Lack of mongrel and pack mentality. 7. Poor coaching/ Game plans on opposition. 8. Lack of concentration for 80 minute duration of game. 9. Poor roster management ie; ( Garrick, Robson, Timm ) 10.

The Halfs have been such a go to for Dragons...And Benny and crew cant handle the stress on them...why cant are Hooker roll over or somerging different. Where to predictable and boring its like GROUND HOG DAY!!!U betcha

All the on field problems they have stem from not being coached well enough. Simple. Get a coach that has an idea on how to prepare a team to win games with multiple tactics/game plans not just 1 based on a player or 2 and a player gets injured then no plan B, then you have a problem. That makes me sick to the stomach hearing Mary based his whole game plan on Widdop and JDB hence why they struggled. How can anyone seriously hear that and think he is a capable coach?

He probably didn't have a plan around anything or anybody......it's just a handy excuse to go with his many others he makes up. So dishartening

For me - It's simple.
Didn't renew my membership. Absolutely no games this 2020 season
Told mates (who support different sides) not talk about Saints
Happy to talk their side's footy.
Will not be watching TV Saints games
The BS propaganda that was last Sunday's tele was Thick with BS
See see only Groundhog day.
While I'm out might learn the the piano or Ice sculpture Andie Mac Dowell.
Oh and finish my second novel - But there will be no Saint George - Illawarragroundhogday-billmurray-bed.jpg
