What's this Crap?

SULLIVAN’S NEW HOME 🐶
📰 Fox League

Dragons young gun Jayden Sullivan will reportedly join the Bulldogs for the 2024 season and beyond despite being contracted until the end of 2025.

The 21-year-old signed a contract extension in 2021, committing his future to the Red V club.

However, following the 2022 season Sullivan reportedly requested an immediate release from his contract before he changed his mind to stay at the Dragons.

The young halfback was reportedly left disgruntled after halfback Ben Hunt re-signed but has featured 12 times this season before suffering a hamstring injury in Round 19.

According to The Daily Telegraph, Sullivan will join the Bulldogs next season with Kyle Flanagan joining his dad at the Red V club.

That is despite the signing of Titans young gun Toby Sexton in an immediate switch and paying a $500,000 fee to acquire Broncos prodigy Karl Oloapu.
If there is any truth to this story, then someone needs to go a row and it needs to be handed to them by the NRL and not via a email !!!

How good is it to hear from Flanno statements like I’ve got a plan for Sloan, Lomax. They’ll have a pre season like they’ve never had. Essentially saying he’ll get more out of these guys and recognises their talent.
Unlike Hook who dumped players without explanation.
Finally there are some positive signs.

At last, some confirmed player signings. Good on Rav 4 and JDB for sticking with the club, both would have had interest from other clubs.

Can't wait to see what Flanno can do with Mike Molo, makes quick meters in the middle.
Actually I am interested to see what Flanno does with Ravalawa as he has potential to be better and can pass the ball

he will bulk up Sloane 5kg i reckon and drop 2/3kg of Lomax, the fitness levels will be another level as well

If it’s taken you this long to see Lawrie looks like a Plumb Pudding best you make an appointment at Specsavers.
No need OT. This year he has blown out a bit since the start of the year and even compared to last year. It may be muscle!
My eyes are fine but thanks for the tip

I still rate his potential and his efforts in hitting the ball up
Just needs coaching to vary his running to the line and encouraging off load if he can poke his beak through

Bird is the one who needs Jenny Craig
I think most coaches know that they have no chance of winning a comp or making the top 8, it's all about who can rort the system the best,
Hook knew it from the start ( take the money and run for the hills), thats why our players are sunning themselves, like in Thailand, until this pretend league becomes a worthy comp, where every team has a chance of winning a comp, it will always be the same scenario. BTW god bless John Ribbo and QLD superleague vision!

Gallen's probably right, especially as the Dragons need good seasons before they become attractive to new signings, but there's quite a few players that can improve in a good coaching environment.
He’s right to a point but I do think we have enough in our roster to be much more competitive. Dolphins have won double the amount of games that we have and have a pretty makeshift roster. Euan Aitken, Wallace, Milford, Nikorima. O’Sulivan and Katoa in the halves, Bennett has definitely made the most out of an ordinary roster.
If we can get the best out of Sloan, Suli, Lomax, Su’a, JDB, Lawrie then we can have a much improved season next year and have a real crack in 2025.
