Dragons coach Paul McGregor has denied rumours linking Tyson Frizell with a move to the Roosters following his side’s 40-18 loss to the Panthers.

Rumours circulated on Friday morning that Frizell was unhappy at the Dragons and could be on his way to Bondi to replace Angus Crichton.

“Tyson’s manager politely rang me this morning and said it couldn’t be further from the truth,” Paul McGregor said in his post-match press conference.

Rumour Mill: Tyson Frizell looks likely to join Roosters. Frizell is desperately unhappy at the Dragons, particularly with the club’s position on Jack De Belin, and has already asked for a release. https://t.co/glP92aQBTO

It’s no joke. Frizell asked for a release two weeks ago..

“He said while ever I am coach he is here and he has got another year to run on his contract.

“Me and Tyson have been together for 130 games and I’ve seen him develop from a young man into a father with a good married life.


“He went from being a fringe player into the most decorated player in our side and an Australian player.

“Our relationship goes way back, so if you are looking for a fight there is certainly not one between me and him.”



Frizell adressed the rumours in speaking to to Dragons.com.au following his 150th game for the club against the Panthers.

“Obviously there have been some rumours circling around about my future at the club and for me nothing has changed,” Frizell told Dragons.com.au.

“I’m here until the end of 2020 and as long as I’m welcome at the club I’ll be here until then and all those rumoursew that have been tossed around are very false.”

Fox League’s Hannah Hollis confirmed during the match at Panthers stadium that Frizell strenuously denied the reports.

“I have spoken to Tyson Frizell and he has confirmed the rumours are untrue,” Hollis said.

Roosters coach Trent Robinson also moved to squash reports the Tricolours are looking to offload Crichton

“It’s ridiculous, it’s a silly question. He gets asked every week. I’m starting to get asked, it’s silly questions.” Robinson said.

Angus Crichton won’t be going anywhere, according to Trent Robinson.Source: AAP
“He answers that he’s really happy, we’re really happy with him and we’re developing our game … You say you don’t want to perpetuate that but you have.

“It is silly to be asked. He did something earlier in the week and about developing his game.

“Just because someone’s not in the same position they want to be in, so therefore they’re unhappy.

“That’s pretty basic thinking. That’s the whole thing about being a part of a team and a club is to develop a team and you as an individual and he’s fighting hard and he’s enjoying the contest of that.

“That’s what he’s said and that’s the way we’re feeling about it.”

You could cut and paste that quote attributed to McGregor because he pretty much said the same thing (verbatim) just prior to Brett Morris’s departure.

McIdiot has a knack of pissing the best players off. This will transpire into another example.

Friz: "My manager… we don’t know what’s going on. I don’t know where these rumours have come from. They’re just rumours, at the moment."

I don't like 'at the moment'. There may not be fire, but there's still some smoke there.

A lot more media now running stories about Mary’s job on the line. I dare say they see blood in the water already and with a loss to Souths 99% locked in, it will only get worse.
My concern is that the Club will not do anything and we may end up winless till season end then they rollout a pallet of excuses. We miss spoon by a hair.
Key players ask for a release and Mary is coach again and we have a team of cast offs and fringe players - making 2020 even worse...but with the spoon in hand.

If that happens to us fans it will be like kicking a puppy :(

The fans need to write letters to the CEO and board . Fix this mess or we are out
