The punters have written them off and contract negotiations are seemingly wearing them down but Josh Kerr is adamant Anzac Day is the perfect stage to turn the Dragons' fortunes around.
The Red V arrive at Allianz Stadium on Tuesday with an unflattering 2-4 record but that's exactly where they stood last year when they stunned the Roosters 14-12 on the back of a Ben Hunt masterclass.“The thing we need right now is this Anzac Day match, it’s not a skill-set thing this game it’s more about our desire to win and our effort and how much we’re going to turn up for each other as teammates.
Since the two sides launched the Anzac Day tradition in 2002, the Dragons hold a 12-8 advantage and a win in this year's clash would be a huge boost for coach Anthony Griffin as he faces continued speculation over his future at the club. When the whistle blows, you’re not playing for just our team, you’re playing for those people that didn’t get the chance to be nervous, they were jumping out of trenches and fighting for their country and their teammates.“In the grand scheme of the season, it’s still early days. We talked about wanting to use the first few rounds as a time to build our identity as a team and this is a game that will prove how tough we are and how hard we’re willing to play.
