Surely if Dousty won Lotto he would be doubling his Crowny stock....

Dragons still chasing 4 players for next year! Don't be fooled by Millward he's out there hustling for players

I'll leave it to others to be fooled by Millward because he certainly won't fool me.
If he is chasing any of the aforementioned 3 from the Dogs and people think they are worth chasing then we are doomed.

We have cap space - Millward was quoted there are 4 spots available - assuming Graham is done theres 3 spots now and I'm betting we will sign 2 backs and more Forward

The Graham to Dragons rumour just mentioned of Fox. If Rona is available, he would be a good signing however, we do have some good young backs coming through. Pick one such as Zac Lomax and give him intensive off-season training in order to have him ready for 2018.

 

[Dragonslayer]

I doubt wether we would sign any of them TBH.

Rona is now a Wallaby and will get picked up by another RU franchise.
Lee is 21 and already looking at his 3rd club
Lussick is just no

If Graeme has signed, and assuming Hutch re-signs it leaves 2 spots. Gela-Mosby would be one from outside I would really try to sign. Other than that, I think the 2 vacant spots will maybe come from the U20's squad similar to Sailor (Z Lomax and maybe one other)

Roma has already said he was contemplating a return to league, but them got picked for the Wallabies, so now wants to stay.

 

[TomRedVRiver]

f**k me I would give anything to sign Curtis Rona. Offer him 4 years.

it has to be true then

So why would he give up international rugby travelling the world to play for us in Wollongong under a coach who will never win a premiership?

Well hopefully he'll soon realise that he'll never win a game of international rugby playing for Australia.

 

[blacksafake]

Rona said on bsb on Friday he'll most likely be staying in rugby.

 

[Old Timer]

Well hopefully he'll soon realise that he'll never win a game of international rugby playing for Australia.

That could well be true but he will be playing all over the world against elite opposition and be extremely well paid for it.
If the good NRL sides can't lure him we are absolutely no chance.

He'll get plenty of free time every September. So he'll be able to travel during that time without the burden of playing such a shitty game.

He cut down to one case of crownies before midday instead of 2.
Everyone has to tighten the belt

Quite agree with you Sammy , there are times when we all need to ' tighten our belts ' .
Just make damn sure that the other case of crownies , doesn't find its way to your neck of the woods .
