He should be gone now, how much more spin and propaganda does the club think the supporters will swallow?
I don't know where all these ideas of 5 or 6 weeks and then off come from. Our club does not publicise any of their in-house decisions. It's all bullshit and rumours.
I can tell you from inside the club, that they are not sitting idle waiting for Price to succeed/fail, they have talked to other candidates.
Kevin walters!!
I see it this way, If the Dragons don't win games and make the top eight. Then the NRL will suffer more than us fans, with poor crowd attendance, low merchandize sales, bad TV ratings.
It is up to the NRL to make sure the Dragons perform well in 2014 or demand that Price is sacked!
Price is a fake!!!
Could you honestly see Kevin Walters coaching our club?
Why not, he's spent the last couple of years as Bellamys assistant improving the skills of Widdop at 5/8. If Widdop is our main playmaker and possibly future captain, then why not renew this Walters/Widdop partnership using all the expertise of a successful Storm structure. Also Walters has been appointed as an Assistant to Meninga for QLD Origin with the view to succeed Big Mal. He must have some ability and credibility to warrant this position. Can you seriously see our current 1/2 price coach ever achieving this level. It just could be a coach & captain combination that has plans and structures to build the team around.
I am not suggesting anything about is coaching skills and in fact think he would be a good choice. I am more suggesting his previous playing history and I see him more likely going to the Broncos. Could you imagine say Hornby coaching for the Broncos?
And as for the Mal comment, Price could have succeeded with the current QLD squad and do you remember Mals coaching record with the Raiders? You don't need that much cred.

Price won't be extended, we all know that. It would take a premiership to stop his replacement at the end of the year. Hopefully Doust goes with him and the coach we recruit gets the full support required of the job and gets to select his own assistants etc.
As for Hornby I honestly don't think it would be such a bad thing for Hornby to leave the club and get some experience under some different coaches. He could be a great coach as I believe Bennett stated. But then again, he might not be such a good judge himself.
Hornby and Young will be great coaches, both in their own right and as a team. I'll bet that Dragons NYC do very well this year. But none of them should be dragons coach until all the starting 13 from their last year have moved on - ie Creagh, Hunt, Moz, Flo. Any experience outside of the club is a bonus.
No, I am pretty sure we will suffer the most.
