B.S.
Was it you, Mr "Guest Moderator" who banned me? Does a "guest moderator" have the power to do that? Anyway, as for me having 2 accounts, believe what ever you want. I don't care about that but don't ban me again!

Go for it, just bag out Doust for everything that's wrong, but give him no credit for any success he's been involved in delivering.
Fact: we are the only club not privately owned which has won a GF in the past 5 seasons.

That's a little harsh but clearly his time has come and gone. He was a really good fullback and a safe, solid, if uncreative halfback but when Gaz and Boyd were creating most of the tries, he could get away with it. Not anymore! He must retire for the good of the team or Price must man-up and drop him.
Most of you guys don't get it.
Hornby is not playing for "personal glory" or as a complacent crap player, he's busting a gut each week while you sit in your ultra supporters or Foxtel armchair. Some of the vitriolic comments here, sadly, remind me of the scum that jumps in to kick someone on the ground.
Disgusting.
Hornby is playing because he's picked each week as the best halfback and captain we have.
Sure there's differing opinions about how well he's playing, but FFS, who's (realistically) going to take his place and steer the team as captain and 1/2?:
- Soward ?
- Stanley ?
- Rein ?
- King ?
- Fein
- f**king Vidot ?
- maybe the famous Marketo ?
- shit, let's play Fritzell !
Many of you look for negatives and see the worst.
There's no question that Ben Hornby is in the twilight of his career - I also reckon a fair percentage of you wouldn't have a clue what that really means.
In the absence of a better half and captain, tell f**king Doust what you want, do not bag off on someone with a bigger heart and more passion than you have now, and possibly ever will have, in the future.
Part fact I'd suggest

Excuse me. Is this place full of snitches or are our excellent "guest moderators" (LOL) sitting around waiting for someone to post they suspect is me?
Anyway, on topic. The problem is he isn't leading the team around the field and is no longer a good captain. We all saw the little episode with Rein, one the teams better players this year and then Honrby completely screw up a filed goal from the same part of the field a week later.
I would try Soward at 1/2 and Stanley at 5/8 for a few weeks and if that wasn't working out, try King at 1/2. If that doesn't work out, well cross that bridge if and when they come to it.
Thanks Father.
What do they say, never let facts get in the way of a good story?

Hmmmm The Dragons don't have the funds to fill the salary cap?
I think Price has mostly inherited the problems from Bennett. If Bennett had been playing on staying Hornby would certainly have gotten a tap on the shoulder before this season. Still, it's Price who keeps sticking with the same, terrible formula. One would think Bennett has been in his ear about sticking with the same team no matter how badly they are playing.
