Hunt pleading for time

[BLM01]

Once he is eligible to play first grade, I thind that Wishart will jump the que to be our long term hooker. Like with many of our youngsters, he will need to improve his defence first.

You will be waiting for a while.
Eligible or not he’s not ready for 1st grade
he’s gotta consolidate himself in Reggie’s first for this season and see how he goes and develops working on a few things in attack as well
Yes he seems like a good player with potential but Brittain is ahead of him
Whether he plays nine or six he still gotta find the right option and improve his kicking game
There’s a reason we signed Macca for 3 years

Just on Hunt, I dont think he will be at SGI next year. He is a sensitive bloke that doesn't do well with media.
When/if the Dragons get the spoon this year the media will have a field day with Hunt. I reckon he will be back in QLD next year.
2 new halves in 2022.
Prediction.

 

[BBTB]

Somehow I don't think so. We have lost Frizell and McIness for the season and they are replaced with ????.

Kerr & McCullough.
What s f**kn joke.

Disagree mate.

We won’t get the spoon and will surprise many imo. I reckon 7th to 10th. If those other twits were still coaching us this year with our current squad a very real chance of the spoon.

Ben won’t get anywhere near the 850k we’re paying him on current form so he won’t go anywhere. I’m hoping he’ll improve big time as Capt and not writing him off yet based on trials. Regardless he won’t be offered 850k-900k again so he’ll be here for a while imo.

What can you see in the tea leaves that indicates anything more than bottom 4? Sorry man, I can’t see us anywhere near the top 8 this year.

We very well could surprise many but it’s going to take a mighty effort. This is the weakest top 30 we have had I think since the JV began but one chock full of potential.

Kerr & McCullough.
What s f**kn joke.

Kerr will be great this year maybe better than Friz and who knows with Macca, let’s give the side a month as Hunt requested to click into a new style.

How long before we see a Punt Hunt banner on the hill at Kogarah?

Understand yours and many other’s concerns completely which are also shared by me, but....I have a dream.

1. Trials mean shit in terms of the season and hoping the coaches saw what they needed to see and know what to do about it.

2. I hope that 3 x FG experienced coaches will make a difference, along with other various staff ‘untouched’ by the previous morons. Potentially a great coaching formula.

3. Captaincy to Hunt and Contract Year to Norman and others has got to put a firecracker up them? Surely?

4. I’d happily see the back of JDB but I reckon he’ll be back soon and with a vengeance that will inspire.

5. Lomax will play SOO this year and become a superstar.

6. KERR, LAWRIE, FORD, FUI will have massive years.

7. Ramsay will be sensational and the twins will get a crack later in the year.

8. BIRD will be the best signing in 2021 and will play a utility role in SOO.

9. Souffs, Chooks and Grubs get busted for salary cap breaches.

10. Crush returns to his former optimistic self. OKB1 and DragonSammy are back and well.

Too early to call it a bad year especially before round 1.

Love your positive attitude mate, and again really hope it plays out that way.
It won’t take much for me to be optimistic again, it really won’t but for now I’m being cautious, not feeling good about 2021 at this stage.

Seems possm’s infectious positivity is starting to work wonders in here

The lads on Fox tonight did not rate Hunt as captain material

... as he was too ‘sensitive’ - among other things.

I just say give it your best shot Benny
- and leave nothing on the paddock

as you drive the forwards to the max

 

[Como Connection]

Kerr will be great this year maybe better than Friz and who knows with Macca, let’s give the side a month as Hunt requested to click into a new style.

I'm still not convinced about Kerr, time for him to perform now.

[possm]

If I were coach I would tell Hunt that I would give him time as long as he agreed to have this time without pay. Watch how Hunt would change his mind on this.

Hunt as captain?- it all gets down to the nature/nurture debate- for mine, captains are born-not made. To expect Hunt to evolve overnight from the sort of guy who's introverted, quiet and sensitive to an outgoing, confident, leader of men is a leap of faith I'm not prepared to take. He got the job because there's currently no one else who is experienced (thus eliminating Lomax) and guaranteed a starting and finishing spot in the Dragons line up.

Yes, curious choice Hunt as Captain.

I’ve seen unlikely people excel when given an opportunity but you’re right more nurture than nature and they take time to learn what is natural to others.

Could be a masterstroke by Hook and the club or it could be a spectacular disaster.

Hoping for the masterstroke and I’ll be watching Hunt closer than ever.

 

[SEAT 1A]

I could be wrong and please tell if I'm incorrect.

Why didn't Hunt ground the ball for the first try instead of trying to kick it.
