    Season 2024 over

    Happy Father's Day Crush. I'm just off to the cemetery to put some beautiful flowers from our garden for my Dad & Mum (great Dragon supporters) and then off to Yum Cha at my favourite place in Chatswood and will knock down a few Ching Tao's and maybe a Riesling or two. The wins aren't lost on...

    Season 2024 over

    The ignominious nature of some of the losses this year and in particular yesterday’s one are what really cuts to the bone. Shameful, embarrassing, sole less, deplorable, devastating, gut wrenching are just some of the words to describe them. I posted many games ago that the last 3 games of the...

    Parra R 26 Now or Never.

    And people keep insisting we have improved FMD I would love to know where.

    Parra R 26 Now or Never.

    Yep pulled both early on in the season or at least I hope that’s the case Surely a healthy winger can’t be that slow?

    The Rumours Thread

    There was nothing wrong with it but as expansion of the comp was undertaken external of Sydney the new clubs could not implement 3 grades to comply. So that meant that competent reserve graders all of a sudden had better opportunities elsewhere.

    The Rumours Thread

    We once had the ability to let the likes of Johnny Greaves, Brian Graham and Josh Morris leave but then again Wayne did f**k that up big time.

    Much better option than Gutho or Sloan

    Flanno's New Signings

    Surely Teddy for 3 would make better sense than Gutho for 2 as was discussed in here?

    Flanno's New Signings

    Tedesco has 1 year left at the Roosters and looking for an extension. According to the idiots on NRL 360 Easts maybe offering him 1 year extra and then revisit it after that. Should we shake that tree and offer him 3 years starting 2025?

    Flanno's New Signings

    I knew you had it in you another pre-season with me and you'll make a 1st grade poster.

    Flanno's New Signings

    Their issues are far more coach / club related than roster. Their recruitment of players is far better than their recruitment of coaching staff.

    Panthers Taylor May

    I love the way Dugan gets roped into these conversations. His misdemeanour was nothing like Packer or May. Packer did his time and showed remorse and contrition. May is grub and should be a big no from everyone.

    Round 25 v Sharks

    Ok spell it out for me Is the defence better or have we copped some absolute embarrasing floggings? Is the attack better and are we now scoring well structured team tries including from long range or are we as pedestrian as always? Have the week as piss capitulations stopped? Have we strung...

    Round 25 v Sharks

    I’m not twisting anything I’m merely pointing out what he said and how it is panning out. He never said it all happens in the 2nd year he was saying this us what you get from him as coach from the get go however you and others are cutting him slack that he never asked for trying to deflect the...

    Round 25 v Sharks

    So no need to hold him accountable to his own KPI’s?

    Round 25 v Sharks

    I agree the roster is a huge issue so why did S F say the things I quoted in the previous post that you responded to? I am merely holding him responsible for his own statements. Results this year similar to 2022 and fair to say this roster is marginally better than the 2022 team so where is...

    Round 25 v Sharks

    What I was told to expect is a team that would be fit, tough, defensively sound, wouldn’t beat themselves and other teams would have to beat us on their own merits. If that had of occurred then I would admit we have improved even if we weren’t winning. But by any measure we have not ticked...

    Round 25 v Sharks

    The fanfare surrounding S F and the constant talking him up with what he has done with this team means that with 3 rounds to go we shouldn’t be copping a flogging after a tough win. The +/- clearly shows we are a poor team in attack & defence however some think including the dumb arse media...

    Round 25 v Sharks

    We are a very ugly duckling Even when we win we are anything but a good looking well drilled side Our few good wins this season unfortunately give rise to optimism that is not sustainable week in week out. Some posters are happy with the weeks in some posters pissed off with the weeks out but...
