Understand everyone's frustration, but take it easy guys, we need the right dominoes to fall, its a tricky situation. Whilst we all point out Parra have a think about the Rorters, how many players have they lost, all on big money, so they have a war chest no doubt about it. Now how many players have we seen they are getting, but you know they are.
It is like kids waiting for Christmas Day to arrive so that they can see what Santa left them. We are waiting to see who we will get and are hoping for Santa Flanno to get and give us some beauties that will make all our Christmas wishes come true and the New Year will indeed be a happy one. I believe in fairy tales hahaha!

Take away Mam, and the rest is feasible.. not sure on Thompson, but I had heard his name before.

Also dont think we move Lawrie on, unless we decide were just going to pay 90% of his contract out... we may just keep him as depth for nsw cup.. sort of depends a bit on whats happening with some of the other boys, and the couchies too.

I heard that the Tigers are willing to pay 300k of Bateman’s 650k salary to get him off their books. We would have to do similar to get rid of Lawrie.

Fell out with Benji. He’d be good for 300 ( under the average salary) for a fresh start.

450-500 for Hastings might be value with Newcastle to chuck in the balance of his outrageous contract.

You can’t judge either of them in their current form, Flanno is going to help their games, so you add 10% increase in performance before they pull on a training sock.

Which means to have a poor season at SGI takes a bit more effort than at most other clubs.

He’s exceeded all expectations.

There were some really flat performances….that seemed to come out of nowhere… which is still a worry I guess. I’m sure he was beyond furious.

I'm worried about Halangahu at November 1. we have some pretty good back rowers so i can't see him playing first grade next year but there will most certainly be teams sniffing
- NSW u19s SOO at age 17
- Australian Schoolboys a year young, then captain the following year
- NSWCCC player of the year

I think teams will be lining up for him more than the couchies

Him and his family are moving down to the gong this year just to be at the Dragons. Would seem a long shot they'd pack everything up and move again without something already in place (at least in principal) beyond 2025. In fact it would be borderline absurdity if we've assisted in all this moving for him and we haven't got something in place. I know we're the Dragons.. but surely with this one we've locked him up

Father is still living in Sydney. The little bro could stay in our junior ranks in Wollongong and Jacob could easily move back in with his dad if a clear path to first grade is offered by a Sydney club and we haven’t locked him down
