They are making out the police are hungry to find out...why?
To issue more $1,000 fines
Is the NRL employing the top cops to investigate?
Trust me NSW Police have a lot more to worry about than StGeorge. They dealt with the matter on the night and issued the $1000 fines as required. It’s these grubby journo’s who are hell bent on stoking the fire. Knocking on PV’s neighbours doors and getting as much dirt as possible. f**k off you cock heads and leave the matter alone

I’m not privy to the thoughts and opinions that have been written and said beforehand but I really feel sorry for Hook, his coaching staff, management and most importantly you guys the fans.

It is sad, disappointing, no words can really explain it I guess. Leave it that, not worth saying any more really as an outsider looking in.

A SMH article reports that one of the players asked Ben Haran for a beers and bbq get together at WIN stadium to be held on the Sat night for the players, given the bye break and it being a neutral venue where they play and train so within the quarantine bubble. But it was denied on grounds of how they would have to all get home from the venue cause no ubers,taxis to be used. Geez, maybe they could of let them do it and organised a courtesy bus or something? Better than the eventual shit show that's unfolded instead. They made the wrong choice by going and doing it anyway but i'm sure some of the better run clubs will find ways to accomodate team get togethers and transport to keep outside contact.
The daily runnings of the club are just as poor.
There are buses sitting at the back of WIN Stadium. How hard can it be, it was a reasonable request. And Ben Haran stopped it how stupid. Why isn’t he losing his job.

Bit harsh wanting BH head on this one but I agree a bit of planning from the club could have helped. Surely a couple of drivers to get the Sydney boys home and the gong boys home could have avoided all this. Few beers and a bbq at Win Stadium after a recovery session would have been the way to go…

Gotta love the 'anonymous' Dragons player being quoted and to WWOS.

I mean seriously!!!

If such player exists, then why not reveal yourself and at the same time ask for a release if its creating this player divide that cannot be mended.
The players involved are here to stay, some for the remainder of this season, others longer. If you cant deal with it look for the exit, and quickly I may add.

Who cares but I felt the same being a supporter for an instant
The media are just going to take it for its longest ride
Now its the top investihgation matter for the police..wether their women partners were also there who may not be in their little bubble
Really...is that high on their agenda ATM
Dont bother..let em get a test and if all negative again move on
When I heard Hadley going on about it yesterday I was thinking just shut up c$$$, he’s supposed to mates with Hook, do you really think Hook wants this drawn out any longer? There are bigger issues in the world. 50000 is a huge fine no matter who you are.

Starting to think we paid a little too much and for too long on Lomax, hope I'm wrong.
He has showing nothing in first grade.
Cappuccino player. All froth no substance.

Slow, not strong, predictable. He's not that good. Been saying it for years.

Regarding these reports of a Dragons player saying he was ashamed to be a Dragons player - this seems to illustrate the difference between the relentlessly successful Storm and the ever floundering Dragons. When the Storm salary cap scandal was first revealed the Storm closed ranks around all the perpetrators and showed the world a united front. They remained strong. I will never forget Bellamy with the players assembled behind him marching across the field to front the media. It was a powerful symbolic gesture and the club remained tight and successful for years after serving their punishment. We will do the opposite I fear, fall apart at the seams and be lucky to win another game this year. Next year we will not recover and be fighting not to get the spoon. Time for Griffin to pull out all his people management skills and try and turn this around.
