So when asked about whether we’d go for someone like a Terrell May Solly said we don’t have that sort of money to throw around. There is no rush to fill the last 2 spots we have a good squad. When asked on middle depth being a concern Solly says he thinks next year people will be surprised by the fact our middle depth is fine it’s not a concern for us. Solly also said we will take games away to Perth and Central Coast next year. Our Magic Round game is generally a home game too so I guess that leaves 9 home games left if 2 are at Allianz that’ll mean 7 home games at Accor and the away game v Dogs meaning 8 games at Accor.

I take knowitall solly with a grain of salt, weve lost tom and gagai who were in the top 17, Aj wont be back for at least a third through, he is very optimistic, i hope he is right

With Murray missing to start the year, it seems that Keaon is the likely 13 although Tallis would also be a good fit there, as would Arrow. But it's still unknown whether Keaon will become part of the front row rotation which might be why Solly is saying our middles are better than people think. It might mean Murray slots in at edge when he returns from injury and before that, it might mean Schuster now has a real opportunity to show he's back and can find form with an edge spot opening up with Murray's injury and Keaon almost certain to start the year as a middle if not stay there.

I can see Cam playing a combo edge/middle game no problems at all, moving back and forth and taking as many middle hit ups as he likes before shifting wider out when we're on the attack.

The only way shuster contemplates playing first grade is if he loses 10kg and gets fit,he hasnt played for over a year ,he needs conditioning and attitude adjustments,dont expect to see him in firsts until maybe halfway through the season,i dont have high expectations of him for next year and i dont even think about him as making any contribution

I reckon the answer is R20 is that we don't have nick the trick politis lol

We don't need brown paper bags. We have Wayne and he is legendary at developing no names into names. We can still nab a no name player or two on a train and trial contract or as part of our second tier squad that could eventually bolster our NRL team mid-season.

The preseason is young. Lets wait and see. All I'm saying is, Murray's injury gives him an increased opportunity. Lets see if he can take it. I'm not making any predictions.

Broncs confirm they won't be letting Mam go so that improves the chance of Ilias to Dragons. We just need him to Bradbury his way to an offer from Flanagan and we can save on a big chunk of salary cap that is likely to be wasting away in NSW Cup if he stays.

Need a fullback more than anything
We are fine I think Trell will have a much better year. Had a strong second half of year after injury in 2022 Trell we were out of the 8 we made the prelim that year thanks to Trell.

He does look the fittest I’ve seen since he came to us think he’s lost about 6kg

Dragons are going hard for Atkinson.
