    Show me the Money, Bruce.

    Been away for a bit, have we won the comp yet? Anywho, things have been playing on my mind. Remember when Illawarra went broke and some bloke named Doust negotiated the sale of 49% of the club to Bruce Gordon, taking, from estimates, $4 million less than the offer from the Sydney Kings guy...

    Dufty/Lomax/Feild/Garrick/Aitken

    I've stayed out of here this year, mainly due to personal reasons ( getting old sucks, who new?) but also I didn't want to live another Groundhog Day year. But just a few points on the season. Dufty. I've heard it said that he's not up to first grade, too small, can't tackle, horrible defence...

    A year in review

    Yes, we can talk the positives.. 4 points out of a minor premiership. The emergence of Dufty, Lomax, Lawrie as genuine first grade footballers. If at the start of the year you had offered me a major semi spot I would have taken that. But now the negatives. The mistake from LAM I will never...

    “True Fans”

    I’ve noticed the ugly “true fan” insult is the order of the day again around here when someone has the audacity to question the teams performance. So was just wondering who will out themselves as not actually paying thier hard earned money to see the team play every week. I’ve been paying my...

    Next year

    i know it's still to early but...... Lomax, he will play origin before he's 21 Blake Lawrie, seriously what's not to like about that kid, tough as teak, every play is at a million miles an hour. Luciano, next year he will be a weapon. Dufty will just get better and better with more confidence...

    Get ya Tinfoil hat; Conspiracy Time.

    Now what if....... Most trace our fall back to Origin time. Now say Vaughn, Frizell, JDB, Sims, get into Origin camp and are shown how a professional operation is run. They get individual coaching from people who know things and wonder why these same things are not known down in Dragon...

    Napa and Duty of Care

    I have heard so many commentators this morning going on about "accidental head clash" and this being "a contact sport". Now regardless of weather you think this bloke intentionally leads with his head, which I do on occasions, if you knock a bloke senseless you've hit them in the head. This is...

    Boyd endorses JD

    Something Deeply Wrong

    Something is wrong inside the Dragons. They seem to play with no intensity anymore. Hunt and Widdop are playing like the don’t know each other. The start of the year they were combining really well togeather, it’s now all gone to pot. They start poorly in every game. No one back up any run...

    "The Roster I Want"

    I posted this in another thread, and at the risk of starting another useless thread I thought it deserved more discussion. McGreagor "Roster I Want" JDB, Vaughn, Frizel, Sims. 4 current SOO reps. Hunt. Current, some would say unfairly former, SOO halfback. Graham, international Prop. Widdop...

    Mann o Mann

    If anyone, ever, suggests to me that Kurt Mann is a first grade footballers ring hole I shall kidnap them and force them to watch today's game on an endless loop for weeks. Him and Dufty looking at each other longingly in the eyes while they wait for each other to catch a frickin ball. When he...

    Leilua

    Now don't get me wrong, this was a bit of a Dog act........Dogs, Geddit?.......however. If Luciano could get a bit of his brothers mongrel and fire......let alone fitness......imagine what he could become? It makes it a bit better that it was directed at the Morris bothers. Turncoats, #neverforget

    Nene

    Now this bloke can pull offf some freakish put downs. Live last night I was convinced that was no try. So Cudos for that. He does his part in taking the ball back to give the forwards a break. So Cudos for that. However, is it just me that screams at the screen during his kick returns “just run...

    Player Market

    Ive noticed even after the 30 June deadline there's been a lot of movement in the player market. Tim Grant going back to the Panthers. Blake Furguson going to the Eels......though quite why they would buy another player on the back end of his carrer is beyond me. But the Dragons are very...

    Max Ninness

    The black armbands last night in Tribute to Max Ninness were a nice touch. A genuinely nice guy who knew an awful lot about rugby league. On a personal note Maxy used to be my high school woodwork teacher in the early 80s, one of my favourite teachers. At the time we didn't know of his years...

    What am I suppose to do?

    No football, free weekend, I'm at a lose end here. Fine I could watch the Pacific tests, but I'd imagine they will be on some channel I don't get or can't find, so that's out. Is the Eng/ NZ test on anywhere at some hour I can't be bothered to get up for? I could wait till Sunday night till...

    Star Signings.

    OK, now hold on to your hats because I’m about to praise the Dragons Coaching staff, recruitment and board. Look at the “star signings” this year. Foran is about to be “medically retired” by the Dogs to get out of his million a year contract. Woods is about to be departed from the Dogs. Moylan...

    New Rules

    Is there anybody running the NRL. We saw the latest debarcle of changing rules mid comp on the weekend when McInnes was panalised for passing the ball into an offside opponent. Sure this rule was telegraphed and McInnes should have known, but as someone stated before, now the opposition can...

    The WTF Awakens. A Dragons Story.

    Seriously WTF is wrong with that bloke we laughingly refer to as a "Head Coach" He drops Nightingale for Mann, but moves Nightingale to the bench for a 9 minute cameo for appearently no reason at all. Mann, despite this forums hard on for him, when he is selected in the run on side, has a shit...
