Who are you thinking the 2 wingers next year will be?I struggle to see a spot for Rava on the wing next year I think he goes on the bench as a back rower
Yes those 4 words there "according to the media' is translated by many to gospel and we all know what "media" is these daysAgree,
Even on the field they all, Su’a too, join in the celebration of tries etc.
If according to the media their a divided dressing room you’d think they would not have finished the season putting in like they have the last month.
Effort normally hasn’t been a problem, skill & ability has been though.
Certainly not TS first up after some of his defensive resolveWho are you thinking the 2 wingers next year will be?
I thought it was clear but to break it down a little bit to make it easier for you, the fact they're worse without Reynolds in not being a team challenging for a grand final victory tells me letting him go was a mistake. Hope that helpsYes. Your point?

Very proud of the boys' commitment yesterday. A very good way of ending the season and I'm looking forward to seeing what the guys can do next year. Cheers all!
Yes,… heard comments ….that apparently there was major division in the squad, Saints have put the queue in the rack and won’t win another game. Won all 3 and showed commitment till the end! Well done Dragons!Yes those 4 words there "according to the media' is translated by many to gospel and we all know what "media" is these days
The old saying "where there is smoke there is fire" may be a good one but you need to look first who is lighting the fire and who are fanning the flames.
Maybe pick up Staines for a wing spot and Rava into the forwards?Feagai is in the bag you would think, the other one his brother a possibility, Sloan if he bulks up or maybe they buy one. Other than Lomax we have no height in the back line and IMO like Moga Rava lacks speed. He has strength in volumes but IMO since he was suspended a couple of times he has not been the same player.

spazerOur ruck defence is still trash, our players just don't look strong enough to slow things down in the ruck. I actually feel more confident defending our goal line than trying to defend up the field.
On a positive we aren't a bad side. We are on the same tier as raiders imo. We can beat the bottom 8 sides and on our day can potentially upset a couple of the top 8 sides. Still have to develop Hunt and Coric next year but hopefully we'll improve in the middle by then.

Rava is under no pressure to hold his spot until others can catch, tackle, make metres bringing the ball back and score tries over the top of defenders.
Tbh in most occassions (not all) the only way these kids so to speak will be ready for first grade is to play them in 1st grade....how often have we seen some of them sitting on the bench pulling splinters out of their arse and given token minutes in the ones....issue there is their not playing any footy that weekend.... you can prop up the side with journeymen short term but long term that wont get you up the ladder and be a competitive club for years to come....its only been from memory in the last few games weve seen the introduction of more of the younger brigade playing together.....whilst as you rightly point out qld redvee its important we keep developing but in short its not just having a nursery in place its how they are managed down the trackspazer
we have to develop a lot of our juniours in order to get the cap sitting better for a marquee type player For some reason we dont seem to be able to bring them through ready its like we dont put enough into them when they need it most I think we need to look at pathways to develop a plan ( knock off penrith bluprint) that will fully develop the young kids so that by the time they are in reserve grade biding their time they are pretty well ready for first grade . this is where we let ourselves down we havent got the system in place
Hewi, Rava is a beast who we need to bring back kick returns and put us in good field position.I struggle to see a spot for Rava on the wing next year I think he goes on the bench as a back rower
100% Johnno.Well I'm glad that's our season over. I feel less stressed already. I've sent a link for a video of Feagai's try to all the non St George followers I know, with a warning that that's what we'll be doing to their respective sides next year. Time to sit back with a stiff drink and just watch finals footy, without any emotion or care.
