    OT, Medical Advice Please

    Blacksafake, you have shown great courage in posting this information here. Big props to you. Like a lot of others, I have no personal experience with this matter, but can imagine your courage will be invaluable over the coming weeks. I wish you all the best mate.

    Not getting ahead of ourselves but….

    Crush, I’m going to take your optimistic attitude and raise it, a little. ;) Looking at The Ladder, if you have 14 points you’re in the 8. So we only (?) need to string 3 or 4 wins together and suddenly we’re in the 8. I predict that run to start tonight!

    Dragons v Broncos Rd 3 2023

    Just saw the team list. Hook hasn't changed. It's another cut and paste job. But hang on... Round 2 displayed some brave selections. And everyone played well. Well done Hook. Excellent cutting and pasting. Keep it going.

    Dragons v Titans Round 2, 2023

    Haha. In your dreams poss. But it is a good dream.

    Dragons v Titans Round 2, 2023

    Count me in RedV. This is an interesting team and shows some risk taking by Hook. I could not believe it when I saw the Team. And those left out. The death riders will say Hook was forced into it. But not me. Good work Hook. Also good to see Sullivan fit and able to start. Rip it up Bud. You too...

    Raiders game.

    I am (or more correctly was) a Dusty lover, but you are 110% right there Big Rig. Ramsay had a very good game and it has been that way since he took over. And that’s not being critical of Sloan. He’ll be back. Somewhere, sometime, in the team.

    Oh, bad luck. All you got was some nice golfing gear. Luckily you had that piggy bank to fall back on.

    That's a very very very sad story SnowDragon. But like Gareth67 says - you seem to have plenty of red and white blood in those veins. So you'll pull through. (we hope) I also hope you can make it to a game at Jubilee his year. If not, you'll just have to wait for that World Club Challenge in...

    How did you get on OED? By your silence, maybe not. I was lucky - just got mine as a birthday present! We sit on JO hill, so seat allocation irrelevant to us. I am looking forward to this year. A good blend of the old and the new...

    Dragons re-sign Mikaele Ravalawa

    Haha. That WOULD be good. Me being a Dufty lover. He has (or had?) his weaknesses, but boy oh boy, he could do some amazing things. I know this is not the thread, but... It's like he was a "poor mans" Teddy Goodwin. No offence Duff. I wish you all the best. You can do it.

    I can understand why you would think like that ALSGI. About the toy soldiers. I was in the cadet band at my school. Played bugle/trumpet. You would have doubly "hated" me. I wasn't even a real cadet! :-)

    Sorry to hear that Trif. Perhaps you added it in the wrong place. 😄

    George Burgess

    Ha ha. It seems high risk to me. But you say it has been OKd by the NRL. For his well being (especially) and the Dragons, I hope it succeeds.

    George Burgess

    Imagine if he got tackled and his leg came off. On second thoughts, let’s not imagine. If he can be half as good as he was at his peak, he will be a good buy. Best wishes George. Keep healthy.

    Navajo Doyle

    I would have signed him for his name alone. I realise it’s a stretch (into the future), but Interesting that he seems to be forgoing playing for the All Blacks to play with us.

    Norm Provan RIP

    It was maybe '61 or so and I was 12 when I first saw him play. Not that I will pretend to remember the game. But I do remember the awe that surrounded that man. And like others in here, i was "locked in" thereafter (to that damn RedV). Role Model is an often mis-used term in sport, but Norm...

    Nice remarks BRV. And yes, those panthers have a lot to learn about respect.

    Matt Dufty

    (written before SOO 2) With Reece Walsh now out, or even before, if Duff was a Queenslander he would have been playing SOO tonight. But he's from Penshurst. And that's in NSW. Right? Go on. Select him. It's within the rules. You've got nothing to lose.

    Matt Dufty

    Exactly bigredv. Put the microscope on any player and you will find any number of "deficencies". Hardly fair when Duff has so much to offer on the "other side of the ball" (as hook would say). Imagine if this had happened to Blacklock or Soward. They would have been moved on...

    For starters, Ramsey showed nothing in his two games at fullback - “let” tries in like Duffy. But on the other side of the coin, created nil. Having said that, I like Ramsey and hope he is a long term player with us. And as for duff being 5 years in first grade.. huh. He had a “coach” who...
