Can't wait for this game... Hopefully the score is a bit better than last time we met Andrew Johns :p

Kurt Gidley at Fullback? Doesn't matter cause dragons are still gonna win

[Luke]

Geeze Michael Hagan is dumb we have a great young fullback in Premier League but he goes and names Gidley at Fullback. The rest of the team is good i think we can still win.
