Thanks Sage63, us Westie’s appreciate your support.Your bloody right, they have earned it!!#
Yeah I get what you are saying, but what I can't get over is this high and mighty attitude some people have, claiming that all westies are illiterate bogan's.
I've seen bogans everywhere.
I've lived all over Sydney, north south, east & west.
and I've seen them everywhere.
No one is superior!!
Same here Johnno. Played my junior football in the Penrith Comp back in the early 70’s and played a few games at the old Penrith Park. They’ve just had the good fortune of having all those good juniors coming through at the same time like the Eels in the 80’s. Good luck to them. Just wished we could get some of that luck.
Hey there Owd, I don't consider myself a "Westie".Thanks Sage63, us Westie’s appreciate your support.
That's not right mate. Some areas are stuffed compared to others.No area is superior to any other area!
I have not made any comparison of status of Penrith and anywhere else in my post Sage. I admire the people everywhere no matter where they live or where they are from. I'm just envious of how the Panthers have become so dominant in the past 4 years and those that follow that club are very fortunate now to have such a great team representing the areas out your way. I'm somewhat in the west but because I was born in the St George Hospital and raised for a while in that area, I grew up following the Dragons and remain a die hard fan even though I'm not living in the area.I can't, or don't understand the antipathy towards the Panthers.
my number one team has always been Saints, but in 65, when I moved out to Emu Plains, the Panthers were, and still are my second team.
and for years, they got flogged, and I saw every flogging.
Currently, I give them, my highest appraisal.
good luck to them!!
I take my hat off to them.
and you, that think that they are arrogant bogans , take a look at yourselves!
I think Kevy is pretty keen on hunt. Travelled down to his 300 game dinner or is that 200 , I’ve lost interest in him .Agree with other members , cannot for one moment see the Broncos wishing to swap Adam Reynolds for our pea hearted Hunt .
The likes of such a skilful player as Reynolds coming to the Dragons is just too much to expect .
Shame , as I would take him in a heartbeat
Seriously he is such a tool, should be sacked, he is so negative and spits out poisonous shit like a snakeBUZZ media reporter
Said Renoyds should retire now
I feel that you are correct Gardenia , it’s a too big a move for him at this stage of his career. Shame , as I feel that the Dragons - more so our younger halves - would still benefit from his vast experience , even if it was for a season or two .I

I got the vibe Reynolds was a bit worried during the Hunt to Brisbane rumours.
I can’t see Reynolds wanting to leave QLD to come to us though
I am being picky but he made some minor errors in the GF. Kick out on the full, short drop out that resulted in Brisbane try and last drop out that shoukd have been short but was long
still he played on through injury and he helped get them to the GF. Also many around him have lifted since he joined the Broncos. I like him he is class but I don’t see him wanting to come anyway
The other 3 reporters were laughing there heads off at him Buzz can buzz OFFSeriously he is such a tool, should be sacked, he is so negative and spits out poisonous shit like a snake
Reynolds is a premiership winning half who lifted the Broncos from the bottom of the table to the Grand final only to lose by a whisker against a champion team.Reynolds was very disappointing in the GF especially given the state of the game in the last 20 minutes.
Don’t know if he has 2 more years in him.
let’s hope a few wins under Flano changes Hunt’s attitude

I have watched Reynolds carve us up most times over his whole career.
Yes in the last 17 minutes he made some errors but I have watched our bloke for the last six years and his game if full of errors,,poor decision making and a total inability to lead us to victory whence why we have gone nowhere in six years.
You can not put Hunt anywhere near the level of Reynolds except in his large over paid pay packet.
You left out our key signing so far, Hame Sele.our team just needs a bit if tweaking to really be a force, a couple of weaknesses gone, positions strengthened along with Flannos astute skill, coaching and man management we could be anything very easily...eg, a hypothetical team for 2024...
1.Tracey ( pace, skill, potential, buries Sloan for consistency, body on line, can tackle!)
2. Speedy, new winger who can tackle , maybe thats Finau??
3. Suli ( will improve mountains under Flanno)
4. Lomax ( ditto as Suli)
5. Rav!! ( a freight train say no more!)
6. Flannagan, or Lam, Luai...(we MUST improve on Amone here )
7. Lam, Flannagan, Hunt ( all decent halves)
13. Debelin or Bird ( both superb locks)
12. Sua ( world class)
11. Koloumatangi, Couchman ( love to see us sign the former but Couchy will go alright if not)
10. Saafiti ( get both brothers! prop problem solved!)
9. Ippape, Liddle , Mully, Flannagan ( First options a rolls royce but if not the others will thrive under Deano)
8. Saafiti
bench...
14. Lawrie
15. Molo
16. Couchman
17. Fifita, Tuitivaki
He said he should retire after 2024 not now. I watched NRL 360 when he said it and Reed didn't listen properly.The other 3 reporters were laughing there heads off at him Buzz can buzz OFF
Reynolds had a fantastic season
One of his best seasons
I am hopeful of many of your choices, I would rather many of our juniors and would ask politely that you check one of your superb locks, the one that thinks Dragons Fans dont know what they are talking about.our team just needs a bit if tweaking to really be a force, a couple of weaknesses gone, positions strengthened along with Flannos astute skill, coaching and man management we could be anything very easily...eg, a hypothetical team for 2024...
