WE need 6wins from 6 games to beat last years achievements and make the semis
Otherwise if we do worse than last year we are going BACKWARDS
The BOD took soooo long to get the recruitment manager and CEO on board. Surely they have to assume much of the responsibility for this season. I guess Flanno needs to take responsibility for match selections.

I only hope that management at least replaces the assistant coaches so we can have a fresh start. And if the new recruitment manager can sign us two marquee spine members and one marquee prop, we should be very competitive in 2026.

Management will look at the results thats a fact
11th last year ‘with 11 wins
6 Wins from 21 games and slipping down the ladder fast
lets get real,pathetic results
Selections diabolical
Ilias 3 wins from 7 games with 2 by one point loss but they are still losses and have only lost 2 games in KOE cup since dropped
‘Flano 3 wins from 14 games
Well The BOD have to assume that all the responsibility of these poor results has largely been team selections
Its time to replace the head coach and make a fresh start and then the recruitment manager together with the new coach who can sell the benefits of being coached by him,will have a chance to sign your new marquee players
Otherwise same shit next year

Boards don’t usually hire Recruitment Managers! They may sign off budgets and rubber stamp etc but I think it would fall into the Football Team’s Management Team hierarchy’s responsibility to hire and onboard. Maybe questions should be asked elsewhere ….

Oh, the hypocrisy....Jason Ryles gets praised for not playing Dylan Brown in first grade because he wont be at the club next year, and blooding the 2 halves instead of him who will be there next year. Meanwhile, Flanno gets flamed by certain media people for not playing 2 reserve halves who are not contracted with Dragons next year, over 2 halves who are contracted for next year.

And to Braith.....dirty on Flanno for his client losing hope, ffs. Why are you not dirty on Wayne Bennett who also rejected your client by telling him he was not wanted at Rabbitohs in 2025. As his manager, please tell us how many first grade clubs are queueing up for his signature on a 2026 contract?

It wouldn't be the first time a brilliant player was promoted to first grade at his age. The problem we have at out club is that we do not have people who can make such decisions. We lose too many juniors purely because their talent is not identified and because they are not promoted/extended/locked in.

In the case of Reed, I say let go Ilias, Glover, and have:
Reserve grade
6. LKT
7. Reed - 5 year deal

First Grade
6. Atkinson
7. A marquee halfback (new signing)
Pos , how many games have you seen Reed play ? Not highlight packages?
