Play it regardless of conditions. Used to love watching an old fashioned 'mud bath'. I was knee hi to a grasshopper in my first ever live game the '63 GF and it rained for virtually the entire 80mins. Was a famous game as the iconic GLADIATORS NRL statue was born that day..

Bartv has now confirmed it . Was not doubting you Jd. Honestly, a wash out, this is rugby league played by big boys not wimps, with 'mud baths' a norm of the past. So is Ressies also a washout as that is being played at a waterlogged 'Gong' too.

Half Time (8-10 Down):
  • Crazy conditions.. gale force wins.. balls going backwards.. first grade will be interesting..
  • First try disallowed, CST playing ctr and obstructed a defender.... shame.
  • Came good though with Glover going through himself and had a runner either side but went himself and got the try.. goalkicking not rly possible in these conditions unless maybe in front.. 4-0.
  • 3rd opportunity on their line and they penalise us for not touching the ball when playing it.. fmd.. thats never called anymore, half of the players dont touch it..
  • Both teams very physical up front.. finals teams.. eventually we get one Ilias getting a ball out to Ramsey who gets CST away.. who just backs himself and noone is gonna stop him. 8-0.
  • Lyric saves a try with a contested Cleary bomb on our line but then they get one on him later.. Cleary with a very late offload and Lyric wasnt quite able to push the winger into touch.. was a fair effort from the try scorer.. ffs Cleary kicks it from the sideline easily with the wind behind him... 8-6.
  • Relatively soft try off a rough call.. Ilias sort of rushed up off the line but Lyric wasnt quite there yet (he was the marker) and it left a gap for an easy one.. 8-10.
  • Couple of errors in there Buchanan and Williams come to mind.. in a tight game against a team on 14-straight.. those moments could be the difference.. but we are in it....

Standard for Dragons to get hammered in a rule crackdown.
Jake finished for the game now.
Interesting to see the wing swap, protecting Lyric, he's been very average last 2 games.
Wind behind us now, time to bring it home.
Yes I noticed the swap. I hope we can use the wind in the second half and get a penalty or two going our way.
