Flanno had nothing to do with brining these kids
And you know this ....how? It is ridiculous to suggest that a coach who still has 1 and a half seasons to go on his current contract, has nothing to do with the signature of two young guns. You guys want to blame him solely for perceived bad recruitment, but give him no credit for perceived good recruitment. Can't have it both ways. He is the Head coach afterall.

Weren't you claiming he was deliberately sabotaging the future of the club just a few days ago?
Yes and I stand by it.

What's he doing to improve the future of the club?

Signing a couple of 16 year olds with potential doesn't mean the future of the club is secure or that he has the club's best interests at heart does it?

BUT...according to reports he set out his vision for the club going forward and their future pathway at the Dragons....he must have said something right to give them confidence to sign up...

Those kids won't be playing 1st grade in the next 2 years, he'll have his meeting with them as would any head coach but all the recruitment is done prior. It's just a checklist item meeting the head coach, the head coach is worried about NRL squad not u16 players lol. Everyone has their role to play in recruitment, junior recruitment isn't done by the head coach.

His vision: Kyle numero uno, everyone else pooey.

Sure he gave the general spiel like he would to all prospective youngsters but a head coach doing junior recruitment would be disastrous. Head coaches have enough on their plate with the 1st grade squad, let alone u16 players.

Kyle Stanley seems to be doing a reasonable job with recruiting younger players. What we do need is a quality half and a very good front rower that likes chewing up the hard yards.
If we do look at a quality half I hope it's not Cherry Evans as he is just to old to pay good coin.
I agree but there isn't any good quality 7's available that's the issue. Fogarty would've been good. I can't understand why we didn't try get him
