Well that second half was certainly a pleasant surprise - Dragons had nothing left in the tank by the 50 min mark

Whoever gave our half time talk deserves a Dally M point - different team second half, like the one we saw at our peak in 2022 that could attack, defend and keep the pressure on. Yes the Dragons are mediocre but when we play like that we can challenge any team

Does my head in a bit how they just flicked a switch and all our players got their **** together or was it a fluke 40 mins against a tired opposition? Even so our discipline and set completions were a massive turn around - shows we can do it if we really want to.

Nicho was a huge factor for sure though, he is the new calming influence and his execution of plays was top class

Lomax got owned lol - never understood how much he got talked up/hyped as some future rep star or some ****. Crap defender and bad hands + brain snaps. Oh well Dragons need to put their hopes somewhere I spose (other than Ben Hunt)

Wow wasn't expecting to climb to 5th/6th - that's a big improvement from what was looking like second last at one point this weekend. Thanks Drags for the F/A boost, Sharks now have most points FOR as well ;)(y) Now to get that AGAINST column back under control

Didn't like that first half one bit, besides the Kennedy try and Hynes being all class.
Much better second half from all involved against a rather weak opposition.
Would have loved to see that sort of performance against Canberra as well.

Williams still looks like a liability to me; his first stint when Nikora went for a HIA was brutal.
