Round 25 - DRAGONS vs Bulldogs at SFS (Sat 7:35pm)

[RufusRex]

I am 2 for 2 on these threads so absolutely going to start the next one.

Desptite Dean not talking about it the battle to avoid the spoon is really starting to manifest.

COME ON YOU SAINTS !!!!

If we only get 1 more win this season, please let it be this.

I hate Canterbury so much and this 2026 iteration of it is particularly distasteful. We haven't beaten them since 2022 - Andrew McCullough scored a try that day ffs. That's way way too long. It would be a sweet way to bookend a bleak, pitiful era for our club, and herald the beginning of a shining new era of success. Imagine the sheer joy of putting the final nail in the coffin of the Dogs' finals hopes, then imagine that it also doubles as a slamming shut of the mythical premiership window for this Gould-Ciraldo era… while at the same time hinting that the very same window may just be very realistically coming to into view for our club. I can imagine it! Wow.. it’s like a menage a trois with schadenfreude and pure joy (and me). Please let me have it

Plus I want revenge for Vegas.

As far as a "style match up" goes, there’s not a more suitable opponent for us. That is: A dour team who don’t know how to score points. If we do enough to get in front they won’t throw it around like the Tigers did. The Galvin-Preston short ball will be aimed at Lyhkan and Val’s edge so they need to be good, thankfully Hamish is there to help. I like us for this. We can do it

Yes, we can do it. The wins we have had will help our guys want to win more. Just got to shut down their usual dangerous players and off loads. Great defence will win it for us.

If Hamish outplays Preston, he might book himself selection in the Australian team.

This report from Paul Crawley is interesting reading - I cannot get over that Fryzell incident as well.
