Round 8 vs Sydney Roosters

[Edward]

Want to smack these arrogant pricks, especially after manu faking injuries in the past against us.

They saved their best for the Dragons last year.

 

[Illusion]

Thank you. I'm getting old

I can't believe they dropped D.Young ....... It's a good things for us , just me but I highly rate him as a winger ........ Can't see him being left out of their team for too long ........

Dean Young! Now there was a team leader. Compare him to the one that cannot be named who left last year.

 

[Ryan]

Compare him to the one that cannot be named who left last year.

Zac Lomax? Great club man, average centre, good winger.

horrible defensive issues for a while

Or Dragons saved their worst for Roosters games.

Sloan not any better for us ......... If I had a choice of any of our wingers or him it would Young .........

How good is it to see the name Sione Finau in the top side finally and he is next to Val. These two proved a dangerous combination in the trial game.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Sloan not any better for us ..

You dont think so. For mine he has improved in every aspect of his game. Shame he cant cut a line to shreds as often now he is on the wing.

My brother a life long Roosters fan says we will win on Anzac Day.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

I'm bettin it'll be Gular.

You got it. But LPT and FL are hovering in the reserves list. Stewart makes way but Egan next as his numbers have dropped off. Plenty of brawn but no skill. Stewart will be back at some stage.

Talking about his defence ....... Young Sloan may have defensive issues but they can turn a game with attack ........ For me there is too much on defence and I know it is important, but you also need to be able to score tries .......... You need one or two players that can turn a game like Sloan and Young ....... So I was really surprised that the Roosters dropped him ......... Yes Sloan is improving and I hope one day he will be our Fullback ........

Not this year not this year

Sloan may have defensive issues

Showing more intent than in past. Stopped a bigger man in his tracks last week and also pulled off a timely one on one. If he wants to be our long term custodian he has a good mentor in Gutho.

 

[RedVHeartbeat]

Not this year not this year

Yeh our AD track record aint all that great against the Chooks.

I havent been there the last 2 yrs

 

[GCRV]

Zac Lomax? Great club man, average centre, good winger.

Another big name.
I was always a Lomax fan but I think have to give Flanno credit. He wasn't getting the job done at centre.

 

[Dave03]

If the roosters wingers rush up to stifle our ball movement in the attacking 20 then I'd like to see a little chip kick over the top. Our wingers have the acceleration to catch those little chips imo

 

[Dave03]

Bench make-up will be interesting. Stewart is far more athletic than guler. Having guler, lawrie & luch all similar in athletic ability on the bench worries me a little.
