In my dreams If we could jag Wishart as a 7 and luke metcalfe as a running 6 then we start to have some great attacking options. Both boys surely must be feeling homesick, and can share bird and hunts salaries

I would be absolutely overjoyed if we had both Wishart and Metcalfe in our spine as the halves on top of a very improved Sloan at Fullback and Cook/Liddle completing the spine in Hooker rotation. Then we have Suli and Holmes in the centres Tui and Allen on the wings and hopefully RCG and a couple more new forwards and of course the Couchman boys, Su'a, JDB and LKT etc.This would be a combo
MJ sucks he hates St George, I can't stand his mates, one being an Eel, the other being a Rorter, never watched the show, never will watch the show, in actual fact every TV footy shows have been crap , the best footy show is this forum, very unbias, great analysis when it comes to the real important stuff, very entertaining, a mixture of characters and very understanding when our team fails, over a decade of misery .He was on Matty Johns today, they were trying to bait him into badmouthing us, or that we axed him or something.. he didnt answer a bar of it thankfully..

Very good points Saints supporter. Me thinks that the Dragons should go a poaching themselves and/or start developing our juniors like how the Storm are.While it would be great to have have some our escaped juniors back we shouldn't fall into the trap of paying overs just because they are former SGI juniors that look good in top flight development systems (ie. Storm). What we should be doing is ensuring we don't let talented junior escape in the future. The Storm are experts at identifying raw talent, hiding and developing them in several different teams in the Qld Cup. They seem to do this without the hyping, pressure and glare of the media spotlight. Also their development is not rushed and when they emerge in the Storm team they are almost the finished article.
Bang for your Buck, Ben Hunt is still shit, he has 0 leadership, he crashed this team into an iceberg last Saturday.Until we get two forwards as good or better than Sua, nothing else matters. Nothing. Nobody can excel for a full season behind our pack.
I feel you'd go well in reserve grade with that halves combo. Who does the kicking? Who does the organising? Who gets us out of trouble? Neither of those players will do it. I get people are just over Hunt, but this is not at all the solution.In my dreams If we could jag Wishart as a 7 and luke metcalfe as a running 6 then we start to have some great attacking options.

Tyran Wishart kicked 40/20 last week, that'll do me as a kicker, he's 10 years younger than BH, he'll grow into the kicking role quite nicely.I feel you'd go well in reserve grade with that halves combo.

jahrome hughes was a fullback - I see a similar trajectory with Tyran. With his roots / connections to the club and area, it makes a lotta sense as a recruitTyran Wishart kicked 40/20 last week, that'll do me as a kicker, he's 10 years younger than BH, he'll grow into the kicking role quite nicely.
I see Tyran becoming a better version of Trent Barrett.
Yes that is the problem when players are doing really well especially under the guidance of Bellamy so when they drop out of favour or reach their use by dates etc and end up going elsewhere they are not the same. He has the knack of being able to get his players to play the way Bellamy wants them to as Bellamy is a great studier of the players his recruitment guy gets him. Bellamy can identify the problems his players might have in the way they do things in all aspects of attack and defence - defence being a real big thing for him of the players and he gets them to work hard on their deficiencies. That's why he swears and curses in the coaches box when he sees some players make unforced errors.How much money would it take to get Wishart here, and would he want to come. I suppose like all other players what are his priorities in his career. My only concern is when we talk about these players, the fact they have very good players around them makes them look good. We dont have those very good players, so mostly the hard yards would have to be done by him. Are we expecting too much from a young fellow to lead this Dragons side around, would we burn him completely, the Dragons are renown for being coach killers but also for sending players careers into oblivion.
