Four up for Mead as Dracs sign off in style


Forget that for periods of this game there was a level of malaise similar to the opening parts of the season.

Put to one side that we have had relegation form since the Cup Final back in August.
Just revel in the fact that the most successful season in the clubs history has ended in style.

David Mead has played himself into the best form of his opening season at the Dracs over recent weeks and bagged four tries in the sort of comeback we usually have to watch from other teams against us.



To be fair both sides could have been forgiven for being on the beach. Their goals of getting in the top 8 and being exempt from the fear of relegation having been fulfilled. The Dragons and the Giants will be setting themselves loftier targets for next year.

We will break the season down in due course but this one ended with the bizarre sight of Michael McIlorum on the pitch with his pet dogs.

Only in rugby league…
