Semi radaradra?

[West coast dragon]

on his way home by all reports are we a chance?

No

 

[Dragonsamy]

I wish he wants 800 to 900k the papers say.

 

[jeffdragon]

As I stated we aren't going to get any top players.
Several have been posted for the same result.
ZERO.

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

If Radradra was to sign for the Dragons I’d have more than a semi.

 

[Brutalitops]

Just the thought of Hunt chipping/bombing to Semi's corner, or Norman sending a swift pass out wide sending Semi into clear air makes me sweat

Alas it's a pipe dream

I heard Gould talk about him on the radio recently.
1. He’s happy in France
2. He’s earning $1.4m a season
3. He wants to play WC for Fiji next year

So, I don’t think anyone’s getting him until 2021.

No good for us by the time it gets to Lafia then to Aitken who can't pass , a complete waste of a winger ....

Plus why come to a club who has a slogan of mediocrity is acceptable and will never win the competition under the coach they have for the next two years.

The WC is this year is it not?

 

[Gareth67]

This is going to be a much longer off-season than I previously thought .

 

[Eatons Hill Dragon]

There is no need for Semi and I seriously doubt he would make the 17.
We already have Aitken, Lafai, Periera and Pearson as our starters with Maranta as back up so know need to waste money on a quality player

Um, don’t follow that game mate, just what I heard Gould say a few weeks ago.

I follow it a bit, the Wallabies pumped the ABs last weekend, if they win in Auckland they get the Bledisloe, usually I don’t watch it much but with how the Dragons are going...

 

[muzby]

Could be the Olympics next year that he wants to play in...?

That would make a lot sense, Fiji would be favourites to win the 7s and who wouldn’t want a gold medal in the pool room?

Next Years Starting Backline

I reckon Sailor will end up as a sub, McBellamy made a point of noting that the reason he’s jumped Dufty is because he’s excelled at 4-5 different positions whereas Duft is a one frock pony. I actually think Dufty could be used out of dummy half though tbh, his defence isn’t terrible, it’s just the physics of being one on one with a big unit in open pasture. At 9 he can tackle them before they build up steam.

I think you're right there.
Our backline next year will look like this from McGregor:
1. Lomax
2. Saab
3. Aitken
4. Lafai
5. Rava
6. Norman
7. Hunt
Sailor as the sub backline from the bench.

Centres are our weakness big time.
Without signing anyone at this stage (but i really hope we do) I'd go with:
1. Lomax
2. Saab
3. Rava
4. Lafai
5. Periera
6. Norman
7. Hunt

But as I said, I really hope we are on the hunt for a centre.

Thats a backline worthy of a wooden spoon right there.
