How good was that try !

Cartwright can do some freakish things

Would be a way cheaper and better option as a ball playing lock in Trent's terrible system lol

Makes sense that if TB is trying to replicate the Penrith attack, he tried to get Yeo over. But JJ can't do it.

Makes me curious whether Barrett was the attacking mastermind that created Penrith's style of attack, and he just doesn't have the right players until Kikau and Mahoney come over next year

If I was running the Dragons I would of sacked hook, his signings are an absolute disgrace.

Barrett won’t be here to coach Kikau and Reed if we keep coping 40 plus to nil score lines

Barrett won't here by round 16 if we keep getting pasted 40+.

Got a respectable forward pack (hell even waddell is showing decent form) that can match it with the best. Annoys me to no end when we camp in the opposition 20 and we've got nothing to show for it; wtf attacking structures can our backs execute?!

Wish we got Yeo as he wouldn't have made a difference here either... Would make Baz realise his failures sooner.
If Barrett is still here and insists on that style, we need Matterson of Eels to fill that role imo. I'd even take the defensive issues of Cartwright for the upside in attack.

TB was the man that brought back the ball playing lock and invented Yeo in that position. But he doesnt have that at the dogs, he needs to adjust to his playing group

Totally agree. Forwards r making metres. The issue are the backline plays; regardless of whether you have JJ digging into the line to pass and create time for the halves, we mostly take the wrong option or someone stuffs up - eg the amount of times the ball has gone to ground, behind a player, or it's been dropped is ridiculous.

 

[Brendan7]

You know I missed seeing Moses Mybe at fullback lol

Was even more funny than before

 

[senshidog]

Tommy Turbo broken AGAIN..

Gone for roughly 4 weeks with a MCL injury.

On his day he can dominate, but surely with his constant injury problems (and hes had quite a few now), Manly must be considering his long term future.

Some Cows fans not happy..

Furious footy fans blast Cowboys for snubbing juniors after heavy loss

The North Queensland Cowboys players have been blasted by angry parents after players failed to meet hundreds of junior players who came from all over Queensland to watch them play.

Thats pretty ordinary. Some of those parents would have travelled hours.

Side note; how goods the sensationalism from the daily mail lol

While the Cowboys didn't meet with their waiting fans, Roosters players did. Joey Manu is pictured meeting with the same boy who was forced to sign his own ball

LOL, no one forced him to sign his own ball, same as no one forced the parent to record it and post it online and ridicule his son. Shit parenting from that ****.

A lot of the comments to the article in FB were telling the kids to harden up, and the parents were raising snowflakes etc. I know it's the Daily Mail, but seriously?
