Matt Head has been targetted in defense and it is working.

Someone should stick a spoiler warning in the thread title if we're going to have scores in here.

Doesn't bother me, but you never know, someone might want to watch a replay later on and for some reason might not realise we've been discussing the actual match in here. [icon_shru

Great try to Meritt! Maybe Wesser wasn't that bad a buy, he threw the final pass perfectly.

6 nil after luke converts.

Good point Ning but it's too late now. Maybe the Admins could add it?

Charge down by Beau Scott is fumbled in goal by Wesser and Scott grounds it. 6-6 and ascendency is swinging towards the dragons after souths had all the early running

Thanks Rock. Still a little rusty from the off season so I forgot the ettiquette regarding scores.
Maybe a general reminder before the season kicks off?

6 all now thanks to a chargedown resulting in a Scott try. Wesser failed to clean it up so he's back to neutral in the ledger.

I find it interesting that Scott is constantly going for chargedowns given that Bennett thinks it's a low percentage play and discourages it.

For those watching, how's the two ref system going? There's been a few penalties on the LU coverage.

Hasn't been an issue IMO. Most penalties were fair, some were a little harsh. There was an early one against Smith for stripping that I thought was a mistake but I wasn't watching the replay too closely.

I haven't really noticed it too much so far. One ref trails in behind the attacking team's ruck and the other ref is the dominant ref and he plays his normal role. They seem to be getting the calls right, but it's too early to call it a success yet.

Priddis just doesn't look right in Dragons colours.

Did anyone see Justin Bennett the other day.

He was wearing I think a Broncos cap & Souths Jersey, I can't remember what shorts they were, but it wasn't the Dragons.

 

[Fozz]

What a waste of sandow's good work. Wesser, you boob!

 

[Fozz]

Worst has a double.

Final score Souths 18 def Dragons 6

Quite unimpressed by the Dragons tonight. No direction at all, no penetration. Barely seemed to be trying.

Souths weren't much better but at least they tried.
