Anyone reckon we could get the bro to turn on every club before the new season starts? Any dogs fan willing to bag out their own team in some way?

I will never bag my team but always happy to offer criticism, Dogs need more creativity in the halves, We need to stop giving away so many stupid penalties and I have concerns over Tony Williams coming to the club.

Other than that all is looking good at sunny Belmore.

This is the NRL, you can never get too confident. Little things make big differences. The Dogs might have had all 3 grades win minor premierships last year but the Warriors had all 3 grades in the GF in 2011 and look what happened this year. Most people predicted the Warriors to make the top 4 easy and when Matty Johns came out and said we wouldn't make the eight people called him crazy. In the end we finished closer to the spoon than the top eight.

Granted having Des in the coaches seat is a lot better than who we got stuck with but still, shit happens. What say Barba goes down with a serious injury? Graham's already sitting out half the season and if Barba's not there there's no creativity in that backline apart from Inu when he feels like it. To be honest the halves are duds who were made to look good last year by the forwards doing most of the ball playing. Reynolds is very, very average.

I've got nothing against the Dogs, I'm just saying the rollercoaster can drop pretty fast.

Sheens by a country mile, did well with a Raiders outfit that was miles over the salary cap and chocker block full of internationals. Than got the Tigers over the line when all the quality teams choked or were injury riddled at the back end of the season. The guy has been deadset embarrassing over the past few years with his selections,signings and general outlook on the game. It must be a massive relief to the players he is now gone, I know it is to the supporters

Don't downplay the Tigers premiership. What they did was absolutely incredible. They could have and would have beaten anybody.

Yes anything could happen, for example the eels might quit the nrl before getting another spoon to add to this years.

lockyer might return and lead the broncos to prems, mike tyson might decide to play for the eels and give them some heart, oh and thurston and sbw might quit, run to esl and form a new club.

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN

Tim Sheens.

Can't agree with anyone that says Kearney, he wasn't rated as a coach before anyway. Being tipped to be successful and actually being rated are quite different.
