Cleary is doing a good job if you watch the Tigers' progression.The
then explain what's happened w CANBERRA w Ricky Stuart or Hasler w Bulldogs - they also had effectively better rosters than we had yet they will miss out on the semis altogether.. U make no sense .. There is no marker that says that we are a better team than we currently are .. This is our best season in the past 5 years .. Don't you think this is as good as it gets.. That the players aRe doing their best and busting their balls each week .. You all are clutching at straws thinking that a better coach could do better w this squad .. My point is the better coaches in Stuart and Hasler, Maguire, Henry, Cleary, are failing miserably - so what makes you think they can do a better job than Mcgregor.. Point is you don't know - U think u know but you don't.. Stop this bullshit that the team is being mis coached! You sound stupid
Mann oh Mann , and the boys Club which is embedded deeply into the club , and wont change because everyone from Doust down are all in on it . We need help from abroad , SOS HELP.... Overseas dragon can you look out for someone to take overIF .such a big word .nobody knows how we would go with Hasler or Barrett at the helm.its hypothetical .so unless your name is Nostradamus then you have no idea .personally I think if JASON D was the coach I'm sure of one thing KURT MANN for one would not feel like a yoyo .even the bench rotation would make sense .whether that means THE BIG RED V ,would be higher on the ladder nobody knows .but it's nice to dream about what might be .Why the most promising young coach in the country was not given a crack only the old boys club knows the answer to that.
I'm sure we would need a crowbar to dislodge them .I'd like to see somebody with passion for our club somebody like Frank Facer would be my selection as C E O.Mann oh Mann , and the boys Club which is embedded deeply into the club , and wont change because everyone from Doust down are all in on it .

The only delusional one is you champ.Your way way off the mark.. The team is nothing more than a top 8 team - if you really think they can win the comp then you are truely delusional my friend.. This team is sitting where it belongs in the bottom half of the 8 with a view of building a roster over the next 3 years that will challenge for a title.. Ffs we are playing without a recognised halfback all year - Mcgregor has not failed yet - and if ur going to disagree with
Coyne.

Who are the heirarchy and who reappointed Mcgregor then feel free to drop them a note and tell them they're f**ked and docile and have no idea - you like all of us are just dumb pundits who are passionate about a team - don't think for once instance you have a clue of what your talking about - the professionals of the club have made their decision and we as dumb pundits have to go with their decision because obviously they see something we are not seeing and thAt gives me confidence..
This is a very revealing post. Thanks for doing this analysis.Here are some interesting stats up to rd 21:
The Dragons (team) are:
Points scored: 2nd with 419 points (leader Broncos on 433)
Tries scored: 5th with 72 (leader Manly with 76)
Goals scored: 4th with 65 (leader Broncos with 69)
All runs: 2nd with 3390 (leader Broncos with 3445)
Run metres: 1st with 32313
Try assists: 3rd with 55 (leader Manly with 62)
Tackles: 4th with 6188 (leader Roosters with 6343)
Missed tackles: 16th with 478 (leader Penrith 654) which is a good thing, so actually we are top team here
Line breaks: 1st with 92
Line break assists: equal 1st (with Storm)
Individuals:
Points scored: Widdop 2nd 153 (leader Cleary 168)
Tries scored: Nightingale equal 5th with 12 (leader Johnston on 16)
All runs: JDB 11th with 290 (leader Gallen with 370)
Run metres: McDonald 13th with 2729 (leader Taumalolo 3488)
Try assists: Widdop 4th with 15 (leader DCE with 18)
Tackles: McInnes 1st with 917
Missed tackles: McCrone 13th with 61 (leader Koroisau with 94)
Line breaks: Nightingale 16th with 11 (leader Rapana with 19)
Of the 10 categories we are:
top team in 4 - Run metres. Missed tackles, Line breaks and Line break assists
2nd in 2, 3rd in 1, 4th in 2 and 5th in one other!
So where does it all go wrong for us?
We just lost to Newcastle ffs and were jammy lucky not to lose to them the first time we played them.We beat Sharks away, Manly home and away, smash Premiership favourites Penrith do those results mean nothing ? These are major results .. Please see it both ways not just the way you want to see it..
They would not let me in either.I'm sure we would need a crowbar to dislodge them .I'd like to see somebody with passion for our club somebody like Frank Facer would be my selection as C E O.
Thank you for making a really important point.Sorry Mickey, you make some points to ponder but on the whole I think DP is closer to the mark.
My assessment is that our cattle could do significantly better with a decent coach. I doubt we'd win but if you get close enough anything can happen.
There are simply too many obvious signs of poor coaching to support Mary, who I think really cares and works hard but just doesn't have what it takes.

I hear you loud & clear mate. It's a crying shame our club has blinkers and earmuffs on.
With Hunt as halfback, Dufty at fullback, a new top line prop to replace Packer and possibly a fit Aitken or a new young centre, I believe we have the squad to make the top 4 in 2018. We need Robson on the bench and Mann on the left wing. Nightingale and Macdonald can fight it out for the right wing spot.Cleary is doing a good job if you watch the Tigers' progression.
In your opinion I sound stupid, well, I'll leave it to others to decide who of us sounds stupid.
I don't agree "this is as good as it gets with this squad", there are too many signs of poor coaching that most of us see. Mary lacks imagination and tactical nouse, he is playing blokes who are broken and leaving a proven try scorer on the bench when he not shuffling him around without a chance to build in a position, even when we need to score points.
BTW, everyone of those other coaches has shown ability over several years. Mary has absolutely nothing to hang his hat on except short periods.
