Dragons Squad June 30 Deadline

[Old Timer]

I’m correct..

The facts back me up..

No need to get angry about it..

When you order a quarter pounder at McDonald’s do you then yell at the order taker when you don’t receive a Big Mac?

Angry about it you say, what a joke of a person you continue to be
You just love telling people how they think & feel in some limp attempt to support your pathetic argument.
Keep stomping your foot and telling yourself you are correct whilst having your little temper tantrum and you might just start believing it yourself

As I said depth. And you mentioned TPJ.
We are miles apart on whom we think can play and whom is value but that is what these forums are for.
But all those ones I mentioned some would outshine our current 1sts grade and especially our reserves. There is plenty to pick from

The better ones. Fast powerful winger from the Roosters Ikaluvu, Oates (he will get less now), French from the Eels
Bateman Aloiai..how good are they going. Naden craps on our Aitken & Lafai
Manu Mau, Capewell good utility.
All those can replace who we have in 1st grade ATM

I haven't seen Naden play. The Bateman from Canberra is Luke, who haven't seen play either. Aloiai has already had a stint at our club and didn't make it. Yes Capewell is a good utility, but I wouldn't be signing players for utility value, I would be signing a player to play a specific position and be an upgrade on who we currently have. I also think Capewell would be looking for a regular starting spot.

I will also add that I would be looking at buying players who are going to strengthen our starting line up in Drinkwater, Rapana, Walker and Pangai. They would (I haven't seen Drinkwater play, but the wraps on him are massive) all be upgrades on Dufty, Rava or Pearson, Aitken or Lafai and Graham respectively. M'au would have only been a short term replacement for DeBelin. With the addition of those players I believe we would be a genuine chance of winning next year's comp.

I would have been looking at Kris as a depth player, who could develop into a regular starting first grader.

Have not seen Naden the centre or Bateman?..not seen any Penrith or Canberra games then!..Bateman one of their best and could play 13. Tough Englishman
Aloiai you got the wrong bloke...he is never played at our club..good back or front rower.
You are thinking of that big nuggety front rower we got from the Roosters years ago . somebody similar surname could even be Josh 1st name too...how uncanny

Capewell can play from back row to centre and wing and makes a good fist of it...good depth man. Pay him $100 a year more than the Sharks to secure him

Clearly you meant to order fries too..

Clearly you meant to order fries too..

Clearly your brain is fried
All those years of being pro Illawarra have clearly taken their toll
No doubt you will keep responding as you somehow believe that if you have the last post that validates your position however
the only person that thinks that is you
Your position in this discussion was untenable long ago

lol. You have got Luke Bateman confused with John Bateman. John Bateman is the Englishman. I have seen him play and he is a gooden, but I haven't see Luke Bateman play and it looks like you haven't either. lol

Well if there are 2 Josh Aloiai's who both play middle forward, then you can't blame me for getting confused. I still think there is only one Josh Aloioa.

Naden has only played the last 3 games for Penrith and I haven't watched any of those games.

Why the Illawarra hate? You do realise St George have never won a premiership without them in the fold..

The closer we get to the June 30 deadline the more i'm convinced that:

1. Noone who is of quality wants to come here.
2. The JDB situation ie money available and wether the current appeal is successful wouldn't entice anyone.
3. We will promote from within either from the DS or a part-timer.
4. Recruit from another CC or QCUP team ie: a nobody eg Luke Page type

To me Friz is more likely to fill the lock role until at least a decision on JDB is made.
Our most contentious positions are fullback and centre imo. I cant see anyone coming to fill those

Especially under the coaching of L plate.
Was talking to friend who knows a player manager with a few players on his books & apparently the McGregor factor is a turn off to most players or their managers.

 

[J.moz]

Fullback and a quality prop who can offload.ASAP.

1 Touche...got me, it is wrong one. Cross him of my list
2.No, there is only 1. The one at our club u were thinking of I remebered it was Josh Ailaomai or similar name who you were thinking off, signed in the Price area
3. Ok

Drinkwater signed with the Cowboys. Rapana is good but getting old and injury riddled, Walker no thanks most hated player in league ATM, Pangai for less money Ok

I’m just an average person..

I only appear intelligent by comparison..

Very average...by any comparison.

The illawarra boys club faction is what's driving this club to the scrap heap.
Any wonder there's some hate there.
Mary's doing well guiding us towards a battle for the spoon this season...

 

[Crush]

Slow day for Muzby and OT?

Not surprising at all and explains why we struggle to attract quality.
Look how quickly Bennett pulled together a premiership winning squad.
Head coach is a massive influence on the fortunes of any club.

Illawarra hate as you put it is easy because of self righteous gits like you

 

[hewi]

I hate repeating myself but Gould’s response to removing Griffin summed it up, we weren’t going to win a premiership with him well FFS if that was Griffin what hope is there with the moron we have. Nine years since Bennett one us one and the only light in the tunnel is the f###ing train coming to get us.

Bring on Gould and apply his theory at SGI. Mary gonsky!

Hey Blacksafake, it's not only managers & most players.....I'm sure all fans and supporters of the Dragons are completely turned off by L plate McGoose.
