In the unlikely event that Mary is told to pack his bags (?) just who would want to take his place , really what decent coach would come anywhere near the Dragons knowing that for any change to occur at the joint ventures will takes years to come about .

I guess that’s why you only have 500 likes.
Because you speak like an apologist from south of thirroul.

You have no f**king idea twat, I don't apologise for the coach, been calling for his sacking for longer than you probably, I support St George Illawarra, having come from the St George side of of the family, I just think you are a tool.

Johnno,

Respectfully disagree with you there mate.
Aside from being a little out of touch ref to coaching, as he has been in recruient lately.

I have met and spoken to him several times, as my company sponsor s (I'll review that soon) and have access to the coaching staff through the coaches forums and other events.

I'll keep is short, he is dumb and they come and has NO technical understanding of the game....couldn't even answer simple questions.

Fair enough - sounds like you have met him much more recently than I have. I certainly don't want him as long term coach, as you say he is out of touch with modern coaching. However based on his coaching record, his recruitment record, and a meeting/discussion many years ago, I don't consider him a moron. He may in fact be the best of a bad lot.

Millward may well be a moron, there's hasn't been a word invented for what Mary is, so I'm quite comfortable with a moron.

GA67, I think Bennett would be herein a heart beat.
I don't think we are too far away.
We have a pretty good roster and with a bit of tweaking and a half decent coach, we can be genuine contenders.
A coach like Madge would also do well for a 3 year window of opportunity.
Someone like Barrett would melt though.
The next coach needs to be proven.
When they are proven, they tend to grow balls and know what's needed to make it happen.

Agree
Let’s get an experienced coach like Madge or Bennett
The last time we had one was ...... Bennett and guess what , we won a premiership

Mate , I certainly agree with you on the what proven skills he has , but would he want to come here now ? I am waiting now to see just what the reaction will be from our new partner now , namely Mr. Gordon himself who would be hell bent to ensure that his WIN corporation new investment with the Dragons is a successful and also profitable one .

This association must leave no stone unturned to ensure they receive maximum return on everything that has been put into the club . They have only one avenue to take in this instance - they must pay Mary out of his final year of his contract and replace him with a most capable coach who can take the Dragons all the way . I do believe that there must be something cooking in the oven even as my nimble old fingers are typing and that we shall hear more on this score very soon .

Well, l didn’t think l could be more upset than l was yesterday but l was genuinely expecting our gutless board to sack McGregor today.

If they were going to do it, should of been today. We don’t need to wait till we have another coach signed up, we just needed to make a statement and rid our club of anymore dispair & fan resentment.

McGregor couldn’t but a drovers dog can get us up for next weeks game and beyond.

Weak senior management is apparent across the board.

Looks like the fans continue to be treated like rubble.

No doubt the Board and Mary will be having crisis talks about how they turn this around. Probably wrapping up about now with no solid ideas. Then they'll have drinks. After a few beers it won't seem so bad. A few more beers and nothing to worry about, the trajectory is up. A few more beers and hey we've got this.

Have just read that Hame Sele, Patrick Herbert and Reuben Garrick have signed with other clubs due to lack of first grade opportunity. Jai Field also wants out due to lack of opportunities and Lomax signed only a 1 year deal as not happy either.
Very sad if True
