    The Rumours Thread

    Kit 66, I would not make a direct criticism of any posters with the exception of one occasion when Getsmarty was being personally and unfairly attacked despite what he has done for us all over such a long period of time. Yesterday I was genuinely pleased to see that some remembered a pretty good...

    The Rumours Thread

    At times on this Forum, the negative perceptions of some players can almost get personal. Sometimes I think it's forgotten that we are talking about real people. At least in relation to comments on Matt Feagai some have recognised that 2022 was a good season for him. I just wanted to add that I...

    Flanno's New Signings

    bg man, if Forumites got a vote at the selection table, the Dragons wouldn't even get half a team out on the paddock. Sua, Rava, maybe Luc, probably Liddle. Lomax, nah! Bird, nah! The "plodder" Lawrie, nah! Sloan, are you kiddin? Can't catch, can't pass, can't tackle! Possum would pick some of...

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    Got to see 40 minutes of Flegg vs KOE sides before being called away, much to my disappointment. So just a few snippets. Flegg were up 14-8 with 30 mins to go. Both teams looked fitter and sharper than the games I saw last year or was this just wishful thinking? They were getting a break every...

    David Morrow

    I knew David at the Sydney Uni Cricket Club in the late 70s before his career with the ABC began. I recall he did a tape of a SUCC vs Randwick 2nd Grade match as part of his application to the ABC. Used to listen to him and Warren Ryan on Sunday arvos for decades. Not having seen him for years...

    Rev, Could I respectfully propose Tuipu, Pu, Pulo, Pulotu, Lotu. Maybe if he turns out a successful gamble then he could be Loto?

    Flanno's New Signings

    I liked the look of him too, Snow D. Pretty quick off the mark but I confess I note good attack more than defensive qualities - no doubt someone will make a comment re his defence. He is featured amongst an odd selection of Top 30, "supplementary" players and others in the NSW Cup squad which...

    OT: Merry Christmas 2023

    Getsmarty, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you most sincerely for your enormous contribution to keeping us informed in this place year after year. You of all people deserve a great Christmas and a better Dragons team in 2024!

    OT: Merry Christmas 2023

    Great sentiments expressed here, OT, especially your desire for a better world. Unfortunately while we debate the state of our beloved Dragons, so much violence and poverty occurs throughout the world. Your recent few posts emphasise how much I miss your views around this place -you have always...

    The Rumours Thread

    Gardenia, I have been reading your input over many years now - I joined in 2016- and am normally happy to do so. But I must disagree with you here. Get Smarty plays an extremely valuable and time consuming role on this Forum and he never sets out to attack anyone. At various times he has...

    Flanno's New Signings

    Illusion, I think we would first have to see if Piggy can still manage to jump over the fence and sit in with the fans for a moment or two. That certainly beat all those limp, usually self-centred and meaningless to most people try celebrations we see now. It was pure skill and humour from the...

    The Rumours Thread

    Whatever the true stat for ball retrieval from short kickoffs and dropouts it would be shocking and cost us dearly last season. Good onya Rev for bringing it up. Hope Flanno has got it high on his massive Must Improve list. Over many more seasons but also very poor are our stats for Golden Point.

    I did notice the carpark inside the southern ground at WIN Stadium yesterday was pretty full early in the afternoon. Nice to know that playing for the Dragons remains a positive for some youngsters.

    The Rumours Thread

    Good to see a positive comment on here, Jak. We must remember that the off-season is our best chance to be positive. In fact for many years now it has been the only time we could be positive. Though I did feel good back in 2020 when Covid stopped the comp. Just not for long enough! We won't...

    2024 Squad List

    Sorry, Choker, didn't mean to come across as a smartA! We posters have gotta all stick together and lead the way for the club and the players. Good onya, for trying to assist the club while on night shift. Because the club certainly needs all the help it can get. And as we have seen, season...

    2024 Squad List

    Choker, Flano has only brought one player to the club so far, Hame Sele, but you can't find a place for him?

    Bud News

    An interesting discussion. My own view is: 1. I am disappointed that Bud has gone, just like many posters. 2. His injuries and Griffin's selection policy prevented Bud from having a red hot crack at the NRL over the past two seasons. 3. Bud's games in KOE Cup in the first half of this year...

    Bud News

    I admire your values, OT. In fact I share them. Obviously we grew up in an era when parents regarded inculcating excellent values in their kids as one of their most important parental roles. However where I differ from you is that because I hold the whole operation of the NRL in contempt I...

    Dan Russell

    From what I have seen in KOE Cup he has played consistently well and consistently long minutes without demanding a spot in the NRL team. But after two shocking defeats, I would reckon an injection of enthusiasm is what is required and a mature age player in his first game may be able to provide it.

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    This season you have to search very hard to make a positive comment about the Dragons. But I think it is quite objective to say something good about the KOE Cup team over the past couple of months. After a shocking start to the season, they have now begun to string some wins together and today...
