Really dumb Captain’s Challenge from a really ineffectual ‘captain’.

Except for goal kicking, obviously.

Can we plonk on Hynes on a wing next season in order to keep him? He wants to start. Well, I want him in purple.

Dragons player pretty clearly kicked that ball away as NAS played it. Ref blind as a bat, or intentionally ignored it, take your pick.

Could have challenged it if we didn’t throw it away.

The 17 that run on next week will be a bizarre one.

Foxx now outright 4th on try scorers list.

We will struggle to field a 17 next week.

JAC makes a break, held on the ground for 10 seconds... Ref - “Play it Josh”.

Blowout and concede a late try. Classic.

The late try isn’t on the defence but bloody annoying to look at. Dragons tried hard and got away with a lot. Loved that we put the foot down in the second. Goal kicking without Paps is an issue.

Man, Hynes was good. Hughes is just generally magnificent - love how he thinks on the fly. That was a really impressive second-half.

I think most of the issues in the first came down to the fact the rules changed and the guys might have been apprehensive about being too aggressive in defence. It allowed the Dragons more time to shift the ball.

So... Any idea who plays five-eighth next week?

Yes, but.
Not being overly critical but watch how many times he should pass but has not and instead takes the tackle.
Like I said, not being overly critical but maybe left to right is not his thing.

Why did Hughes go off?
