**Live game thread** Us vs the Dragons

[Yossarian]

Could be a broken jaw.

 

[Agitator]

Nice quick service from halatau

I reckon his service has been mainly ordinary…

 

[Harvey]

Dodgy high shot looks like it will leave us a man down

 

[Tigerdave]

on report….......does us no good with 1 player down

 

[innsaneink]

I'd probably take the 2.

Id see that as negative, theyd want us to do that…go for 4/6 or repeat set imo

Hope TG is OK

 

[Tigerdave]

Tim being stretchered off

 

[moe1969]

If Tim Grant has to stay of that st George bloke should be gone as well. It will now be 17 on 16, thats wrong!

 

[Swordy]

Grant clocked in the jaw. Possibly his day done. And yet their guy gets to play on.

Thats why the bunker should be able to rule on that. He will do time, no doubt at all. Surely they can tell that!

 

[Guest]

Now how do we respond to losing Grant?

 

[851]

Drags are very ordinary. We are getting on top.

They are indeed, like I said the other day, we could beat them with JT at hooker.

 

[Geo]

Hope Grant is OK…looks bad...

 

[Yossarian]

Long break here. Grant still being treated. Dragons would have been a man down in a previous era…

 

[Tuiaki_Chicken_Wings]

Moving his legs and arms fine which is a good aign… jaw and nose might say otherwise! Get bettwr soon big man!

 

[stevetiger]

Gee Rankin is looking ordinary so far

I don't think he is a first grader. He definitely isn't a first grade winger.

 

[moe1969]

leave 13 on the field but he has to go!

 

[Yossarian]

We're taking 2 points. Assuming it goes over…

 

[Guest]

8-6 after 24 minutes.

 

[Yossarian]

6-8

 

[Agitator]

Why is Rankin kicking?

Anyone….

 

[stevetiger]

Kev is so close to a world-class centre at times.

Attack is brilliant, tackles very well… just reads terribly. Can be fixed though.

I reckon he is a great centre. It's not just him that is the issue defensively. That was Nofo.
