oh well, I think the girls played well, just couldnt handle the Broncs big boppers in the second half. Wraps up a pretty forgettable weekend for the Dragons in all grades.

They went with or had the better of the big Rorters and Donkeys for long periods of both games but definitely need some more big bodies of our own to go with them for 70 min. At least for now. Ours is a young squad. They'll keep getting better. With Berry and Reh in the team, they must.

Remember our girls are playing Parra this afternoon. With the NRL team beating top of the table Canberra and NSW Cup drawing with runaway leaders of that comp (gives us a lot of hope for the finals when we inevitably play them again), now we need our girls to finish off an almost perfect weekend.
Unfortunately without Reh, Bostock and Berry, arguably our 3 best, I think it might be difficult.

Berry is the best. Not even arguable.

Anyway all the best to our girls, the suspension Berry got was crap, it will be difficult with those three out, keen to see how the new girls go.

Missed the first half. Was watching the bludger of a NQ-Shonkies game. Without the 3 I mentioned previously, surprised they are winning. But second halves have been our undoing. Hopefully can turn things around here.

They are hanging tough Eric, lost Mcgregor, and as usual penalties against

Yep, the Eelettes were too strong in the second half. Losses are coming hard and fast on our Dragonets.

Too many injuries, too many penalties, tried hard, could do with a couple of big boppers, we need our stars back

18 year-old Ekepati looks to me like she is going to stay in the team for a long time but we have so many of fast outside backs. But lack the "muscle" of other teams have in the middle. What pissed me off more than anything was the f**king commentator losing it when Parramatta scored to go ahead. It was very obvious he wanted them to win but is it too much to ask for just a bit of professionalism?

I feel sorry for them with what they have gone through so far in the year.

Familiar story. Our girls were just out-muscled by a much BIGGER team. They actually did pretty well considering they are without Berry, McGregor, Law, Vella and Bostock. Berry and Law in particular would have been vital with their strong carries through the middle. Though some of the teenage outside backs are not going to be very good, they are very good already. Ekepati, Millard, Paseka and Reh. Going to have lose some of them because there are just too many to fit them all in.

Yes a 20-6 loss to the Sharks. I think that this is the girls third loss in a row. Just out muscled by their opposition and we do have many out injured. I hope Nathan Cross can get things turned around for the better for the women.

Whilst we have the suspensions, injuries and certainly no big boppers, we are going nowhere. The team spirit is good but getting into the season now we should be starting to show something, we lost a lot of players but we have probably the best womens nursery in the state. As Cross said we need to start winning and winning now.

Being without Berry was always going to be hard after she carried the team last year. They have consistently been able to go with strong teams for long periods but in the end the bigger opposition wins out.
Give them a bit of time. They're a very young team.

Lets hope this game doesnt cap off an immensely putrid weekend for the Dragons

Its looking that way unfortunately Justa.
What a damned terrible weekend for the Dragons.

And as always the Dragons play another team that hasn't won a game back into form. We have the biggest womens and best women's nursery, FFS get some big boppers, plus we lost Southwell. We rely on Berry and other speedsters meanwhile we are getting smashed.
