    2025 Pre-Season Challenge - Trials

    Frankly I don't know why you wouldn't pick a strong side, I mean the whole idea of trials is to get your first team match-ready for the start of the season. Those teams that take it seriously will hit the ground running in round 1. Yes there's risk of injury but that's also the case with...

    2025 Pre-Season Challenge - Trials

    With most of the top 30 being selected for this one, do we know why Fifita wasn't there, is he injured?

    I’d go one further and say it’s impossible to ban media from reporting. I think what you can do though as an organisation is make statements to the media explaining there is a player welfare issue which requires medical support and request the media show some compassion and restraint. Basically...

    Agreed. All 3 of those blokes have bled for the dragons so good luck to them. Except when they play against us.

    You're probably right there mate. I don't think Flanagan wanted to lose him though.

    No jubilee, Webb refuted this in his interview, he said the player has been granted leave and is not in breach.

    I think there are complications with this which is what Flanagan was alluding to. Let's say he goes through an assessment, is deemed to be mentally ill and released from his contract with some kind of payout. Firstly that process could take quite some time, so we wouldn't be able to fill his...

    That doesn’t sound great.

    That's where the coach comes in. A lot's been said about Flanagan being a good man-manager. Well this is an opportunity for him to prove that's correct. Apparently Molo has no issue with Flanagan so once the HR process is complete it's up to him to find a way to get the player motivated and back...

    Quite easily Young Dragon, he's been granted leave so he's currently not in breach of his contract. If they can resolve the issue he's got with the particular staff member (which they're trying to do) then he could well come back. Webb has specifically said that they knocked back his request...

    I honestly don't think we're securing a top line prop for 2025 at this late stage. I think we're better off sorting molo out and getting him up and running again. He can go at the end of the season if we get a decent replacement. Surely when he understands the club hasn't granted a release he'll...

    Our top 30 is full so cap space or not we couldn’t fit him once they decided they wanted guler. That’s why they offered him t&t which understandably he turned down. I suppose we will find out over the course of the season whether guler or lodge play better.

    At this stage it seems to be various media outlets picking up the same story and re-hashing it. Haven't seen any comments from Sharks, Dragons or the player or his representatives so I'll stay skeptical for now.

    You’re guessing this are you? Thanks for the insight. I feel like I understand that situation so much more clearly now.

    Charity Shield 2025

    Saw on his interview he’s looking to get some NSW cup games into him first. Probably Lawson would be the same so counts them both out at the start of the season. Start of the season would have to be between Tuipulotu, Ravalawa, Sloan, Feagai and Finau for the two spots. My guess is Tui and...

    Charity Shield 2025

    New halves combo Cook/Liddle rotation Wing situation Val Holmes Gutho getting up them First look at Guler Maybe first look at big Loko and some of the other kids Couchman boys a year older and more mature So many things to look forward to. Can’t wait.

    Think we did this last year as well from memory, and Manly released some footage.
