Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 3417649, member: 8814"] Couldn't agree more with this. People are massively over reacting to the loss. We weren't expected to win the last 2 games anyway and throw in the injuries we've had taking players out and coming back way less than 100% and I'm pretty happy with how we performed. I think the main things that are of concern are our lapses in concentration (please don't let these continue) our right edge all of a sudden defending on their heels rather then coming forward like they were, and the soft middle we are getting later in the game. These are all things that are fixable with a few tweeks and players returning. Paix is obviously a big one, Reynolds recovering more, gambles enthusiasm and I think it's time willison came in for paliaasia. Paliaasia isn't playing with the same energy and impact as he was. He looked fit at the start of the year but I remember seeing a man that may or may not have been him ;) at a pub smoking and thinking surely that will effect him, maybe it has. Keen to re-sign him but also wouldn't lose sleep if he didn't. Think he'd turn into another bullemoore if he left (eg looks great coming in but has trouble keeping up with the weekly grind, would get a shock at a club who demand more from their bench). Don't get me wrong, I think he's been great, just looks tired. Willison brought high energy, especially in defence. Really impressed me with the last year Dragons is a the big game for me.... are we going to return to our old habits or have we TRULY changed our mentality. I think we have but not as much as that winning run make it appear we have. We can't turn up thinking "we played well against teams 2 and 3 so we should win this". Some players need to learn that if they don't perform EVERY game they should be massively disappointed, we should want to win EVERY GAME. Last chance (not ever of course, but until they get dropped) for paliaasia niu (I know he wasn't playing, maybe until TMM is back at least), Turpin (even though he shouldn't get picked) for me. They are just lucky origin and injuries has got them this chance. [/QUOTE]
