One of those was McGregor.
After Bennett left it was like catching CV-19 a second time and being in ICU for 6 years.
Its depressing reading all the depressing commentary on this site. Dragons fans are not happy campers. Of course the coach is a problem but not the only one. Millward and the board and previous CEO's are also a big part of the 10 year fall from grace. Players must also take some blame. Even Frizzell is not playing with much purpose, is seemingly uninterested,, just waiting to move on to Newcastle. In short the whole situation surrounding the club is a massive shambles.. Is there light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks for your comments...The board is the main problem...that will not change...

mcGregor is the Issue...players will not come here ...eg Suli/douehi...and there are others...

Nothing to do with millward...he has to allegedly offer 'Overs" just to get them across the line....and even then it hasn't worked....

We do want another coach but I was just thinking about how good Parra is doing these days. Haven't won much for a while but they play strong and hard and score some exciting tries. Their coach Brad Authur has been there since 2013 so he is going well. Just remember at one stage he was under the pump Parra were getting rolled and there was a chance Authur was being shown the door. And he has had a revolving door regarding players until he finally struck gold. Don't think Mary has the same respect from players to keep him any longer

Trouble is, when you hold everyone responsible, you hold no one responsible.

benny boy told mary , your not needed, and moved mary on

Very good point blue bags - it would seem that someone other than Bennett in the Dragon den was of the same thinking . Pity whomever it was does no longer have the same sway , if he is still around .

Frizzell and Cam are the only forwards having a go.

I think Frizell is somewhat overrated and we should now start with the younger guys and start some form of succession plan because this season is a waste.
McGregor will be gone soon and time to rebuild with some solid foundation for the future.
We will have some short term pain but with good coaching and management we will come good.
I am not holding my breath.
