Favourite 2017 Dragons Player

[BringTheNoise]

Unfortunately there aren't too many positives to discuss at this stage of the season but I thought I would chuck this poll up and see who (if anyone) was a shining light for you during this miserable season.

Let us know who your favourite player to watch in 2016 was. Apologies if it was someone not on the list (ie Mitch Rein).

For mine it was Russell Packer. When the club was first linked to him I was vehemently opposed to signing him, but after reading a few background stories on him and his road to redemption I softened my stance on him. Then watching what he delivers on the field I became a real fan of the bloke. In my opinion he's a bloke we could build a very good side around (assuming we get things right in the coaching/recruitment/front office first).

Sims is my vote, i think he was the missing x factor in the roosters game

 

[Tuddy]

Tyson Frizell.

His performances during State of Origin were the highlight of my rugby league year.

 

[Sans Souci Sainter]

Packer for mine. Definitely the most consistent.

 

[Old Timer]

Kurt Mann for mine.
Rocky start but has improved with every game since being back in 1st grade.
Could have easily gone the other way and is indelible proof of benefiting from his time with JD.

 

[Country Dragon]

Taane Milne,could be a real superstar.If only we had a first grade coach!!!

x2.
I enjoy watching him play. He looks like he is getting back to his NQ form.
Has been in beast mode since arriving.

Goddamn! I think I'm in too much a hurry for 2016 season to be over! Unfortunately I can't edit the poll or thread title.

Mods - any chance we could change titles to "2016"?

Cheers.

I loved watching Friz excel and sims has been awesome but for mine it's packer

Any decent hooker or half would have a field day off the back of his hard charges and quick play the balls but alas we have neither.

Oh, and he made Fifita poop his pants!

Well played sir!

 

[Como Connection]

Kurt Mann for me.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Dugan. Love watching him run. I'd love to watch him pass as well but that's for another day.

 

[Slippery Morris]

Tyson, Euan. Milne, Sims, De Bellin, Thommo, Mann and Nighty (of course) are my best for the season. The rest have had better season's that is for sure.

 

[Zucchini]

Aitken for me. Punches above his weight week in, week out. He and Thompson both play like they really give a shit. Sadly, something that can't be said for all of our side.

 

[Eatons Hill Dragon]

I can't choose between Sam Isemonger & Ricky Thorby.
Sorry wrong year, we were sh!t in 2007 as well.

 

[GeeJay 2]

Tyson for me. Tough, hard and honest. Character that a forward should show each week. Great example to younger forwards how to go about their work.

 

[watatank]

Nightingale.

 

[Coffs dragon]

Euan Aitken for still improving under a clueless coach and a game plan where he gets little ball.
And a big wrap for Trent Merrin for the foresight to leave a sinking ship and join an exciting club and team on the rise whilst being engaged to Sally. He's on a roll and scores more than any points allocated.
