REMINDER OF MCGREGOR'S CONTRACT EXTENSION ANNOUNCEMENT

[Dennis Papaioannou]

Here are the words of our CEO Brian Johnston as he announced Paul McGregor's extension 7 games ago.
The last endorsement by the Chairman highlights the real problem that we have.

"Dragons chief executive Brian Johnston said the decision to re-sign McGregor was one made on the basis of several factors.

"Paul's retention has come down to more than just the football played on the field," Johnston said. "Paul is a values-driven, team-first individual who is at the forefront of personal development for both he and his players.

"A testament of this is the number of Dragons who have achieved higher representative honours and those to have successfully debuted under Paul's tutelage, as well as the club's improved results in recent seasons.

"Paul's emotional intelligence and man management attributes are key to him being well-respected throughout the playing group and the club's staff in its entirety, which is another crucial reason for his extension."

Dragons chairman Andrew Gordon said the board were pleased to see McGregor recommit to the Red V."

Just goes to show the deep whole our club is in, this club is not going to be a force for years to come.
Look at Garrick in today’s game, wonder what turned him around to be a first grade player.
I expect we will a host of our juniors leaving us, why would they stay.

I have a sick feeling all week...that our club is actually dying altogether and I think it was a deliberate Illawarra COUP to erase St George sadly

What gets me is, sure it seems Mary has SOME skills regarding the emotional side of connecting with players, which I do think is important in coaching. But so what? That's literally all he offers. He can offer that as an assistant coach. He can offer that as a bloody water boy.

You don't appoint him head coach based on just that

Here it is in a nutshell from the new CEO

The scary thing with McGregor as coach we don't know where rock bottom is. Maybe not this year but under his guidance we could end up with the wooden spoon in 2020 or 2021. Another scary thought is if McGregor does one day go will this board appoint another untried old boy as coach. Till this old boy culture is done away with we will struggle to make an impact in the NRL.

SPEW! "Paul is a values driven" WTF??
We'll he's certainly driving our team into the ground in a backwards direction.
The Board & CEO will be looking for everything and anything as excuses for their piss poor decision making. Us fans will see it for the truth.....unjustified & a foolish error!

They will. Never erase Bst George from the name.If they do they lose at least 75%of all supporter base.

Thanks I hate this

 

[Mr Angry]

This was a fantastic announcement for 15 clubs.

I myself particularly love the emotional intelligence of having a specialist fullback on the bench.

Those were the days.
