Everyone needs to get off this kids back. He was great yesterday. Mary had a game plan and injuries cost the dragons. We need to extend dufty's contract soon so the loser supporters don't scare him away. He will play origin soon.

If that was Melbourne they would have eclipsed the 70 to 10 embarrassment of the past.

I am sick and tired of the media and players having a go at us dragons fans calling us crisis merchants. Screw you! Lets look at the last 4 seasons?

1. Start strongly and have just made the 8 on 2 occasions.

2. Countless times having good reason and motivation to win a match and falling short.

3. Being beaten, correction smashed !
By teams out side the 8.

4. Being the worst defensive side in the NRL over the past 8 weeks.

The gummies had to perform yesterday against Newcastle and they DID.

It's one of 2 things?
Either our players are playing injured
In which we have talent in NSW cup
which should have been used more often.

Or

The players just don't have the desire to win & someone! 'coach and trainer's '
Should get up their asses.

Let's see how the Dragons turn up against Newcastle as a comparison to the gummie sharks.

No he won't.

So he likes being cheered when winning, cannot cope a boo when playing Shyte.

Kids are like that, needs to grow up and will.

FTR the fans had every right to boo, they paid to get in.

The BS politically correct world we live in!

Teachers can't even mark exams and results in red pen anymore. It's to harsh boo hoo.

It was our teams worst performance at home and so much to play for. Boo boo!

Turn it around dragons team. D4L

IF this is even true then Dufty needs to remember that fans paid good money for the 'pleasure' of watching him, and most of the team, get paid mega bucks to play like that, particularly on such an occasion as yesterday.

But without evidence I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. When this club hits the skids as it has over the past decade (!!), these types of rumours are rampant.

Matt Dufty on abusive fans:

'Without being rude, they need to wake up to themselves... We've made the finals. Instead of throwing criticism they could show us some support. We try not to focus on external noise but it's hard not to when it's your own fans."

This is the problem .. “we’ve made the finals”... the low bar of mediocrity.. they needed to be drilled with a “foot on the throat” mentality early on in the season. Instead they all believed the world beaters ‘press’ and fell in hook line and sinker.

The fish rots from the head down .. and his ‘rot’ is the adopted mindset now... excuses, kick the tin down the road, always next week, someone else’s fault, tow the ‘company line’.

Given Dufty was ‘benched’ yesterday for reportedly an “attitude adjustment”... you would think he would have been ‘managed’ well enough to not comment on the ‘outside noise’

I guess to think anyone is actually managing anything in the place is actually wishful thinking...

Drain the swamp... if we miss this chance now to do so.. you may never get rid of the leeches.


Apparently dufty went on social media to give it to the fans who booed the team
Shows his immaturity should keep his comments to himself and play bloody football

Said it last week and I shall say once again , some of those players should not be allowed to play in a St.George Illawarra jersey. Harsh , but why rubbish such a proud jersey . Put them out there in a all white outfit , at least they may stem the flow of penalties that have been coming our way of late .



Ooops ! Wrong thread , pardon gents .

I think Dufty needs to have a look at the teams performance and his in particular.
I think Dufty needs a wake up call.
He is not the player he thinks he is. His X factor in games has taken a dive lately, clubs mark him now.
He shoukd have watched Tedesco and see what a fullback really looks like.
I am starting to go off Dufty in a big way.
He is a liability because of his defence and inability to take bombs on the full.
I think Herbert offers more then Dufty

When you're used to accolades and plenty of them it is no doubt hard to adjust to the harsh reality of life in the real world.
The stupidity of the social media issue with Dufty is that surely we must have "minders" who are educating the team especially the young players not to respond to certain types of outbursts by fans.
Our club should be making statements to the team that "we played shit today and we are going to cop plenty of Facebook etc so we will answer in the following manner.
"To all our fans we know we let you down today and that much more was expected of us. We are all taking the loss badly and whilst we can't change that result we can assure we are taking note of how disappointing we were and we will be doing everything in our power to ensure no repeat performances. Thanks for sticking with us and we look forward to hearing your cheers again very soon"
Obviously HO is to f**king stupid to get in front of the game on such important matters as keeping the fan base informed and as happy as circumstances can allow.
