Agree with all else but our Jersey Flegg side made it two weeks into the finals. So some hope for the future with the side producing a handful of promising players. Like the other grades, the lack of a big powerful pack and sub finals standard defense was our achilles heel.
Agree, it just goes to show though across the board we have no real strength in the grades, KOE especially, where we had a sub standard coach , that team put no pressure on the NRL squad and if you took a couple of players out of it here and there it would perform like a busted arse. What happened to our promising forwards that we heard about early in the year where have they disappeared to ??? I see the Broncs are having a massive cleanout , standyby for our mob to pick them up as bargain buys.
Better still, sack hook now this gets rid of one cluase and possibly gives Hunt a reason to ask for a release.
If the truth be told and in my opinion, the young ones at our club have become disillusioned and just not happy with the make up and direction the club is heading. Players like Sloan and Sullivan are not happy and likewise a band of other brothers in the club can see that our club is nowhere near being where they thought it would be.
Twinkletoes. Who are Ryan Webb, Ben Haran and Shane Flanagan? I don't recall these people. Do they have anything to do with the Dragons?
They are people who use the Dragons as a stepping stone to something else, got to give it to Brian Johnston when he got out when he did, he must have known what was coming over the horizon.
Exactly. It's very simple IMO: Listen Hunty, $750 for a 2 year extension - playing 9 from 2023 onwards. If you don't like either of these requirements, look elsewhere. Sorry mate, what did you say? Why? Well, firstly we've already paid you top dollar for years and got nothing much in return; secondly, we've already got a bloody great little halfback whose got a great combination with our 6, unlike yourself, so if you stay at 7 you're messing up our plans for several other guys we value very highly, and thirdly, your old mate Macca's rooted and isn't going to be playing 1st grade next year. What's that?.. Hook wont like it. Hahahaha. Good one! Well he can fk off too! We've got other guys who can coach - probably better than him anyway. By the way, we need young forwards, not aging halfbacks, so the squillions you've been paid will come in very handy for us.
I think he knew what was around the corner justa and he is fortunate to have left when he did. I don't know when Webb's contract is up. He might be wanting to do the same if he can land a job at a well run establishment elsewhere not including another leagues club.
Apparently there was some mention of Griffin’s future in the talks by Hunt and his agent .
Yep it's easy as you say , play the year out at 9 swapping with Sully until he settles in ..... Don't forget Hunt tried to have Hook stay as part of his contract talks , and pay big money to stay on ..... He had 1 good year so far , what if he doesn't aim up if signed on , pressure on him that's all I see ..... let him go .....
Would they be interested in a nearly 76 year old bugger with poor English and computer skills and raggedly presentation to boot?
sorry, to young mate
Is that the same guy who said McGregor’s inept coaching scored a pass mark?
