    Zac Lomax

    Very funny in the post match interview with Flanno saying "Jack can fail a test" suggesting he would find a way to fail any test whether HIA related or not. I can see how Jacks responses would be interpreted as being influenced by HIA after effects. Lets hope they don't re-test to give him the...

    Zac Lomax

    If I was the Dragons management I would be writing to the NRL something along the lines of: "How can it be fair that to keep a player we have to pay him $850+ but somehow parra are allowed to entice him to break contract for $200k less?"...a salary cap exemption cannot be allowed! If they want...

    Flanno's New Signings

    McInnes signed with the sharks soon after the season ended with a year left to run on his existing contract without much thought of negotiating with Saints. Its a fine way to repay the club that gave you opportunities that Souths weren't and to give him priority over our promising juniors and...

    The Rumours Thread

    I believe (heard on the radio) Triston was kept a year longer than necessary so the club could help him stay in the gong till he completed his degree at the uni. No appreciation for that from Wendel. Its as simple as "we can't keep 'em all and we made a choice.". It is true that we cut him...

    Manly in the gong.

    My take on the game.... * Team is much stronger with JDB coming off the bench...at least till we get another good prop. * Whatever Lawrie did in the off season to change his body shape he has undone. He looks too heavy and cumbersome...a plodder. We still need him but he should be bench prop...

    R3 v Cowboys

    I thought it was the game against the Cowboys (3 years ago??), last round of the season....Cowboys player had the ball rolling down his hand as he was placing it in the corner. Clearly the ball was lost but because the ball was still in contact with his fingers as he forced it,, it was...

    I wish somebody would tell Lomax we are playing with 3 centres which allows us to play 2 centres alongside each other like used to happen a long time ago. This also happens when an extra front rower is selected to beef up the forward pack or an extra 2nd rower to make it more mobile.

    Welcome Back Luciano

    We are used to copping the raw deal... Remember Korbin Sims? We played Broncos in the last game of the season and Korbin, playing for the broncos got suspended for a high tackle on a Dragons player. Of course the next season he sat out a few games while signed for the Dragons.

    The Rumours Thread

    I can't see how the Panthers could possibly have a spare $850K available to offer Luai. If its real should be worth investigating. Might be just doing him a favour with an opening bid to get him over the $1 mil mark.

    The Rumours Thread

    I have heard his name mentioned...would be OK with it. Sipley on the other hand seems to be unable to lock down a spot in the first choice prop rotation. I have seen him play a couple of games where he has run amok. May be a little inconsistent if Manly are using him as depth.

    Bud News

    The Tigers told him he was surplus and could find another club. After he had signed with the Dragons (much later), they changed their mind and actively encouraged him to break the contract using the technicality that he hadn't been officially released. It left the Dragons without a fullback the...

    Remember Moltzen?

    Hunt has asked for a release

    Whatever the facts are, and I doubt a lot of what BH is claiming, why is he continuing to go to the media with all of this? Have some respect for the club that is paying you a lot of money and stop disrupting the team's preparations. Its clear who the mole was last year where every internal...

    Hunt has asked for a release

    Hunt is homesick?? Have you seen how far Gold Coast is from his home town? Its a flight either way....probably 1 hour from GC vs 2 hours from Sydney. Hardly something that is worth the drama of suddenly running out on your team and breaking of contracts. Complete BS and I can't see the Titans...

    New recruits for 2023

    I thought that was his sister.
