Saints are very publically trying to offload Dufty, something BIG is brewing lads..... hopefully a GUN FB like Hayne!

FANTASTIC NEWS!! thanks!

we just werent good enough this season and we werent good enough in the backs! not the forwards.....we NEED changes and we NEED some serious strike power there and to take a few risks

Hayne and Lomax as a gun strike centre pairing is the answer, if were smart..... and quick at signing him!

Millward signed Aitken and Lafai long term and so they will be at the Dragons in 2019. Really, which club would take these two players off our hands. In my opinion Lomax and Mann are currently our best centre pairing option. That being the case, Aitken and Lafai may request a release if they are sent to ISP. Their value on the market would decrease dramatically if they remained in ISP for most of 2019.

Dufty surely is a liability in defence at fullback and so, unless this problem can be rectified there is no way he should be our first grade fullback. If Hayne is signed, I'm sure he will play fullback in 2019 and Dufty will go back to ISP or request a release - which would be granted. Hayne will not be signed as a centre as we already have four first grade centres. If Dufty is not our 2019 fullback then Millward may sign Hayne or some other fullback to take his place.

If Dufty 280k, Aitken 350k, and Lafai 350k were released, that would free up close to 1m cap space; enough to sign any player we want.

I know for a fact that Lafai is on more than 350k and it wouldnt suprise me if Aitken was also on more.

Hayne would be a huge plus for us next season if he can play injury free. Hayne on his best game v Dufty or anyone else having their best game is miles apart. Hayne with a quality halves pairing and brilliant backrow will flourish. Saints losing Nene and Nighty and replacing them with cheap options will free up some cash surely. Hopefully teams can get in the ear of Lafai and get him to leave Saints.

It now appears that the West Tigers ‘ have room in their cap ‘ for Hayne . I thought that the Rorters had a patent on that saying ?

As you say mate, uncle Nick always has the coin but the Hayne Plane may have already ditched into the sea at Bondi previously but a smoother landing with the Tigers out Badgerys Creek way, with or without an airport may be on the cards.

Still haven't given up on a forced landing on the Princess Highway at Carlton, though.
Hoping Millward is waving him in ............... Roger that.

Have a feeling that he won’t be coming OKB1 , however some of the other boys believe that there may be someone else of note arriving instead . So don’t go putting out those 44 gallon drums of kerosene just yet , as he may be arriving on the night of the 1st of November ? Who ever ‘ he ‘ is I have no idea , but I just hope that it will be a major signing , otherwise there will be noone coming !

Spoke to old mate about this recently. He ain’t changing his tune. No Hayne.

I am not allowed to say the rest. I get roused on

Remember last weeks conversation where he told me Dufty may go away???



Interesting times ahead

The old mate..never lets you down.
So why will you not get roused on for saying this much and telling us his name. Roused on?...cant tell?...what you and old mate know will cause a forum or Dragons supporter social media melt down?

Sounds like you are that fly on the wall or that secret player manager agent disguising yourself on this forum....or you know one of the prominent ones.
You know salaries..what else?. Dont keep us all hanging on...do share
We wont hold you to it if you or should I say old mate end up being wrong ;)
Oh well least we know as much as it is no one is coming to our club so we can cross that guess of our list!
