                      Angus & Billy back will help attack wise though....but its the defensive issues that are glaring.

                      When was the last time we racked up a big winning margin against anyone?

                            Gotta change a few things up for sure.

                            Young out, Smith in. Watson to 13. ZDC to 9. Radley or Angus to start from the bench.

                            Makatoa to start.

                            Bench: Spencer (need so much more), Losalu, Foketi, Radley/Angus.

                            Gloves up for 80 boys.

                              A sand castle.

                              A couple of heavy waves come through & it just washes away.
