The Rumours Thread

[BIG RIG]

I wait with baited breath for any sign of change in our roster

But if I wake up to see that we have re-signed someone like Billy Burns ill loose my shit

 

[blacksafake]

Mam?

That would be nice.

 

[Crush]

Incorrect he is actually a MAD Wests Tiger Supporter

Really? He spins a good yarn then, I’ve heard him saying he’s a big dogs fan and has been since the old days where bullfrog, Mortimer etc all used to drink at his pub.
Either way, he seems quite invested in seeing dogs succeed.

I reckon Billy Burns has real potential, he’s been rocks and diamonds thus far but he’s got some footy in him, I’d be happy with re-signing him.

I agree Crush. I’m a fan of some of Currans work but for mine Billy has more potential.

It seems you and I are a minority with this opinion

I get all the cloak and dagger stuff you never stop that.
But the NRL brought out a new rule 1 month? ago about clubs and PMs talking or negotiating with to players etc before 12 months off contract
The big NRL fist will strike if a club is caught
A poster on here said Sua is “gone”.
Now if he / she knows? then it’s public knowledge if true
So I asked how could this be true and public. some club needs investigating
It might come true but it sounds to me ATM journo or social media guesswork just because he was spotted in QLD supposedly buying real estate?

Arthur Laundy is a MAD dogs supporter from way back, don’t know much about the Gordon’s, I don’t think they are fanatical dragons fans though somehow…

Not the St George side

According to the “Spirit of the Red V” book the Gordon’s do have St George links.

Bruce’s wife was a choreographer at the Leagues Club for years. Then when the family had moved to the US and returned, the son Andrew discovered RL and became a St George fan.
Then I guess came the move to Wollongong and WIN.

I agree
I am surprised as Gus raves about him when calling a game of ours about how he never drops a ball why they have not poached him from under our nose?

 

[BLM01]

No it is not.
We need an organising 7, he has previously won a comp under the coach, he won’t break the bank. I think he ticks a lot of boxes.

I get your point but watching Townsend this year.. he is just about done and a No from me

 

[BLM01]

I’m sure the salary cap at Dogs is just fine.
Itll be the TPAs that are getting the contracts across the line, deep pockets the Laundy Group, they’re rapidly expanding.

What about the South Sydney cap
Now if the Wighton deal and steal him from Canberra did not raise a pulse in NRL land.. well nothing will.

x2 and still young ..... (The man with no expression) ......

If the Laundy Group can do it, why can't Mr Gordon? He should also have deep pockets, so deep that he cannot reach the millions as they are out of reach of his short arms.

He's using his short arms to rub coconut oil into himself in the Bahamas, he doesn't give a crap about the Dragons, they are a tax write off to him.

Yeah but the son and daughter are here and involved in WIN.

 

[justadragon]

And if they are so business savvy, what have they done in as far as organising TPA's to match other clubs. Surely they could say to dad, " Hey old fella, cough up because we are not cutting the mustard".

 

[Rocket Rod]

Would everyone here stop thinking that Win Corp is ever going to put their hands in their pockets. Their track record speaks for itself. This is just a toy for them

The trouble is, it is the toy they never play with, they simply have it so others can’t

 

[dragon thomo]

Who ever sold the club to the Gordon's need sacking. The fellow that wanted to buy the club who owned the basket ball team should have been allowed to purchase the club.

I see the potential for sure. Hopefully Flanno can do to him what Bennet did to B Scott.
