I give up, after struggling to get somewhere and we let the FB run the length of the field, we are so far from being a decent side its not funny.

Have a lot of injuries. Plus would be better to play with 12 and without the coaches boy.

He just so inconsistent. But even still, I'm in favour of him and Finau being the starting wingers for the rest of the year.

Wow just Wow, good fightback but threw it away in the end,

That bloody try by Weekes just before half time was the turning point. I wish Kyle didn't kick the ball short, bastard.

Most of our players don't screw their heads on tight enough justa. Most of their brains spill out which causes them not to think properly to do things right on the field. It was a good fight back but the horse had bolted and we could not do a Broncos over the Bulldogs fightback unfortunately.

I've been really on his case recently. After that game, I'm only going to be on his case more. But that wasn't his fault. The kick was on.
Interesting game to be at, as usual Canberra fans fail to show up even for a Saturday arvo game when your on top of the ladder the stadiums half empty. Extra interesting being that we were sitting next to that JeanClaud instagram dude that got his account banned and his little group of mates, can confirm first hand the guy is absolutely as much of a flog as you expect.
Rocks and diamonds game, first half hung in there only to finish the half letting in that sloppy run away try and another early in the second, they cost us that game. In saying that the no try call for the forward pass didn't look it from our angle but would have to rewatch it. All things considered super happy with the fight back at the end, not letting it run away from us, down on troops and I'd guess about 45% possession but fired back in a game everyone had us as absolutely no chance in. Walked away thinking we shouldve had it but happy we stuck with them.

Liddle gets his foot to the ball, could be Gutho scoring..
The other Weeks try where 6 players missed him was shocking and the one where Allen completely missed Weeks as well was shocking as well, its nearly impossible to miss a player like that..
Thought Flano kept JDB and Klemmer off for too long..
Saw lots of improvement in the team the last 2 weeks, just stupid errors cost us..

I felt the effort was there. However, a 67% completion rate just wasn't enough for us to gain the ascendancy.
Yea, the second one in particularly atrocious. That and the gutho Sloan mix up (again) lots of good effort on the line only for costly mistakes and some lazy effort to cost us.

Was Guler injured?
I don’t blame Flanno for that kick, could have easily been a try our way if Liddle has a smidgeon of luck with the bounce. Freak try for Weekes, just extremely unlucky

Performance was much better despite the loss (taking into account the cattle on the park), so many individual mistakes that are easily preventable.
Corey Allan and Villi Fifita just aren’t NRL players
Sione Finau and Sloan so similar, have highlight reel moments but there’s just a load of inconsistencies in their game
Moses Suli a different player compared to last year, Love LKT but didn’t play particularly well tonight
Gutho a protected species, am worried about that 3rd and final year of his contract and what he’ll be playing like then
Tough to go and best 1st place raiders in Canberra and overall did well as a team, would have been nice to jag the win considering the fixtures ahead but ah well

Good effort considering we just didn't get the luck or bounce of the ball and some dubious referee decisions. But the reality is you simply cannot win games with a completion rate of 67%, also too many errors .
Raiders targeted LKT edge and he was found out in defence, made 27 tackles but missed 6 that is not 1st grade standard im afraid.
Both our wingers were very good tonight, Sloan should have had a hatrick but for a really poor call in the first half.
Canberra forward pack had 5 forwards run for 100m +, we had 4 forwards. I thought for his 1st game in 1sts this season Molo went well. Didn't help Guler appeared injured and that was really the difference between the engine rooms.
Kick return metres again was poor but we did try and really could have won that game with a bit more luck against the new favourites to win the competition.

Not a big Ricky fan but you have to give him credit where its due for speaking his mind, some very interesting comments regarding Kyle and the media in general and I whole heartedly agree, all the bullshit they literally pull out of there arses for clicks is out of control nowdays.

Haven't read but can I take a wild guess and say Mr Stuart, a rival coach, was strongly defending Mr K. Flanagan? Funny really. If that's the case. How little he thinks of the brains of Dragons supporters.
Considering I literally told you what its about yes, what a crazy wild guess.. It was more directed at the media, which I agree with, and a small group of 'fans' but take it as you will if you bother to watch it.

Sir, I read your comment. You only said you agree. If he said Mr.K. Flanagan is a funny joke of a first grade halfback, I'd also agree. But I wouldn't expect a "rival coach" to say that. FFS do you think a rival coach would give us honest advice? I was asked to be less aggressive but this is too much. I just can't.
