IMO we were just flat the other night. Our forwards have matched it with the Cowboys, Storm and Warriors so far this year... I'm not concerned at all.
Our weakness in 2009 is shared by other teams too, and that's dominance in and around the ruck. Our backline relies on getting QUICK ball and momentum after a tackle. The Dragons pushed it to the limit, but were able to lie on us just long enough to slow our momentum, but not long enough to get penalised for it. Perfect gameplan, well executed, and we were flat footed nine times out of 10.
