[CrittaMagic69]

Wow we've only scored what a handful of tries this year so percentage wise as in tries per team v try assists he'd be at the top.

We have scored 33 tries and have 24 try assists awarded. Brenko has 9 of them.

Wow I'm getting turned on lol

 

[TalDog]

Chase Stanley to make his annual first grade appearance before getting injured.

Wonder what happened with RFM. He was impressive first half dozen rounds

He decided to try an offload ..

 

[TalDog]

Chase Stanley will be lucky to survive one game made of glass early retirement coming!!!!!!!!!

That's fucked

Simple maths ... we will lose..

http://www.nrl.com/stats/telstrapremiership/clubshead-to-head/tabid/12699/default.aspx

Dragons:
Score = 21.9 (22) points a game.
Conceed = 14.6 (14) points per game

Bulldogs:
Score = 13.6 (14) points a game.
Conceed = 18.8 (18) per game.

Projected score:
Dragons 20
Bulldogs 12

We have scored 33 tries and have 24 try assists awarded. Brenko has 9 of them.

and we've missed 345 tackles, made 138 errors, conceeded 89 penalties, and 41 tries.

26 missed, 16 errors, 6 penalties.

Based on above (on 17 players each game)
Avr 20 missed tackles per player so far this year. Brenko has 26.
Avr 8 errors per player so far this year. Brenko has 16.
Avr 5 penalties conceeded per player so far this year. Brenko has 6.

So he's above average... even in the stats he shouldn't be.

If you break those stats down per game Brenko is actually not as ill disciplined as most of our squad.

Also most of the games best tries scorers have the highest error rates. Gotta break eggs to make an omelette.

The stat that I would like to see improve is tackle breaks, especially from some forwards. Currently we only have 2 players in the top 50. Both Morris bros.

Improving tackle breaks has so many flow on effects and the points will come alot easier the sooner we started running with some mongrel.

Centres are probably more likely to miss tackles because they have to make harder defensive decisions and are more likely to end up in 1 on 1 situations.. with that though i think he has struggled in defence

 

[Dingo]

Brenko isn't getting dropped for his attack. He and Holland are weak as water in defence and everyone knows it.

 

[jamma01]

Kerrod Holland was dropped because he has no speed , no skill , no stength, shit defense and a a very ordinary goal kicker , he makes tim Winitana look like an imortal

 

[Spoonman84]

Brenko Lee is playing reserve grade this arvo hopefully he can sort out his defence. Garvey and RFM also playing despite not being named earlier in the week.

 

[justdogs]

Brenko defensive Lee-ability out. Attack great but been defensively shit all season. Maybe the checking out the cheerleaders butts was the last straw

Holland laters

At least Des made changes

he had no choice, if we flogged again at Belmore, now he has a excuse " but I make some changes"

 

[justdogs]

Call me optimistic but i think we can win this. Just need our 18th player, rain, to turn up and run hard

and the dragqueens to fell asleep and no turn up

 

[ibby]

I really hope lichhha does his ACL that's the only way we might get are different hooker

 

[JackDog]

I can't see the dogs winning this even though they'll be fired up, saints are a better team and have more points in them and a better HB who will shit all over mbye who'll do SFA as usual.

Hoping Widdop has his annual drop in form this week.

 

[GrogDog]

I expect us to be competitive for 30 minutes due to the slack from this week and then get solidly beaten I'm afraid. Really can't see us going well against such a good team. Saints 28-10.

 

[KiwiDog7]

We will win (gut feeling)

How did Brenko go in reserve grade

 

[Oatley Dog]

We will win (gut feeling)

How did Brenko go in reserve grade

apparently he went well. Scored a typical Brenko try from long range.

Listening to the call yes it was typical rocks and diamonds Brenko. Laying on a try and scoring one as you mentioned.

But he was found out in defence a couple times and was forcing passes/offloads that ended up with the opposition, 2 turnovers in our own half.

 

[doggieaaron]

Josh Reynolds has been ruled out
