Rumours and Stuff

Paul Kent just said on his live blog that Ivan Cleary will coach the Dragons in 2017 with McGregor shifted to his assistant.
I'm sure Mary will be fine with that

This raises an interesting concept.... What if Nathan Cleary was on the market 2 years from now and he was absolutely killing it... Dad Ivan is coaching some other team who are stretched cap wise and in need of a 7.... With coaches not being subject to a salary cap, what would stop Ivan negotiating a top up to his own income at that club with an agreement with his son that the funds from the top up would make its way to Nathan?

And I hope to hell that Norman is locked up at Parra.... Last thing I want to read is that Norman has a change of heart on the Dragons after being told Cleary will be taking over from Mary next year...
Did you recently work on our board?

Depends who we sign and how much Bevan gutherson kaysa and Tepai improve. They could all go from good and solid to excellent. If that happens we can win it.
The fact the current team is not only competing but winning says enough.
It will be a better side next season.

I really don't see Pritchard as anything but a back-up. And in that regard I reckon DeGois is better anyway.

From current team we will lose gordon and robson
We will gain norman and semi .

I wonder how long we'll keep Radradra? He's starting to give me then shits. Either stay or go, merkin.

I imagine we have around 1.5mill to spend or potentially more.
We offered haybe 850k and im sure we still had room for more forwards in budget
Exciting times

How can you judge him on the little cameo he has had. 19 games. That includes a few when he debut under Ricky stuart.
Most have been 20 mins and of that half or more of the times been in the back row.
You could say he has had about 2-3 full games worth of mins at hooker

True. And considering he's playing like a back rower, he's played decently. Can't wait for him to get decent minutes at hooker.
