They played very well in the first half, scoring some lovely tries, and let no points in while a man down for the first time in a while. Yes, there were some defensive lapses down the left side that need to be addressed, but once again they had a 2/1 penalty count against them - many of them cheap - which didn't help. In the second half the Dragons held down twice as long as the Roosters on many occasions and weren't penalised once, and there were at least three blatant flops that the referee completely ignored! The penalty for Smith's tackle after the ref had called 'play-on' was ludicrous! Any other time they call the player back to play the ball!
The team won what is always one of the biggest games of the year, no matter what positions the teams are on the table. There is no need to be anything but happy about the win and look forward to the new combinations getting stronger and stronger!

Players looked filthy at full time realising it never should have got that close. Not much celebration.
7pts scored in 3 combined 2nd half's in a row.
Still more questions than answers with this team.

robbo has a good track record. yes he hasn't won the comp every year but he's got a good track record and every chance he gets the team humming sooner rather than later
Compare that to a lot of other sides like Dragons or Titans for example, we can categorically say they will not win the comp.

Yeah im basically saying we have the ability and the roster to win the comp but not based off current form. I can see Robbo and the team bouncing back and humming right at the end of the season but we seem very far away from that at this moment.

wont be much disruption during origin, so a good chance that things should only get better.

With sitili,walker,Angus,lodge, Watson coming back and getting match fit, the shuffled backline, there is huge potential for improvement, just gotta beat the teams we should for now, and stay within reach of the 4.

Origin you'd assume seamless given we can just throw Manu back in the 1 jumper. I think JS will get picked on the wing for NSW but should have the depth to cover him with Momo and maybe Pauga.
