You want to be Flanno? Or you want him to be you?No but unfortunately Flano isn’t me
You sure are one massive Flanno fan mate.
Good on you. I’m sure Flanno would flattered by how big a fan /weirdo you are.

Gutherson said he was looking forward to getting started.
"I feel really excited and honoured to be able to come here and put this jersey on and have that badge on my chest," Gutherson said.
"The rich history that this club has is second to none... The direction the club went in this year and where Flano and the staff are taking the club is something I want to be a part of.
“I think I can offer a lot to where we're trying to go over the next few years. I'm looking forward to the challenge and what lies ahead."
DDHey Dungay,
Any mail or thoughts on who those 2 announcements could be??
Mail about Atkinson is fairly strong down here today.
Lodge has a chequered past on and off the field but when he is on he can bend opposition defence lines and players don’t want to run at him. If Flanno could get him to buy in on the Dragons rebuild he would be a great buy.DD
Atkinson is firming by the Day even though Wishart was preferred by most because of family ties to the Club
The Sharks have a real squeeze on with so many contracts on the line
They have resigned 3 this week but no Atkinson , and have some cracking juniors snapping at the heels , who they want to keep
Flanno is patiently biding his time waiting for Dominos to fall at , at least 4 Clubs , and others who are trying to fit BH in
The news this week re May came right out of the blue , so that has stalled the interest in a few
May would be an amazing GET as would Hetherington from the Broncs , whose future still isnt settled
Lodge was all but done , but not nothing announced
Hoping having a real dig at MAY ...
One of the few that CAN afford him
I've heard that Sloan won't object to a move to the wing to accommodate Gutho at fullback.With Gutho, I think Sloan will move to the wing and may at times (especially attack) switch places with Gutho. In time Sloan might learn from Gutho how to manage defensive lines. Gutho can also cover 5/8 should there be a problem at halves. We now need a Middle and a half.
you can have Elvis ill have the other one.Luke Bailey Gold Coast
My favourite Elvis movie and what a spunk Anne Margaret was/is says I as I sit here in my room in Vegas.
Flanno would have shared his plans with Sloan, he has so much potential but needs someone to educate him on fullback play. Who better than Gutho, Sloan is still young & will get the best education possible now. A win win if Sloan is happy with the transition. He may also develop into a great winger over time.I've heard that Sloan won't object to a move to the wing to accommodate Gutho at fullback.
hope your right dave, would love to see sloan reach his full potential in the big red v only.I've heard that Sloan won't object to a move to the wing to accommodate Gutho at fullback.
Invisible ink?Has anyone criticised the Dragons for the type of pen Gutho was using to sign the contract yet?
I bet he will! It’s that or reserve grade!I've heard that Sloan won't object to a move to the wing to accommodate Gutho at fullback.
you know what people, I feel pretty bloody good today, and for a couple of reasons.
1. I heard Gutho say today how honoured he was to be at the club
2. Cookie telling Illias how great it would be at the Dragons and he would love it there
Now coming off 2 flogs that couldn't wait to leave the club to become winners, well this makes a Dragons fan believe again when you hear comments like that. Flanno and the Dragons will always hold their head up high in the way they treated Hunt and Lomax and we have nothing to be ashamed of. Moreso we should feel well and truly ripped off. I really feel that today was quite a significant move for our future on and off the field. No longer will I need to see or hear our famous captain whinge about everything and being totally un-inspirational, nor Lomax complaining about what he didn't get or where he wanted to play. Slowly but surely today there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Sounds like we will need him on the wing David.I've heard that Sloan won't object to a move to the wing to accommodate Gutho at fullback.
Corey Allen to be one winger.Sounds like we will need him on the wing David.
Christian T and Sione F still restricted to light training duties due to ongoing hamstring issues.
The pursuit of JAC also seems to have stalled.
We will be glàd we kept him.Corey Allen to be one winger.
It's great to laugh mate but never !!!!!!! Spill Scotch or BourbonFunny you say that mate. My missus said to me about an hour ago " you seem in a good mood today " , to which i said " we just signed King Gutho ".
Long story short, with a clarification of what has transpired she says.. " You know you're over 60 now, right ?"
I spilled my scotch in laughter. No lie.
Ha Ha it does mate...just like old timeshave you guys noticed it always seems to happen on a Friday.
