Egan is a middle playing on the edge for mine. Best asset is his rugged attitude in defense.

Atkinson's best game this season but given his others that is not saying much. Flanagan is still so ineffective with ball in hand. Has to go, no room for him at the club anymore.

Setu Tu has turned round his sloppy season in his past couple of games. He is a keep now.
To be fair, I think that’s the first time all year that both our 6 and 7 played straight and direct, made a huge difference attack wise and put the broncos defence under more pressure. Much better overall.
Our 1-5 all played their best games of the season, made plenty of meters and looked threatening. Fantastic performance right from the kick off and you could see the whole team was on the same page for once

Unless you want him catching a ball under pressure

The secret to our improved attack was our second phase play. Keeping the ball alive makes your attack more potent yet we rarely use it. Yesterday we did and looked far more clinical..

He contested a couple of bombs yesterday.

Lets now back that up with a win against the sharks ......... My biggest fear is if they do win and win a couple more games here and there they will give the gig to Young ........

Vals second was magical, firstly knocking down that wayward pass from Reynolds, then his kick and finally his scoop, both done at near full pace

Any one better you have in mind mate if he does. I say give him a crack with a good roster next season, he deserves it given his loyalty and passion for the Red V.

Normally agree with a lot of things , but not this one ....... Have said before need someone completely outside the club that can't be influenced by the people already there ....... Passion he has , loyalty he has , but to be coach long term not quite sure ........ I hope he proves me wrong if given the job ....... But we don't want to make the same mistakes they have made over the last 10 years or so .......

I think the Couchmans and Stewart have been by far our best 3. Then Cook then Luch, IMO.You doom merchants. I had it correct, Luch had a heavily strapped leg so Deano was being cautious given we had the game in the bag.Eric hes been better than just being in the top 17, been among our top three players all season. Has earned an extension.

S Flanagan's decision to have them switch sides for some reason was a bad bad mistake, but who could have predicted it? Except maybe *gestures around generally* LITERALLY EVERYONE
Anyway, a very nice performance that is completely replicable - there's no reason they can't do it again and again. Physically dominant in collisions, winning the field position battle regularly, offloading the ball, playing direct up the middle. Keep it comin

We just can not be stupid to think that one win has changed everything. The backs are still not up to scratch and changes are coming ....good!
Our win was a team working hard for each other and Broncos were not. I would hate a knee-jerk appointment for Dean, we have done this before and extended and it backfires badly.

Honestly, at times yesterday I couldn't believe how badly the Broncos were playing. Then again, they were only as good as we allowed. The line speed and lack of missed tackles allowed us to run the ball for about 60m each set while restricting them to 40.

Absolutely
correct. I have been banging on all season if your halves are not willing to run the ball , straightening the attack and taking on the defensive line off the back of an engine room that is now consistently moving forward we have no hope.Yesterday at the ground the first thing I noticed was both our halves running, that unsettled the Donkey's defensive structures and they were continually backpedalling.

Anyone notice who led the Dragons victory song? Hamish Stewart , that in itself tells me what the lads are thinking

I say to anyone that is willing to listen LPT is a keeper

If only! Where has that class tackle by Sloan on a runaway Staggs been over the past 3 yrs. It had total intent and commitment plus perfect timing. If he can now pull off that kinda desperation in defense and we cant nail another quality outside back he could be a keep as a o/b/ fb utility. Tyrell is safe under the bomb, still super quick, has good discipline, game awareness/ball skill and still only 23. A no brainer.
