The Rumours Thread

[justadragon]

Rumour is Taumalolo is done with Cowboys. Can we get him before Bennett does?

No Chance, that would have Bennett's DNA all over it

 

[justadragon]

I'm already, starting to think about what next weeks press conference is going to be about, regardless if we win or lose,

 

[Puff]

Shane Flanagan anyone?

 

[Jbjbjb40]

Shane Flanagan anyone?

No thanks. I don’t think he should be involved at all. Sounds like he will end up at tiger’s with his son. I don’t trust the guy. Especially in recruitment

griffin is not going to get sacked no matter what you see in the media. move on. Everyone knows deep down we have had a tough draw. people are using the poor results to push their agenda of hate against hook. can't imagine how much worse it would be if we didn't announce his resigning at the start of the year.

It’s not a rumour but a fact
We need to move the following players out the door
Macca - Father Time has caught up with him
Simms - Great player but …
Ford
Kerr
Alvaro
Farmer
Skating on thin ice - Lawrie

Yes and then bite the bullet:
Ponga
Matt Feagai
Suli - run straight and set up your winger
Lomax - catch the ball and hold it when your tackled
Ravalawa
Bird
Amone
Molo
Hunt
Haas
Burnss
Su'A
De Belin

3 marquee players 3m our of a 10m cap:
Ponga
Haas
Hunt for 1 year

WOW ! That is almost unbelievable , in as much as they allowed the ‘ maestro ‘ to reign for donkey bluudy years before they acted .

The Flannigan's are on the radar.

Shane Flanagan anyone?

Yes. I dont buy for one second he was brought in to look after recruitment
The timing was suspicious
They only extended Hook so early just for player / manager club stability to sign players
and the SMH recent article.. again timely after a below average start

Not saying they were planning to get rid of Hook yet but Flanno is their insurance policy
If anything he was brought in to look at what is going on, the job title...well, a smoke screen
They were not sold on Hook yet but rightly so after last year ending and player disregard (re BBQ),
they wanted to wait to see what he dished out this year
I was and still am prepared to give Hook a chance with on field performing based on what he took over.
But like our club should be, I am starting to be concerned and he will have to turn things around reasonably quickly otherwise I will jump on the HOOK HOOK bus

Fair and not even hard . predict Simms to retire at end of season due to lack of offers.

Simms has signed with the Storm?

 

[BLM01]

Triple M is reporting that the Dragons will consider sacking Anthony Griffin if performances do not improve due to his very low payout

Josh McGuire, Daniel Alvaro , Poasa Fa’amusili and Jackson Ford will reportedly not be re-signed

And Jack Bird will reportedly have his contract offer pulled after he did not sign by deadline

Hmm. You will find Bird has re-signed
Just not announced yet

 

[Willow]

Simms has signed with the Storm?

Eric can do better.

Finally got the nerve to watch the Souths game and am starting to realise how many Dragons fans are panicking.
All this talk of paying out Griffin is premature and driven by Gould supporting Dragon hating media....and many Saints supporters are feeding the fire.
Did anyone really think we would have won more than 2 games at this stage of the season? Really?

I understand we capitulated badly to the sharks and were smashed in the 2nd half against Parra, but we have had some good signs....
* We led for most of the game against the Warriors before winning by 14.
* We came close to beating the premiers and kept them scoreless in the 2nd half.
* We stayed with Parra in the 1st half.
* Although clearly not as good as Souths, Dragons didn't throw in the towel and showed they can hold them out even though they had far more opportunities to attack in our red zone.

A little patience will serve us far better than destabilising our tem with a caretaker coach and make us even more on the nose with potential signings.

I didn’t think we would have won many. The reason for that is our roster. And who is to blame for our roster and their performance. Everyone. If I could sack the lot I would, problem is, it’s the chicken before the egg argument. Who will do the sacking if they should all be sacked.

The farce of a members voting situation at our club needs to change. Because this shit has to stop. And with no voice as a paid member there is no point. As a result I and on the verge of f**king this sinking ship off because of the situation and the inability to do shit about it. Its like a dictatorship that we all support, and say give it time. We have won 1 comp in 40 years. How much time do you want to show you something is wrong!

It’s the same shit every year

Spot on with your comments. This CLUB is a disgrace.
These PARASITES running our club, should be" burned"at the stake.
In particular the GORDON'S
what in hell's have these schisters done for STGI, EXCEPT under pay them for their 49%. Have not contributed one thing to the club.
If this fraudulent behaviour happened in the outside business world the perpetrators would be before the courts. The whole place stinks to the high heavens.
Mismanagement & dicey deals rule at this once PROUD STGEORGE CLUB.

The same commentators that were lauding the 'great recruitment' after we won the CS and won in round 1 are the ones writing this. Quality journalism. Must be a slow news day.
