Dugan out with Broken Jaw

This is all getting a little Too cocky for my liking…Wests Tigers often struggle after a BYE as well as making bog ave Teams look like Premiership material...

We SHOULD beat them well....history tells me DANGER Will Robinson....
 
Hoping for a solid Tigers win built on gritty forwards and some measured flair from the halves. Saints seen to have neither atm. I was bored enough to scroll through the Dragon's forum after last night's loss. Hell…..those fans (or forum posters pretending to be fans) don't hold back!! I wouldn't want to be McGregor or Widdup or Rein of Lafai or.....anyone other than Frizzell!! Great to see!!!!!
 
Titans were very good last night…..as for Dragons.....never count your chickens before they hatch...we could produce one of our poor displays as we have done before...
 
They're not quite as bad as Newcastle, but they are the definition of a bottom 4 side. Don't have much going for them at all. They need a halfback for starters, no wonder they only average 12 points, they have 2 5/8's in the halves. I'm not cocky, but the way we've played the last couple of months, I think we're entitled to feel confident and have this marked down as a game we should win. We'll have too many points for them.
 
Vossy and dare I say it Blocker (ducking for cover ) are great together. Heard them twice now on Fox - it just works.

They're a very good side. Deserve a spot in the 8 tbh.
 
Another thing on the Dragons. Their points diff before the game last night was -123\. A joke you could be sitting in the 8 with that kind of F/A.

Helps when you get to play Melbourne and Cowboys during SOO

My biggest concern is the Dragons will be fired up and we are coming off the bye

But if we can't beat the Dragons without Dugan we don't deserve to even be considered a Top 8 contender
 
A good opportunity to gain some confidence & get our points diff heading in the right direction. Just hope we aim up in D, play straight & get the offloads going.

Give Inglis about 16 weeks

Should give him 4 weeks to get ready for 2017 SOO series

I hope he is still playing for Qld in 2020, he is becoming a liability. Hasn't done anything in years, the goanna has run his race.
As for his punishment, didn't Kade Snowden get 8 weeks for breaking Ray Thompson's jaw about 2 or 3 years ago? The incidents were nearly identical so I don't understand the vast difference in suspension length.
 
Heard lockyer and Johns pleading his case last night,both were banging on that GI was only bracing himself,with no arms involved it looked like a deliberate shoulder bump to me rather than some one bracing for a collision,with the shoulder coming into contact with the head,thus the broken jaw.
Now locky is a maroon so he will be biased towards another Qlder,Johns however is forever sucking up to GI in an attempt to make amends for his racist slur about him a number of years ago,this again points to how ordinary ch9 commentary is,if a lesser player did that tackle to GI,Thurston,Cronk,Smith,Slater or any of their other pets which resulted in a broken jaw there would be an out cry of the kicker needs to be protected.

Sorry about the above post before hand,accidently bumped the submit button.. :unamused:
 
Yep dog act from Inglis. Always has and always will be a dirty thug of a player. Doesn't even come from QLD either. Scum.
On the other hand it's good to be playing a Dragons side minus Dugan, tho I'd never wish injury on anyone.
Well, except Inglis.

A bit of topic, but yep! Totally agree. Blocker is so opinionated, I love it!
