    All this talk about bringing players in is a joke when you consider how many of our own juniors (or younger players we recruit) we let go or stymie by not showing any faith in them and giving them 5 minutes off the bench. Mary did it with Robson, Host, Field, Sailor. Hook did it with Bud, Clune...

    Wests & Canterbury do... not that it has helped them much. I don't buy that argument. We are too slow to act or are poor negotiators. We sat on our hands when Hyne was off contract, for instance.

    Agreed. But replacing the 22nd best centre in the NRL with the 99th best just seems like a dumbass Hook kinda thing to do.

    Not wanting to sound like I'm writing the man off but so far Super Coach Flanagan has promised to: 1 Return us to our powerhouse, glory days. Obviously still a work in progress. 2 Big signings. Still a work in progress. 3 Training at Jubilee Oval. Are they? Cos when they played the Cows last...

    We didn't grow Boyd, Sowy, Fein, Weyman, Saffy, Costigan or Smith though, did we? And would we have won without them? No.

    We had better players then, too. Not so many dumb-as-dog-$#!+ drongoes, white-ants and whingeing chancers whose paypackets exceed their ability. Cooper, Gasnier, Hornby, Creighton, Young, Morris, Nightingale, Howard, Scott anyone?! All it needed was some mongrel forwards and an enigmatic coach...

    Agreed. If the NRL was fair dinkum about a level playing field and can even competition they would introduce a player draft. It seems to work in AFL. There are still strong (better managed) clubs but there doesn't appear to be a dynastic top tier and bottom tier like the NRL or the Premier League.

    Manly in the gong.

    I couldn't agree more. Rava is shot. A big, strong guy with legs like tree trunks but he just does not back himself. Maybe we could exchange him for Schiller, who has the goods but isn't getting a go at the Raiders.

    If you did that at our joint there'd only be 3 guys left.

    They couldn't win a premiership against an Under 12s.

    R3 v Cowboys

    That try to Townsend was the softest fkn thing I've ever seen. I reckon I will achieve a lot more around the house and lower my risk of a stroke by not watching these incompetent w@nkers again this year.

    Gutless, tired, useless, dumb fkn rabble. I hate this fkn squad so much.

    R3 v Cowboys

    Current Dragons matched with like past Dragons: Sloan = Blacklock (potentially) Lomax = Coyne (potentially) Suli = Nathan Green Bird = Terp Rava = Bert Gordon Flanagan = Trudgett (potentially) Hunt = Kusto Lawrie = Hoogerwerf Marschke = Garry Lonhgurst JdB = Stoney Eisenhuth = Latimore, frankly...
