It's NOT a mess

fake fan backing Broncos over dragons. I'm not a violent person but you deserve a smack in the mouth. all you do is talk dribble and death ride the club.

You have NEVER tipped the Dragons to lose a game, ever?!!!

If so, you're the biggest fake fan of the lot. And emotionally stunted.

Crush, please tell me:
1. How many semi matches the Dragons have played since 2012;
2. How many of those matches in 1 above we won;
3. Given 1 and 2 above, how you consider there is no mess?

I'm only talking about the recent retention and recruitment, not the past 7 years performance.

pretty sure everyone has tipped against us. but we don't constantly death ride the boys every week. you're burning up from all these dragons wins. i bet you can't wait for a loss?

Ohhhh, I get it. Nothing to see here, move along.

I won't call you a fake fan because I like you. And I think you care, unlike the March/April junkies.

I still see a glaring weakness in our recruitment for this season. And it is the lack of a backup hooker.

Dare I say it? We probably should have held onto a McCrone type player and left him in reserves.

Yeah fair enough.
How far away is Reece Robson?
What about Nicholls, can he play hooker?
I presume you are talking if McInnes were to get injured? It doesn't look like Mary will select a reserve specialist hooker on the bench....

Yeah. In case we lose McInnes.

@dragonssamy61 would have a better idea of Robson, but my understanding is that he is still at least a season away.

My greatest fear is that the only option we have is to move Hunt to 9, which would be such a shame. I'm really enjoying that we have an actual halfback for the first time in I don't know how long.

Robson in the last two games has played well.
He plays a similar game to mcinnes .
In that he is strong defender and solid in attack.
He would go ok in nrl but not sure if he could go 80 minutes yet.
But I think mann could play there for a short period of 10 to 20 minutes.
I don't think they would play hunt there unless there was no other alternative.
Nichols may works solid defender and a good kicking game and passing.
Let hope we don't have to find out yet.
Robson needs time.

Early days buddy

Absolutely it’s early days and I’m not counting my chickens by any means.

But it’s hardly the “mess” people alluded to. Oh and by the way, other than the recruitment strategy for this year, he also managed to pick up Paul Vaughan, Cameron McInnes and Nene MacDonald for 2017. Oh and he also got rid of Mitch Rein.

Surely Millward”s met his KPI’s. It’s up to Mary and the players now.
