Sharks too smart in the wet for hot-and-cold Dragons to make an unhappy homecoming for Flanagan
To paraphrase Bill Woodfull, there were two teams out there at Shark Park on Sunday but only one of them was playing wet-weather footy.…
St George Illawarra’s final three matches will all be crucial in deciding whether they make the finals – win against Penrith, the Gold Coast and Wests Tigers and the Dragons will likely keep playing in September.
Round 24 – Penrith Panthers
This will be a blockbuster, as the Panthers are coming off a solid win against the Warriors, whereas the Dragons were smashed 32-6 by the Broncos last time out.
With Benji Marshall back this week for the Dragons, the team will have extra guidance around the pitch.
It is hard to bet against the Dragons at WIN stadium in such an important match.
Dragons by 8.
Round 25 – Gold Coast Titans
The Dragons must ignore the fact the Titans are sitting 16th with the wooden spoon is in their grasp.
Nevertheless the Titans’ defence is equal worst in the competition, and their attack is the worst. Gold Coast will really have to play at their peak to defeat the Dragons.
Dragons by 12.
Round 26 – Wests Tigers
As the final match of the season, the Tigers will want to win for the fans. However with Manly on equal points, a win may not be enough to squeak into the finals.
Dragons by 6.
Despite the Dragons’ seven-game losing streak throughout the season, they have defeated class teams such as the Broncos, Roosters, Sharks and Bulldogs.
The squad has the ability and confidence to be excellent, as shown with their nine-game winning streak in the early rounds of the season.
