Are the Dragons the dumbest team in the comp?

Being the "Perth" Dragons would eliminate any reference to St George and Illawarra. How will all of the juniors in the south coast and St George area be divided up? I'd say not many would venture to Perth, the Perth Dragons would need to develop the local players, the Red V won't be represented as it should. I would give the game away completely if that happened.

I was born in the St George Hospital and lived in Hurstville for a time and I will not deviate from following the Red V because of that.

I know that Perth is crying out for a team there and the Dragons have a lot of appeal there but it just won't be the same.
DD there's one thing that the JV has protected us from, and that is relocating again.

Sorry, Dragonslayer has corrected me and said that there is the West Coast Pirates ready and wanting to be a part of the NRL so yes, you are right Denis, not likely that the JV will be relocating.

Just on a different note concerning the "Big Brother". This Phil Gould and Trent Barrett thing that's going on at the moment is like some other club out west during the Hook/Gould period.

Gould takes control as the Big Boy and Barrett sucks his thumb as the Little Boy.

I'm hedging my bet that Barrett will be on the outer and the Bulldogs go hard in getting Cameron Ciraldo as the Head Coach at the Bulldogs.
maybe we could get Barrett back to coach our ressies

are you saying there is still bad blood there, he would have to be better than what we have
Yes, I still do. Nathan Brown left an indelible mark on his cheek in 2003 during the three-way jab, jab, slap routine involving Barrett, Lance Thompson and Brett Firman.

After Barrett left us in 2006, I think he broke all ties with the Dragons, played for the Warriors and then Cronulla.

I don't rate him as a head coach - didn't really do much at Manly and not much chop at the Dogs so far.

I could not believe what he done that day to Barrett , to slap the face of one of your own players in full view of everyone done irreparable damage to the team not to mention the player himself .

its a funny situation though because i have never heard either Brown or Barrett talk about it even after so many years. i would imagine that brown has well and truly moved on maybe not Barrett though,

A terrible thing. Brown has not lived it down I'm sure and the players involved would have been so embarrassed as well as the team. A crying shame that it was the Dragons. Brown's emotions just got the better of him at the expense of the three guys and the club and we were the laughing stock of the league I guess. Thank goodness we got Bennett in to change our direction for a few years. But the years after him keep on regurgitating in me.

It is water under the bridge and both men have grown and matured and doing what they love to do now. Let bygones be bygones - but friendships might be a totally different story.

Seriously I’ve never seen a dumber team than this group. A few mates we got together and played the drinking shots game ever time these morons dropped the ball or gave away a stupid penalty. We polished off two bottle of scotch.
by the end of the game we were angry but just couldn’t stop laughing at these pathetic imposter footballers.
They would have to be the dumbest team in the comp, and Hook had the audacity to say they play well.

Cam McInnes made the wisest decision to leave us and go to the Sharks. He is literally laughing. Cronulla v Dragons no comparison I'm afraid.

They have the right coaches, the right ground, the right players - everything right and will improve as time goes on.

We will be left at the starting post.

As Possm says, what a mess.
