Rumours and Stuff

[JokerEel]

Are we that far off with moses, brown, gutho, Paulo and RCG? Maybe a bit cheaper. That schuster deal looks terrible though.

We are not far off we are far ahead with our players compared to those plodders....

 

[Avenger]

And people think that Moses and Gutho were bad when negotiating their extensions. Ben Hunt is a petulant tool.

‘Flanno is digging his heels in’: Hunt still wants out, but concedes he’ll be ‘heading back to Dragons for pre-season’

Ben Hunt would still love to return home to Queensland as the Dragons skipper reflected on the toughest two months of his career.

[the phantom menace]

Would fit right in with our selfish LNP-voting lot - I hope we're making an offer

 

[TheRam]

Pass Watched him a few times and at 24 not sure you could sign him up and develop him...

Probably right, but is still better then anyone we have in NSW cup level at the moment.

So instead of cutting the coard the Dragons want to drag this out for atleast another year... Yeah that's going to work out well

Well we don't know what we have for next year..

He isn't better than Cini and I don't think Cini will play first grade for us.

If we sign Smith and Alomoti that already bolsters our Cup side with Supersimmo going back to cup.

Hunt is a grade A tosser but he still put in for the Dragons at the end of the year because he wants to play rep footy. Will be the same next year too. He needs to play good footy to get picked for qld and Dragons know it. They are calling hunt’s bluff. Hunt should never have signed the big money long term deal. Saints are just honouring the contract . Fuvk him.

Agree he is a good player but you don't want a player at your club who has publicly said he doesn't want to be there.
It does nothing for your team culturally plus you will then need to find a replacement for him in a year or so.

Unfortunately for the Dragons things will get worse before they get better.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah we have brought this guy up before. We don't recruit potential like that, what do you take us for a development club?

Ask pou, resources son, resources, Plodding is the way for us.

And the jar of KY-Jel starts to turn.

We would definitely need huge resources to sign a 24-year-old reserve grader from the team that ran 15th

They let Sullivam go. To late now for Hunt

Where did he end up the Tigers?

Dragons need to rebuild not start a rebuild with player who do t want to be there...

He isnt a marquee signing. He would be a cheap gamble from a weak club where a lot of players are unhappy and looking for an out.

Agreed, there wouldn't be a lot of demand for him. He certainly carves up in reserve grade though, so who knows if he can be polished into a first grader. On the upside he's a winger, which we need.

And a centre....which we need even more. Unconvinced by Superman.

He is good enough. I think between Simonsson and Russell we have that second centre spot covered.

 

[the phantom menace]

...until someone gets injured/suspended.

 

[Jake the snake]

To think people are happy with the quality of player such as Simmonson in our team just shows how low our expectations of a quality player have become. Average and solid should Not be good enough.

Our management have excelled in recruiting utter shit. They need to go. They have NFI.

He is NSW cup quality at best and maybe playing 2-5 games a year in the NRL as cover.

 

[Soto]

For wing and centre spots we should be targeting Samuel Stonestreet, Kayal Iro, Isaiah Tass, Isaac Thompson, Justin Olam, Reimis Smith, Blake Wilson.
Jag 2 of these and big improvement on overall quality in outside backs.
Would also chase Kaio Weekes as can play in halves, fullback and hooker and very quick.
2 or 3 quality signings in the backs and we will be very good next year.
I can't see us having 23 weeks suspensions, terrible injury toll and horrible draw...
Another smokey is Corey Paix...looks out of favour at Broncos and could be a good starting 9 or backup..would keep the pressure on Lussick and Hands..

 

[hineyrulz]

Paix is talented but a massive liability in defence.
