26-24 Dragon

26 all 73 minutes played.

[Farmduck]

Joel Caine compares Knights' losing streak - 18 games - with University's 42-game streak from 1934-36.

 

Uni won the first game of 1934 and the last game of 1936 with nothing in between. They also went winless in 1937 which was a strange year, with only 9 rounds played.

[Graham]

It is Dragons looking vulnerable struggling in atrack and giving ball away.

[Graham]

Big penalty decision to Dragons after tgey looked to have fumbled a play of the ball.

Widdop kicking.

Success with 5 srconds of play left.

[Graham]

28-26 full time.

Dragons win

JUST!

Goodbye Ben Creagh.

Goodbye Jeremy Smith

Benji Marshall?

[Farmduck]

Well the Captains' Challenge was a flop. None of the tries went to the bunker and most were clear cut so there wasn't anything to challenge.

COWS   V   TITANS

 

 

JT struggling this week with tonsilitis. Titans need the win to absolutely nail down 8th spot, making the result from tomorrow's Raiders/Tigers game irrelevant (in terms of 8th spot, I mean. That game could still be relevant in determining 2nd spot for the Raiders.)

Here are some cows:
