Is Bennett finally going to end his losing streak against the Dragons in Sydney?

6 straight losses. The last win being in 2005.

2 wins from the last 10 games.

It seems no matter what side Bennett takes down there, the Dragons find a way to win.

I hope we don't get into a grinding match, because I question their commitment to their defence.

I want to see an up tempo game. I want to see them throw the ball around and test the Dragons defence which is just as fragile as ours.

With Frizell out we should win well but let's face it this is a cripple fight. Saints are so bad in attack even our bad D should not concede more than 2 tries.
 
Smoke screens for days.

Glenn will start at left centre, Opacic to right wing, Maranta dropped, Su'A / Ofahengaue / Ese'ese onto the bench.

Are we trying to lose? Glenn at centre is a nightmare. He was woeful last week.

The trade-off might be a little worse defensively on the left for getting Maranta out of the team, and it's only for a week until Kahu is healthy. I'm fine with it.
 
How we are $1.22 favourites against anyone is beyond me.

Well we've got a good record against the Dragons, they can't score points to save themselves and they just had probably the best player on their team suspended.

Well that's the best I can come up with
 
Just watched the second State of Origin again to lift my spirits.How good were Macguire , Parker , Sammy and Gillette !
All charging up in attack and defense With all these boys back and fit surly our middle will be a lot stiffer. Maybe WB could replay the second SOO to Parker and co and say "this is what I want".

I am just starting to feel a little bit more positive now.
 
Frizzell out for touching the ref, that 's a nice little bonus for us.

Really if we ever had a chance to lift and turn around the season then this is the game.
 
Him being out for that is yet another ridiculous decision by morons. This season sucks on so many levels.

Even more so because Cam Smith and Thurston have both done it this year yet no action.

Might just balance out the hair trigger Sydney refs who penalize us for microsecond hold downs and being a few mm offside side.

A few mm offside? Cummins is the ref, this is the same clown who sinbinned Matt Gillett for being 20m onside. And then IIRC made a few dodgy calls and awarded a dodgy try to get the Dragons back into the game.
 
Terrible weather down here. Can't see it clearing up much before kick off.

With how we have been playing I'm not actually sure if this is a good thing or not.
 
Everyone relax ! We will win and we will win well !!!!!
There's no need for concern despite our recent form. A new vibe is in town and the seasons turned around.
