And some poor reads. Can’t say I’m a fan particularly the way he takes the line on.
Having a second look at the game now and will be looking for those crucial ones. Thanks for the tip.

Think its Eiso’s time to sit in reserve grade and bring back Twal, let’s see how we go with that!

I don't get the criticism of Farah's service out of dummy half. Honestly it's no slower than the majority of hookers in the NRL. Of course compared to guys like Cook or McInnes it's slower, but geez they're the cream of the crop, it's hardly pedestrian. He still has plenty of spark for his age and I thought his entire game was great today, not just the second half. Harsh critics.

Agree with this.
No one has beaten the Dragons on their home soil this year and they have only had 5 losses for the Season.
Lost to Warriors, Rabbitohs, Panthers and Storm all at their home grounds.
At Jubilee have defeated in past rounds.
Broncos
Rabbitohs
Storm
And did I forget to mention we haven’t Won their since 2005 in a total of 5 games since.

Its not all about Brooks. The spine played well including Brooks, and as a team provided a variety of options that allowed us to win the game and beat a much more fancied top 4 side.
Brooks doesnt have to star, he just needs to do his job well, which he did and his performances this year seem to be most successful when Benji plays beside him.
Its not a long term option but its the best we have atm.

Yes, it was a great win, ugly at times but still a terrific victory.
I thought during the week we were a chance with them having so many origin players backing up…that said we had our excuses too, being on a losing streak for a month and a half.
Being at kogarah was the only reason I didnt back us, hasnt been a kind venue for us recently but that fact adds to the enormity of the win.
This will do wonders for the teams confidence and the gelling of the spine
On Farah, people surely know he isnt adored by all and shouldnt be surprised if punters analyse his game a little closer than most, the media do this particularly with the key positions.
He was good yesterday and has made a big difference to our offence.....there are a few who are OTT though in picking his game apart...but there are lots of little cliques here
Great win and one to keep on the IQ drive

I can't agree with Eisenhuth being dropped. I thought his work rate in defence was outstanding. As for Alioia, Lawrence's injury will see him remain.
A great Tigers win against adversity - a lot going against us but they hung in and ended with a good result.
Not the greatest fan of Robbie but he played well (a few bad decisions but wasn't on his Pat Malone there). Brooks played very well - short kicking game was excellent and generally did all that was asked of him. Packer and Matulino both played well against arguably the best pack in the NRL. Much easier too come in from the bench and play against the opposition bench forwards. Taylor also played well, always good in defence but his attack was getting back to his old best i thought. The people throughout the "Live Thread" who put crap on the above players throughout the game should go to spec-savers, maybe they were not watching the game but grinding their axe as usual to fit their agenda.
Thought just about all played well, I still have concerns about Eisenhuth in attack - never hits the line hard, always seems to saunter up looking for a possible off load, but very seldom does. Still has a lot to learn. We are going to miss Rowdy 'big time' if he is out for awhile - missed him 'big time' once he went off yesterday.
Just to end on a further positive note; that on Saturday Liddle created a club record in any grade of 73 tackles from 77 attempts. As you can see he is very fragile as some believe.

Bloody angry
Fox haven't had a full match replay since the live game and none are coming before the next Rd
They had a 60 minute version

What the hell is a 60 minute game anyway? Blows my mind why Foxtel bother.
They have a dedicated Footy channel that needs content, and they then have to pay someone to cut down the games by 25% to fit into some stupid 1-hour timeslot.
Reminds me of the old Channel 10 games that were highly edited to fit in ahead of the news; became very confusing when you have a scrum feed, there was an ad, then suddenly the opposition is rucking out.
