Im still gutted we lost that game, its a game where the forwards did there job but the outside backs didnt! Chase had a good game yesterday but when you've not won a super league since Bradford, basics need to come into play! Williams & Meli good going foward but defensively are bobbins!

Quote: Early Bath "If you watch the video you will see him put the whistle to his lips but obviously sucked - players all stop and agree it was an `iffy` try as was the 3 yards pass from Brown late on which led to another try.'"


Meli scored a try last week, which enabled you to get a draw,with both feet in touch.Bentham apologised for the error,yet the league table looks exactly the same.The standard of refereeing is awful.

Dissapointing performance yet again. Anyone who says they can see an improvement in our defence are talking through their ar*e I'm afraid. Every time Widnes attacked us on our line they went over, it was embarrassing. This was after losing their scrum half after 60 seconds too. I don't know what they're practising during the week with regards to our sliding defence, but it isn't good enough. I would be happy with progress, but there is non.

In attack we looked better, but only when we played a structured game ie 5 tackles and then a pressured kick with a good chase.

I feel sorry for our forwards. Week after week they put the graft in, they take the ball up well and defend solidly. It is outwide where we're struggling.

I'm also sick of seeing is cough up the ball through stupid unforced errors. Greg Eden done for crossing twice, for f*cks sake, you're suppose to be a professional.

I'm writing this season off already and accept we won't make the play offs. If and that's a major IF Harris can fix the defence, it be to little to late. We just can't keep shipping 30 points a game and expect to win.

Here's what I wrote during the week RE the Widnes game;

Quote: John Gilbert Reds "I cant see past a Widnes win I’m afraid. Big expansive pitch, they’ll exploit our weaknesses around the edges in particular Gleeson and Williams (weak side).'"


If I can see it, then so can every other Super League coach we come across.

PS - yes the referee was bad, but to blame him is almost as embarrassing as our defence. Don't forget the referee mistake for Meli's try last week that earnt us a draw. I didn't see Vickers frothing at the mouth on twitter at that one.

Two wrongs don't make a right.
Last week Meli was in touch.
Yesterday we'd have won with a different ref.
He decided to blow,one way or the other,in nearly every set of six but messed up badly on the big calls throughout the match.
Sorry but talking through my a**e or not we are much better,but we are not winning and that's worrying

Referee or not we should have won both games last week and yesterday. Blaming the referee is ridiculous and an attempt to paper of the evident cracks that exist within the current team. Were simply not good enough in defence to be a top 10 team let alone top 8. I don't blame Harris as I didn't blame Noble, I blame individual players who are letting themselves, their team mates and the fans down.

I seem to remember a couple of posters after our second home game when we were nilled by St Helens who stated that the performance by Saints was the best in a long while and they were going to be champions.

Despite being coached by a very experienced individual - formerly in the NRL (big on defence) and rumoured in the Oz press only yesterday that he would return there for 2015 - but not at The Dragons - and having the conveyor belt of talented youth from their Academy - St Helens lost 3 on the bounce only last month;conceding over 30 points - and conceded over 40 today.

I realize it won't make you feel any better but it shows the difficulty of the job Harris has.

The impossible can be done immediately - Miracles take a little longer.

I suspect my poor effort to make you feel a little better has been in vain.Sorry. icon_smile.gif

On the junior sau kick, as he was lining up to take it I asked my kids why he was kicking, they said they had watched him practise kicks in the warm up, and he was kicking everything, even from the line.
Unfortunately he missed, but he and the staff must see something in him as a kicker?

Having just watched the replay it should be the ref who hangs his head in shame.How did he miss the offside when Mullany kicked through? It wasn't even close.Then when Tasi was cleaned out and Hanbury raced away. You can clearly hear him blow the whistle to stop play so all our players stopped.When Chase asked him about it, he says"I never did anything mate "
