The Rumours Thread

Sadly there is little improvement in cattle at the Dragons.

If we get 2-3 critical injuries in 2025 - we are toast.

You ‘ orrible beggar ! I need to hide the straw broom from her when she is in a foul mood , I am blamed for just about everything as it is . If she ever got her hands on your little gift she would give me a good thrashing .

the young lady deserves a little payback, plus my old girl can't find her length of 2x4 anywhere.

Hahaha what a croc.

As it stands I would have
1. Sloan
2. Tui
3. Suli
4. Holmes
5. Finau
6. KF
7. (c)unt
8. Molo
9. Cook
10. De Belin
11 Luc
12. Sua
13. T. Couch
14. Liddle
15. Sele
16. R couch
17. Fifita/LPT (little minutes like BMM was used)

Interested what people see as Corey Allan’s role. If Gutherson a non event then perhaps the backup for Sloan. Otherwise don’t see him as a 14 given we now have two 9’s in Cook and Lids.

Corey Allen played wing and centres for the Roosters and played particularly well in the centres. In the losing Semi in 2023 against the Storm, he was probably their best that night.

Well I have discovered over the years that it’s best to allow them to think that they are in control , just as long as I control the dollars and cents .

Centre, wing, fullback. Only 25 y.o.. There is not much video on him and the stats on his dimensions are inconsistent between sites but he is a fair size, and what video I have seen looks good.He has played finals for two clubs and SOO fullback for a winning side. Only one major jnjury. 63 first grade games. He looked good in pre-season before he was injured and it sounded like he was Flanno's first choice for fullback.

I am optimistic that he will be a good backup and put pressure on fullback and wing.

Fair dinkum what idiot at Fox wrote this garbage?? Hilariously bad.

They must be bored these journalists. We have a whole off season to get through

League great reveals 'risk' in potential Hunt move​

MSN

Broncos would have been all over him if Walters was still there. They still may be interested and move Reynolds on

 

[Gardenia]

No use jumping to conclusions. As BLM01 has said, nothing can be confirmed until 1 Nov and then there is the 10 day cooling off if applicable. Some players have been approached by Flanno and maybe his "aides" but that is all that can be done I suppose until that crucial date.

I guess now that Flanno has started talks with both JAC and Gutho, it will get things rolling and as soon as 1 Nov arrives, it will be pen to paper. So timing is the thing.

Sounds good. Only thing is these Managers are quite troublesome. Who will most likely want to test value on the open market and generally play games.

A club would gave to have spots open for them. Who else is looking for a fullback and winger for 2025? I am guessing we gave a good hand here.

This guy has to be joking. In what universe would Flanno Pick Ravawala ( hasnt he been told he is free to go?). He has forgotten Corey Allen and seriously Lawrie at Lock?

Shut up Corey.
We’re trying to sell him.

I know whom I would prefer of the two and his initials are A. R. , but I am sure that that Maguire had a chat to him only last week to give him an assurance that he is a big part of the the Broncos plans for next season - damn shame .

 

[mattw5]

I am not expecting much from Allan coming off a long term injury he will only get an opportunity if there are injuries I feel.

So I take it Ethel has not and will not see this post.

Good point JJ, yep I take it all back, " Hunt is the BEST HB the Dragons have ever had" please buy him !!!

Honestly I dont suggest even reading the media predicting teams.. they have NFI.. tbh even listening to Bloke in a bar talk about our season.. these guys r pretty switched on, but they still arent close enough to really see whats happening.. for example they think Lawrie not playing is a Flanno change of direction.. even these guys who analyse for a living.. theyre analysing 17 teams.. and just not close enough to really get whos performing, which jrs will come thru etc.

On top of that, there will be atleast 4 more changes between now and kickoff.. possibly more.. cant really predict teams till next year.
