Please fellas, step away from the rabbit hole! There is still some sunlight up here.
Doust is only one board member, the problem rests with the others , what do they do ? if the situation should benefit the club then the other board members should over ride him.Doust is one of the biggest problems at the club ...... Throw in Young as well , they have too much influence on what goes on ......
Agree like I said he has too much influence ...... Knew him personally outside of the club and at club level .....Doust is only one board member, the problem rests with the others , what do they do ? if the situation should benefit the club then the other board members should over ride him.
What is it with him then? Is he a straight out control freak and if things don't go his way he jumps up and down and throws tantrums like a spoilt brat?Agree like I said he has too much influence ...... Knew him personally outside of the club and at club level .....
you are right Dave, if its not embarrassing enough with the performance of our NRL side have a look at the other grades, and guess what we are down the bottom of those ladders as well. This should be a prime time to review the whole club from top down. I'm sure we will have a review and we will hear "as a club we are not happy with our performances" we have now employed a new coach who will fix everything, including recruiting and pathways, followed closely by the players saying we are now set for a big year because its been the hardest pre-season ever !!! And whilst we are at it, our illustrious fine group of men playing the game are all on hundreds of thousands of dollars and will take sheer delight knowing that yet again their season has ended early and they will be jetsetting off to the Bahamas or some nice warm island where they can rub coconut oil into themselves and wont have a worry in the world. There are only a couple that i take my hat off to, Lawrie and probably the Couchmans, the rest have got a lot to answer for, but hey after next week the NRL will just be a dirty word !!!What is it with him then? Is he a straight out control freak and if things don't go his way he jumps up and down and throws tantrums like a spoilt brat?
How can we get rid of these guys? Surely they want to be in charge and be part of a successful club and league team? I really don't understand.
Again I say that this is the opportunity now for the Dragons to get things right and go for the jugular, but no, there are still those hurdles impeding any progress by the sounds of things. If we happen to come last next year, I am definitely giving the Dragons away after following them for over 60 years.
Coach Carr knows, player Benny knows, maybe even Flanno knows, that being part of the Dragons is bloody too hard to handle.
Flanagan will feel the pressure. It will be tough. We will get frustrated over and over again.

You are so right justa in every word. We have heard all of the same bullcrap for many years and its like a needle stuck in the same groove of an old LP going round and round and round playing the same tune with the same words over and over and over. Too bad they haven't updated to the new technology and listen to the hip hop to go with the hip drop.
What will be his assignment. If defense coach then I guess Flanagan has a point. But FF sake what is wrong with bringing in Coops as a consultant with an emphasis on back line defense. Overide Young and Doust as they like nothing more than to cause instability. In fact sack the pair of them.Dean Young
...JDB. The bloke plays his arse off every week. Was there a plan hatched by the do gooders to get rid of him for the remainder of the season.Lawrie and
My apologies bgm , yes he is another that has. There was muttering when he was elected captain, he would have been better than our current one....JDB. The bloke plays his arse off every week. Was there a conspiracy hatched to get rid of him for the remainder of the season.
Not necessary jd. Boy if only we had a couple more like Jack, puts his body on the line every week, is an inspiration to us fans and surely his team mates. Stuff the suits in FO, he is my leader of the great Red V.My apologies bgm
dont forget sua he hits hard and gives his all..Not necessary jd. Boy if only we had a couple more like Jack, puts his body on the line every week, is an inspiration to us fans and surely his team mates. Stuff the suits in FO, he is my leader of the great Red V.
You would have to think the way Lawrie has improved that he would be in the mix as well, anything would be better than the weather man someone who inspires.Not necessary jd. Boy if only we had a couple more like Jack, puts his body on the line every week, is an inspiration to us fans and surely his team mates. Stuff the suits in FO, he is my leader of the great Red V.
He was first on your list. I agree Lawrie is our most improved player. If they wont give the captains badge to Jack then I'd prefer Blocka got it.You would have to think the way Lawrie has improved that he would be in the mix as well, anything would be better than the weather man someone who inspires.
we do have a couple more like jd ....the couchman boys there here for the long term still young and tackleing machines i say one will be captain sooner rather than later .... maybe even next year .Not necessary jd.

The current Board members at the Dragons as from November 2022 are as follows:-I thought Craig Young has resigned from the Board?, isn't this true?
Young had to step down from his role as a St George Illawarra board member due to his letterhead debacle. He is still very much in the background on the St George side and has influence and pull. Especially over the likes of Doust, who heads up a spot on the St George Illawarra board. Young isn't at St George Illawarra, but he is at St George. And his filthy hands are still all over influencing factions of the St George Illawarra board itselfThe current Board members at the Dragons as from November 2022 are as follows:-
I have not seen anything to suggest that Craig Young has returned on the Board but I notice from the Dragons website that the last dot Board member is TBC (to be confirmed). Could this be Craig Young? Does anybody else have any further details?
- Andrew Lancaster (Chairman)
- Craig Osborne
- Graeme Gulloch
- Peter Doust
- Ralph Piggott
- Ben Creagh
- Genevieve Gordon
- Board member TBC
