Not inconceivable actually.

Given Manly’s experience with Barrett, I severely doubt it would employ the services of another inexperienced coach.

On the contrary, SGI have done it with dire consequences.

Not sure dire is the right word, or maybe it is. I did notice that it was Demetriou down in the sheds at half time more often than Bennett this season. Siebold got coach of the year. I'm still not sure whether Barrett was just a shitty coach or outside noise got the better of him.

Lomax was barely back from injury and said himself he was struggling with fitness.

If he avoided injury, he would have played on the wing around the time Nightingale was being moved around.

I doubt that you are ever confused my friend - by the way Sammy , I was wondering whether or not Tariq Simms had sustained rib cartilage damage towards the end of the Broncos game . I saw him clutch at it for a few moments and he looked out of sorts . I reckon he went into the rabbits game injured and had nowhere near the same impact as he had the previous week in the thrashing of the broncs .

He had a needle at half time of south game.
He was a bit but I think that South forwards are much better than broncos in there d and that they stopped our go forward more. If tariq had stayed on and was able to last the game out we would have won. Imo

Although I hate Manly more than any other NRL club, I’d say Barrett’s ability to coach effectively has been undermined by its salary cap dramas.

Then again, if the game’s ruling authority in the country had any balls, it would’ve denied the Sea Eagles an opportunity to compete for competition points this season, and thus awarded the pricks a much deserved initial wooden spoon. Let’s not forget that that club’s blatant cheating affected the make up of the 2017 semi final series.

So now it seems Jarrod Hayne is the next rumour being linked to the Dragons in 2019. Well at least that's a way to get rid of our current coach at the end of next year!

 

[Slippery Morris]

Who would have thought that one of Hayne's dreams was to join Saints. Wow.

No Slippery his recent dream was to become a Saint, so his Manager is looking into it... LOL

Every player manager use Saints to push their players price up. That is why we are linked to everyone. They know how our recruitment system works and every other club knows how the Dragons buy el cheapo reserves or fringies or pay overs for the better ones if they have the cash to splash. Dragons are a player managers bunny...so to speak

I would take Hayne at fullback in an instant.

BRONCO HEADED TO THE GC TITANS

The Gold Coast Titans have signed winger Jordan Kahu to a 3 year deal starting from season 2019 and beyond

 

[Saints Forever]

Perhaps we can send Lafai and Aitken off to Broncos to bolster their side

 

[Old Kogarah Boy 1]

Just reported......Tigers CEO flown out to NZ to sign Maguire.

Another one gone.

Bennett’s choice is being reduced.

 

[Drakon]

Sorry OKB, I think you read that wrong. They met in NZ before the Australia v NZ Test. Maguire is now in England for the England v NZ test series.

Pangai is reportedly signing a one year deal with Brisbane. That would mean that if we could sign Bennett, we could get Pangai too.

Strapping big lad and undoubtedly will be the next Tumolulo (?) . Whomever he signs with after 2019 will be getting a very damaging forward - wil the Dragons be in the race , I certainly hope so Frank .

Bronco's have some great young forwards coming through presently im sure they wouldnt mind if he ends up at the Dragons plus we really owe them one for Tallis who they got in he's prime, time to pay up..

Ayios Yiorgos - right about that , however my beef is more with Tallis for the underhanded way he went about the betrayal of the Dragons . The broncs had plenty of money to throw around at the time and swiped one of our best up and coming players . And don’t forget Mundine a few years later - the idiot was even photographed in a Brisbane jersey after signing his deal and whilst still playing with the Dragons !
