    Rate Gareth Widdop

    I am happy for discussion, but I for one, still rate him. He has been seriously stuffed by the structures put in place by our coach. Like many say on this forum about fringe players who are poor at one club but a champions at another... if he went back to the Storm, signed with the Broncos or...

    Paul McGregor Press Conference Thread

    We are secure in the top 16 and you can't ask for more that that.

    We should call ourselves "The Mighty St George Illawarra Nomads"

    This "Right Game, Right Venue" is an absolute joke! We are playing the Bulldogs at their home ground!! It is a completely farcical situation we are in to be at the mercy of the NRL and our board branding their unrivalled incompetence as "RG, RV"! We MUST become privatised! We MUST remove many...

    Game day V Raiders (round 10)

    Hi Steve, Rein should handle the ball more than Widdop since he is our "dummy" half. I am not saying he does not try hard, but he has no vision and for the most part, stifles our attack. One instance tonight we have a 3 on 1 blindside which Widdop creates by crossing behind the ruck and Rein...

    Broncs game

    Scarily I have to agree with you j0nesy.

    Broncs game

    After that tonight, what little chance we had of attracting Kodi and/or Matt is well and truly gone. Not only do poor performances minimise our chance of making the finals, it kills our recruitment which results in more years of pain! We are now the Steelers! It has been a covert takeover!!!!!!

    Broncs game

    I was holding out hope that McGregor could be the answer after last, but I am afraid it is not looking good. In a previous post on another thread I said I was willing to reserve judgement until round 8...in saying that, I still wanted to see gradual improvement. If anything, we are going...

    Frizell: The Team Is My Priority

    I think it is hard for anyone to look good in our team at the moment. When/if we turn it around, the group will look better. Also, it is obvious we are struggling to score points, hence the reliance on Duges etc ramps up at the expense of others (Frizell). I am not sold on McGregor at all...

    Broncos shopping Gillette and Nikorima to Dragons

    Qld halves are a cut above at the moment due to their junior league rules which encourage to play what you see in front of you, not structure at all costs. For that reason, Kodi will be worth a punt and half or hooker (bye, bye Rein). Gillett, powerful back rower and a perfect compliment to...

    More games will lost at suburban grounds

    One answer is to privatise the club. Bruce Gordon would be the obvious candidate for a takeover, even a hostile one if necessary, to expel the board and create a financially stable club that can control its own destiny without reliance on the governing body. At the moment we are very, very...

    It is official! The NRL is the new English Premier League

    No, I definitely wasn't, because I was not alive then! Back then, you had to play for the district you lived in so the rules were very different and definitely favoured St George. My gripe, is that the NRL boasts that each year any team can win, when realistically under the current system...

    It is official! The NRL is the new English Premier League

    With Roberts signing with the Jack Ass's, we know that he will NOT be taking a salary cut no matter what contract is registered with the NRL says. We really have now 4 teams that can seriously contest for the premiership each year, exactly what we see in with the English Premier League. It...

    James Roberts

    Article Headline The $300k dilemma facing Roberts DALLY M centre of the year James Roberts would have to sacrifice $300,000 to chase an NRL premiership under Wayne Bennett at the Broncos. They can only pay $250,000 per year up against $400,000/year by us. Says he is taking time to think about...

    Personal Attacks

    Hi, I am a massive St George Illawarra Dragons fan and love jumping onto this forum and reading threads about current Dragon related issues. What I do not like seeing is threads turning into personal slanging matches between posters. I am not here to blame anyone, but I am sure we all get...

    2016 Alternate Strip

    Hi all, what do we think about the change to the alternate strip for season 2016? Personally, from what I see, I love it! Here is the link, http://www.dragons.com.au/news/2015/10/25/first_look_2016_alte.html

    Home Grown v Buying the Comp

    BennyV I understand it is hard, but you can't just say it is too hard as the current system is not working to even out the comp. Granted certain players are worth a lot to their team and whether they are rep players or not, a black and white system will prevent either a club stacking rep...

    Home Grown v Buying the Comp

    My opinion is you can't stop players earning endorsements outside their clubs. I live on the Gold Coast and we have Sam Thiaday doing NRMA adverts which would from my understanding be outside the cap (if the Broncos did not organise it for him, which is a big if and proving otherwise would be...

    ISC Marvel Heroes 2015

    Just received an email from the Dragons with a link to a promo for ISC Marvel Heroes Round 21 V Cowboys. Who will we be this year? Will you buy a jersey?

    Dino-sore why?

    I 100% agree with this... We're not lost at f*cking sea champ, we don't need any 'flare.' Some flair might be handy, but 6-2 with our attack still a long way from clicking is a huge effort. And I'd take our underrated 2010 attack over the inconsistent 2005 flashy sh*t any day. Results speak...
