How many times will we blame the players when it starts at the top.
Not letting duges and the players completely off the hook after todays shambles but Mcgregor deadset has about as much of a clue about coaching as us average fans.
And he is meant to be an expert.
Please

True, he had a go today and almost sealed the game for us. I was one of his biggest critics after Broncos game, where I thought, his attitude was poor and then the missed bus saga.. But Over the years he has shown a lot of passion and heart and I will remember him fondly. You could see how shattered he was after the loss, it meant a lot to him. But next season I will be giving him shit.

Dugan never learn't the art of passing but he scored some spectacular tries. In many games he tried to lift the side with his hard running kick returns. McGregor moving him to centre played one part of the team's unravelling after such a great start to the season. Dugan under a proper coach will realise his potential as he did on the last Kangaroo tour. I'm sure if we had a real coach he would not be leaving the Dragons.

But he is a world class player, unfortunately when we needed him ie catch the ball and score two tries he didn't deliver however, his best position isn't centre and he gave it a red hot go there.

Now that I have cooled off a bit...If I am being honest he did serve us well as a fullback. Saved a lot of tries for us over the years.

Unfortunately, despite what he thinks, he wasn't worth the price tag he put on himself and it was an easy decision to send him packing.

He will go on to do good things for Cronulla but he will never be a world class player. I think today was a perfect example of that. I thought he had missed the bus again until he gave away that dumb penalty. Overrated.

No No No. This (the writing has been on the wall for a long time) has been coming from way back.
They BullS%@t to themselves say it's all good.

Now They've been found out.

We the fans have known this and they think we're just raving idiots... Well guess what.
this fan will not spend a RED V sent on 2018.

Note to Ben Hunt - Get your lawyers onto your contract - look for that loophole.
Mary will destroy your career and 4year contract extention Widhop will ride your coat tails for every game

Yes he has been a a bit of dick this year, and dragged the contract extension for too long...but one thing was for sure, his kick returns at least had more punch...we all knew his liabilities with lack of a passing game...young Dufty today has big shoes to fill...I think we have question mark over Dufty as Fullback...he needs a huge off season.

Bit rich to solely bag Dugan for today.
Direct that anger to a coach who again didn't use the bench, couldn't get his team fired up etc.
I agree mate.....youve had your ups and downs Duges but thanks for all the times youve tried your guts out busted your arse for us ....personally Im sorry to see you go.....theres a few others that I would be happier to see leaving and I mean it....thanks fella go well

Josh Dugan - Never quite good enough......
Reality yesterday set in for Duges after that inglorious team effort . Interestingly when Dugan was fullback we were leading the Comp up till round 7...Off to the Sharks who are terribly nervous about his impending arrival...Thinking there is more to play out here as Bird is presently at odds with the playing group along with Maloney...Cronk sitting back and watching dramas unravelling at Penrith , Cronulla and the Grubs.The silly season is about to begin

A dickhead like Dugan can be spotted a mile away with those ridiculous tattoos. I don't begrudge anyone the odd tattoo here and there but when a person's entire body is covered in them, it's a red flag of mental illness.

One of the funniest sights over the last four years was seeing Dugan get knocked out. That stupid running style of his as he runs into the defence and gets absolutely whacked...the Dragons trainers will be happy Dugan is gone; they ran half marathons every time Dugan played because they kept having to rush out onto the field every time the cat made a hit up.
