    McGregor Retires

    Interesting choice, but probably for the best. Let’s see if he sticks with it this time. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.news.com.au/sport/ufc/conor-mcgregor-announces-retirement-on-twitter/news-story/60c2f5678db39f915867371d1a8a4aab

    Indecision time for Price

    Wasn't sure if the article needed it's own thread, but why not! I think the article puts a less-than-positive tough on our wins and losses but raises some good points that a few of us have mentioned early in the year. The first three wins (coupled with the fact that we are used to losing after...

    Breakout Season

    I read a somewhat interesting article on Zerotackle that predicts 5 players to have breakout seasons (they reckon Corey Norman, Josh Mansour, Jack Wighton, Jason Taumalolo and Nathan Peats)...while I've gotta disagree with some of these, it begs the question as to which Dragons will have a...

    Cutters - Damien Cook

    Random topic, I got told today that he was told he won't be in the first grade squad if he stays with us next year and it bugged me a bit... Am i the only one who rates this kid? I thought he looked very comfortable in first grade in his limited games, he's lightning quick, works hard, and has...

    Applauding our recruitment

    I may be the only one, but I'd like to put a hold on the doom and gloom, and the cries of 'we havent recruited anyone, next year will be just as bad' and present a case as to why our recruitment has been great and the future looks a bit better! There was an article in the paper not long ago...

    The Cannonball Tackle

    In the Dragons vs Souths game last night, Roy Asotasi (I think) got put on report for a cannonball tackle - this was followed up by the commentators saying things like 'a lot of players hate that tackle' and 'how do we stamp that out of the game'. First question - is this the first instance...

    The 2014 "Pass Mark"

    So we have one of the last pieces of the puzzle in a half. Even without a big name prop, we still have a very formidable team for next year. Everyone has their own different line-ups and opinions on players, so I may as well post mine for arguments sake 1. Dugan 2. Morris 3. Runciman/Farrell...

    Creagh aiming for a premiership within 3 years

    What do we reckon? Can we do it? I mean, we are looking very solid for next year (particularly pending who else we bring on board) but can we compete with the likes of Storm (Smith/Cronk/Slater) or Souffs (Burgess/Inglis/Luke/Reynold/etc) or Roosters (SBW/Pearce/Jennings) and so on, particularly...

    Cummins in Cutters

    Evander Cummins has been named at fullback in this weeks NSW Cup game. I'm assuming Michael Lett is unavailable. Regardless, this is exciting, it means his match fitness could be up and he might get a look in at a few minutes in NRL. Good to see Kem Seru getting a run aswell. Also, is Vea in...

    Dragons Rumoured Signings

    So...so far this season we are chasing: Josh Dugan Todd Carney Joel Thompson Stewart Mills Feliti Mateo Mitch Aubusson Sam Williams Lachlan Coote Kurtley Beale Jordan Rankin Thought I'd open up this thread to throw in opinions on who we are looking at, even who we should be...

    What does Mitchell Pearce have that all other halves in NSW lack?

    http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/why-the-nsw-blues-cannot-afford-another-halves-selection-debacle/story-e6frexv9-1226612831815 There are a whole bunch of options for NSW 5/8 - Carney, Mullen, Maloney, Reynolds, Sutton - and all are being scrutinised, assessed, determining their...

    Soward on NRL 360

    http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/nrl-360-st-george-illawarra-dragons-playmaker-jamie-sowards-misguided-spray/story-fn7r8ycd-1226611160672 I'm the first to admit Jamie has a big chip on his shoulder and an attitude problem. I am also undecided as to whether or not he is worth signing...

    AAAAAANNNNNNDDDD there's another one!!!

    St George-Illawarra has its sights set on poaching another Raiders youngster, with the Dragons emerging as Canberra's biggest rival in its quest to retain Joel Thompson. Thompson has been heavily linked to Parramatta after it missed out on fellow Raiders back-rower Josh Papalii, but Fairfax...

    Which off contract players should we retain?

    Creagh - Our captain! Re-Sign Cooper - Suggestive retirement! money that can be used elsewhere Soward - Has an eye on Japanese rugby already. Don't re-sign Fien - Retirement is calling, don't re-sign Ah Mau - should be held onto for depth if nothing else. Re-sign (unless someone pays overs...

    Let's talk tactics

    Because we in this forum are clearly the top-tier of armchair coaches, I thought it was time to start a discussion on what Saints need to become a force and fix that attack of ours. Some of us have been critical of Price and his structures or his methods etc, so how would WE fix it? If you had...

    Club Captain

    First of all, I want to iterate that I am NOT one for hitting the panic button after 2 rounds! However, while we all backed Creagh for captaincy, there was ALWAYS a consensus of him being the best of a bad situation. It's becoming clear, from the trials and games, that we need someone to lead...

    If we want to stand half a chance...

    There's a handful of other threads that bring up the issue of our halves and who we should throw the cash at. It's blindingly obvious that our halves are our weakest point, and simply aren't making the most of the hard work of our forwards. Sowie, while talented (potentially) simply doesn't look...
