    Why is the ground so muddy? It looks like a nz ground in the middle of winter.

    opacic has gotta be the frontrunner to replace Reed, Eden's done some good things in this trial but has also had a couple awful brainfades & Whitchurch still has feet for hands.

    kahu and roberts will be the bronx centres.

    oates will take one wing.. i still think anderson is inline for the other. opacic did himself no harm today though.

    Get off it, it was an unfortunate incident and poor tackling technique. Judiciary has agreed.

    I think because most tackles are high to wrap up the ball players are not used to tackling low. All players should look at footage of NAS. He tackles around the legs just about every time & he cuts players in two. It was a poor attempt by Trbojevic & he got his head in the wrong position.

    I haven't seen many games. atm Mann is in my team & I read on a Dragons forum that he played quite well. I just think Mann will do ok at f/b & that he's the same type of player as Munster. Am I off the mark & overating him?


    He wasn't running the ball particularly hard or strong but he showed signs of a good passing game and he set up a try brilliantly with a pinpoint grubber out of dummy half near the line for Aitken to just get to the ball and put it down. Looks like he has the skills to be a good FB for the Dragons but I don't know if it'll transfer to good scores.

    Cheers mate. Might have to re-think Mann.

    Couldn't agree with you more on the tackling technique. Poor.Tackling technique aside, he lifts his knees coming into the tackle. That's the point that should be seen. The fact that Turbo's technique was poor probably saved him some time on the sideline.

    Again all personal opinion. Really the only opinion that matters is the judiciary panels in the end.
