Huge game in the context of the season. Melbourne have the chance to go 4 points clear if the Warriors can get up over Easts. That'd be a big lead to have after only 9 weeks. No Widdop makes it tough for the Dragons. Still not real keen on Munster in the halves but with Cronk and Smith steering the ship, they can get away with having a ball-runner there.
This match was over after 5 minutes. Dragons haven't recovered from the Anzac day match and the loss of Widdop.
It's a real shame Slater spent two years out of action because he's the only player who could challenge Irvine's record. He'll definitely topple Menzies though. 7 to go.
Dragons right edge defense finally getting the exposure it deserves. Some of those attempts were laughable
melbourne -6.5 easy money. like the dragons were ever a chance even with widdop let alone without him.
