Good thing you didn't go for Ennis huh skrillex
Get Goodwin to kick, he looked good in the World Cup.

Nice win Dragons looked good until Fein got injured then the attack became stagnant. But unlike us they are a well drilled team.

Yep, I was happy with our effort. We didnt spread it anywhere near enough though, I hardly saw Morris and Nightingale touch the ball.

 

[aussie1st]

The opening 20 you guys looked likely to score everytime you passed to Prior in the centres. But once Fien went off that all went away and we saw the old Dragons of early last year.

 

[mattfb]

Yep, Prior was involved heavily, which brings us back to the spreading problem. If we kept exploiting that area, but cut out Prior/Prior passed, Morris could of scored 1 or 2, instead Prior kept getting tackled just short. Prior was good, but in that sense we missed Cooper.

 

[aussie1st]

Yea they did have problems getting it to the wingers, neither centre are really proper centres. Of course after Fien went off the centres were lucky to see the ball.

 

[mattfb]

Yeah, Fien really was the center point for everything we were doing.

I've got 660 points in my Fantasy league so far. Boyd only picked me up 27 and B Moz just 37. Quinn only 24, Wallace only 31 and Ennis just 11 =/

But I had a few good scoring players. Still have my Vice Captain Watmough to score, and Burgess.

 

[aussie1st]

Lol you are in a bit a of trouble, the average was about 1000, top guys were getting 1200 I think. I've got 678 with Carney, Lawrence, Ryles, Packer, Farah, Fulton, Burgess, and Symonds left.

Gutted I have Norman in sub Might have to get that Gillett after his round 1 display.

Dead set aye'.

 

[aussie1st]

Feel like crying seeing Todd kill it for the Roosters. That could have been us and Campese and Carney what a combo Right now its another year new gun forwards but same old story for Souths.

 

[mattfb]

Yeah, I'm screwed in the fantasy. 5/7 so far in the tipping though (:

 

[aussie1st]

Same here, I got screwed over by Ennis and then should have gone with the Roosters after their trial form but I couldn't resist the hype on South.

Edit: Lets see how I'm going in our tipping comp, was talking about the NRL one. 4/7 in that one, tipped the Eels!

 

[mattfb]

Yeah, the rabbits hype got me too. It's always hard not to tip on last seasons form in the early rounds. Should of went Roosters.

 

[mattfb]

Get in!!!!!!!!!

 

[iridescentt]

Flip this.

 

[aussie1st]

And flip South, cost me another tip. Well done Dragons, Brett has been a real find ever since last year. Quite amazing to think he was struggling to make the side at this very stage last season.
