Saints should be giving it to Sims to run at him for the rest of the game.

61st min TRY RABBITOHS to Campbell Graham. Awful missed forward pass from Cook, but Walker and Burns set it up for Graham, who goes over in the corner. How do referees miss such blatant forward passes? Adam Reynolds missed the goal.

They just use Sims as a decoy runner too much. He is one of the most damaging edges in the game and they're not using him properly. Get him in a 1-on-1 situation near the line and he'll score nearly every time.

Yeah agreed, strange football.

Also agree with Channel 9, this rotation the Dragons have going with 3 halves in the run on team and a fullback on the bench is unsustainable.

Brennan. Quite a few so called experts were tipping the Titans to make the 8 and I still can't understand why.

Sharks first two tries are exactly the plays our team needs. Halves straightening the attack with two decoy runners, easy tries to the winger. Instead we just pass from side to side waiting for a crack to appear in the line.

Peachey has more upside and plays 80min. He will get better once Ash Taylor and co return.
$750k for someone who doesnt even play 80min.....def Boyd
