Glad to get the 2 pts. We played crap again. Our forwards look soft and were outplayed. Bird got us home...

Our forwards had to do twice as much work than the opponents cause Bird dropped the ball 5 times puma. Jeesh

we are a very tough side. But a very stupid one at the moment

Built zero pressure the whole game and still scored 3 tries and should have been more

Imagine if we actually played half-decent and completed our sets.

Yeah mate for sure, it's just different winning games from our work without the ball. Our defence is great just these handling errors and penalties are out of control.

Dragons were lacking go forward a couple of years back but now they are a very strong up front. We did well and held our own.

sharks of old would have got belted tonight. We struggled to win with 80% plus completion. We had poor ball control and discipline last year but more skill that masked those aspects of the game.

Even though the dragons were depleted and had an early positional change its still a decent win in terms of the fact we never got to build pressure because of our poor handling

Stoked we managed to nab the 2 points .
But a local Derby and still we didn't seem that fired up , was like watching the Titans and Tigers games .
Run hard , tackle hard , keep possession and play it down St Georges end .
We win by 20 easily .

I thought bird was playing fullback in attack

Maloney got thrown off a saints player with a minute to go

Yeah I thought so too. Graham said he was playing 5/8 in the post match interview but could have been wrong.

Did any of the starting 1-7 leave?
