Is there a lesson to be learnt from the Club?

Bloody oath there is.

Do not sign players with bad injury histories , bad character and unreliable attitudes to inflated 4 year contracts and expect those traits to dramatically change.

4 year deals to the likes of Dugan and Moylan was stupidity at the highest.

It has farked up our cap with little in return from either.

Thankfully listening to John Morris recently the main criteria going forward in recruitment will be character.

Is that a lesson for the club or is the lesson don't sign coaches who will sign any big name snorkel on inflated contracts and outside the cap

Good luck Dragons. Pissflap is gonna fekk you guys over

Lesson for the Club to not sign off on stupidity.

Flanno’s recruitment in his early years was pure genius.

Flanno’s recruitment in his last couple of years at the Club was ego driven and plain stupidity.

Nose out of joint syndrome. NOOJS

Holmes wants fullback, we sign Dugan. NOOJS and leaves.
Moylan wants 5/8, we sign Johnson. NOOJS twice, Moylan has to play fullback, Dugan wing.
Morris wants centre, we sign Ramien, NOOJS. twice, Dugan wants centre also.

Agree. When you sign Ennis, Lewis, Heigno you get professionalism, quality and desire. They build you on the field and off the field. The Sharks stood for toughness and ruthlessness.

Then Flange lost a few key position backs and made panic, big name signings in Dugan, Moylan and Johnson to keep the premiership window open. Those players so not stand for toughness and ruthlessness. They dont have a record of success at club level and are on inflated contracts that do not match output.

Flange's screw ups have created a mess that Morris has to fix. The club has to get its identity back and build on the good juniors that have come through the junior pathways.

So true.

Ennis.
Maloney.
Lewie.

It was moneyball.

They not only get to first base everygame..it was paradise by the dashboard light.

Alex jonhston.

Not on waynes radar for this season.

Would jump at a chance of a regular spot.

Fullback. Wing. Centre
He's a good winger but another one with delusions of fullback or at least fullback money

I would take a fit Dugan over Ramien @ right centre.

Ramien has yet to impress me pretty much ever.

It would be remiss of me not to say Shaun came to us after a NOOJS at the warriors.
Ramien from Newy NOOJS.
Moylan from Penrith NOOJS.
Dugan from Canberra then Saints NOOJS.
Even Andrew from Wests NOOJS.

Wade we stole.
