Rd 9 2025 WT V Dragons

One word: toughness

Dragons are a well coached side who play a tough brand of fast footy. We went well to stay with them and ultimately overcome through good leadership from Jarome and Api.

One word: Batman. He is not laying off a lot of try assists but his confidence and the accountability that he demands from the team is really the difference this year. We would have lost the last 2 weeks without him bringing those attributes to the game. It’s his team.

Staines had a good game as did seyfarth 

Agree re Staines but thought Seyfarth was terrible. Some crucial errors, some poor defence - in particular not assisting his half in the second half when Luciano was running amok. 

 first half seyfarth made some crucial tackles

At first read I thought your one word was Bateman. 😆  I totally agree with the ownership and influence that Luai has over this team. True leader. He also started to run a bit more last night.

My one word is actually a movie title from the 60’s ‘The Great escape’ and I think this week Marshall will be throwing a ball up against a wall and catching it. One things for sure we have to be more dominant in tackles down in Melbourne next week. 

How did we manage to win a game after a 12-2 line break stat line against us? Let’s be real, we lose if it wasn’t for the 12pt turnaround at halftime.

Relief - dragons were the better side in the second half, in years gone by we were them...played better, however lapses at critical times lost us the game...I'm glad we are now the team that can win, even when on balance the other side look better. It's critical to being a top 8 team.

My one word - wins.

we have more wins than losses this far into a season. Good on Benji

@dirty-reds Trying to get to many minutes out of Seyfarth has not got the motor he is definitely fatiguing … in saying that he would be effective with shorter minutes.

One word SHOCK this team winning 5 games so far ! 

One word,TURNAROUND as in 12 point turnaround.You would be hard pressed to find a greater epitome than the one Jahream Bula  provides,being the difference between winning and losing.   
  TURNAROUND, as in our general fortunes on the back of 3 spoons.

Twenty-five. 

This is us, in 2025. Lucky to get away with a win after playing our worst half of football this season, but we did. '25 "we're built different". 

One word - four.

Four competition points in 6 days. Both tough games in the past would have been zero.

One word-Luai. 

His leadership is exactly what this footy team and club needed.
