Please Mary replace Norman with Clune.
No he has taken up the Alfy Langer role at the Broncos where he pumps out 80 min on the field with no physical involvement
I was told he was one of the best trainers during the off season, and he was looking good for a regular starting position. Staff have a high opinion of Lawrie
Unfortunately our halves are the biggest problems - I look at the combination of Brown and Moses at The Eels and it’s daylight between our pairing and there’s.. so much indecision- so much lack of initiative.. like it’s really amateur hr.. and I really like both players but they are terrible.. I think Clune and to a degree Sailor would be afresh pairing . I still feel hunt at 9 and Mciness to lock would be the moves to make this team click into some sort of gear..
Need to add a few more bubbles that burst
Not always especially in your case as you are irrelevant regardless.
Sorry, but what?
Under-fire Paul McGregor admits Dragons ‘looked like strangers’ in Warriors shutout

Paul McGregor has brushed off conjecture over his own future, but called out his players following a disappointing 18-0 shutout against the Warriors.
The Dragons struggled with their kicking game and failed to pressure a Warriors side that was weakened by a number of injuries to key forwards.
“It (my future) has been raised consistently,” McGregor admitted.
“I’m three games into a two-year contract. I’ve got good staff. I’ve made a lot of changes. I’ve got good people around me.
“I’ve got a football team that I believe in. We’ve just got to go out and play well.”
However McGregor admitted his side were not up to scratch when it came to the effort areas and lacked cohesion at Central Coast Stadium.
“Attitude is a by-product of belief and today at times they looked like strangers out there,” McGregor said.
“We didn’t do anything at speed and a couple of the tries they scored needed to be defended and they weren't. Your defence is all about your attitude.
“We were on the backfoot most of the day.
“There is no secrets here we have to be better.
“Credit to the opposition, but that is no excuse for us. We needed to beat them and we didn’t.”
McGregor said he would wait to review the match, but forecast potential changes given the disappointing display from the team who are now 0-3.
“There is no reserve grade game so how do the players in waiting get an opportunity? And that’s through players not performing on game day,” McGregor said.
“If we feel the right adjustment to the team needs to be done then there will be changes. If we don’t then we won’t. But it will certainly be a discussion point early in the week.”
McGregor admitted his side were out-enthused by the Warriors, who completed an amazing 45 from 47 sets.
“It’s got to come from within,” McGregor said.
“Belief is a by-product of success too and we’ve lost a few games and we are coming off not a great year, so we’ve got to find that.
“Passion is getting the players excited. It is being ready for the contest. It is about being in the moment and going after it, so that comes down to the individual.
“It is a 20 week competition and each week eats away pretty quickly.
“It is about performing now and certainly not thinking you can catch it up later because it is not there and today wasn’t good enough.”

It's no fluke Norman has been playing for teams that are at the bottom of the ladder for years...
Stating the obvious doesn't help our cause McGregor.Under-fire Paul McGregor admits Dragons ‘looked like strangers’ in Warriors shutout
