Is it on Kayo? Or that other rip off site?

Don't know tbh

 

[Bulldog Brower]

1-5 is great, should be exciting to watch

I've noticed that Mazzone has been named both in NSW Cup & Flegg and Sua hasn't been named in either. Must be a typo but is Sua injured?

just don’t complain when the usual 1-2 tries are from his poor reads he’s done it in the trials already. Cant wait till our good outside back comes back so we can leave him in reserve grade. Every club will target his wing and it will work as it has consistently don’t blame them. Yet I have more of an issue of not picking any props on the bench!

Sorry mate i understand you're frustrated but Gus , Cc and myself disagree lol

Ewww.

iT's a MaD WoRLd

 

[albatross]

Surely Hayward's selection is for half/hooker back-up - maybe Ciro's gonna use Mahoney a bit different? I can't believe we'd still be using him as a rotating middle.

yep cup is on kayo 3.05 pm kick off

The only thing going for us is that the Dragons also have a complete ass of a bench.

 

[Dyldog]

Horrendous forward pack

Horrendous? Are you talking about our forward pack?

 

[chuckalora]

The hysteria on here is so funny haha. We will absolutely dust the dragons!

Sounds like your not afraid of RFM's first half runs, Flanno's uncanny playmaking or Ilias tackling the crap out of Kiks.....

 

[Chrisaaar]

I still cannot believe Curran misses this game from that tackle lol

 

[Yougra]

I think once Jack Todd gets 6-8 games in cup injury free, he will force his way onto the bench and will be a permanent fixture.

I'd be worried if we were up against a better forward pack.. but dragons pack is very average.. our pack is really no different to the pack we had towards back end of last year.. just with sitili instead of Curran.

If we win you'll probably see Curran join the bench and Hayes miss out for round 2.

 

[Nate DAWG]

He's garbage through the middle.

He can play the link role well in attack bro. Garbage in the defence though

 

[Ladiesman217]

Bench is putrid except for Tupouniua, Ciraldos boner for tiny forwards continues, hopefully Suluka-Fifita replaces Hayes on the bench since hes not named in cup.

 

[Pavdogg82]

But why would Hayes miss out? He is bigger and adds more punch with his hitups than Salmon...

Stop replacing Hayes. 10x better than Salmon....

Last year's game vs broncos was probably our best game of the year (and up against a big pack, albeit out of form).

Our backline was the same as this game.. but with skelton on wing (now montoya).

Our starting props were Curran and Hughes. Our bench was hayward, hopoi, Hayes and Morrin.

I think our team this week is stronger than that game.

It is a better bench than ours and especially if there’s weather around. I haven’t checked the forecast so it’s only a comment there. I don’t have a lot of confidence in this game, it’s a typical game the Dragons win before they fall off a cliff

 

[Pavdogg82]

If you're going to pick a tiny bench, at least Morrin bends the line and runs with energy. Bench is poo poo
