Round 14: Dolphins vs St. George Illawarra Dragons

[Red]

Bye for round 13 and then the very average Dragons with Saifiti and JMK surely back. If not, the club needs to inform the public what is really going on with them. Did JMK have his infected leg cut off? God knows what is going on with Saifiti's shoulder. There are no easy games in the NRL so no room for complacency but it's still a good opportunity to march up the ladder. I haven't had a look at the draw recently but I think our second by is only a few weeks away. In a perfect world, Dolphins will be firmly entrenched in the top 8 after the Origin period is over.

You're right about no easy games. Cronulla who are the least affected side by Origin and signed a marquee prop to add the final polish for Nichoooooooo were thrashed off the park by a Roosters side without 5 Origin players and their halfback still injured.

Last night showed that and you always need need to turn up with the right mindset - this has been the Dolphins issue they can blow teams apart and self destruct. This is a really good chance for the Dolphins to develop a very confident run of form.

I didn't watch the Roosters-Cronulla game. I just presumed the Sharks would thrash them.

St George and then Cowboys probably without Deardon for Origin. Great opportunity to march into the top 8.

I reckon many did but a few mins into this game you can tell Cronulla mentally prepared very poorly.

I didn't pick up two things this week and normally I do pick these things up.

Politis drip feeds his mates in the media about Origin selections hurting clubs in the past he only complained when Roosters got 7 instead of 9 players in Origin teams. I now see it was a reverse tactic to get Cronulla mentally off their game and it so worked.

Also with Dolphins v Bulldogs we see two tweets from Gould to his Bulldogs market and Gus blocks anyone who questions his tweets or asks a too hard question I asked one about lack of fitness in 2022 and got blocked even though he sacked the trainer less than 2 weeks later. Gus posts one about 10 players across the Top 36 unavailable due to origin, suspension or injury and posts one about the schedule & short turn around even though the Bulldogs don't have a single 5 day turn around last year or this year. Normally Gus only does this tweets as a deflective so fans have the excuses loaded up in case they lose and if they win he can bask in the courage and system mentality.

I might be a Bulldogs fan first but found myself hammering a lot of Bulldogs fans on the Facebook groups and Twitter over which club had more significant outs a lot of Bulldogs fans I will save the comments of the game thread.

Dragons won't be easy players like Gutherson compete for every play what they lack in skill and power they make up for Gutho making them competitive.

Thanks for telling us all about Phillip Ronald Gould's social media habits.

How about the Dolphins social media habits? No officials seem to have anything to say at all.
