Not to mention their super coach, Wayne Bennett and his ex-Dolphin assistant Benji Marshall.

I think I heard they'd be the richest club in the comp. That's got to be a worry for clubs like us. We've seen what Politis has done at chooks. They too will have their clever ways of luring guys over especially with Wayne. We are struggling as it is. Ay caramba!!

I'm happy with the Woods signing just as long as he is selected in first grade on merit. Let's hope our coaching staff can get him fit and running hard.
I appreciate the sentiment but I'm supressing a laugh reflex.

I just don't get the "second team" mentality.

They're all the enemy imo.

Each to their own I guess...
I'm from England originally, and the idea of having a second team over there is basically like committing treason. I was amazed when I came over here and found out there were some people with second teams.

In saying that, there have been times when having a second team could've been pretty good. 2009 and 2010 aside, it's been a tough gig supporting the dragons. Just don't think I can get my head around having two teams.

Yes I've never understood supporting 2 teams either. From my Grandfather onwards its been Saints/Dragons or no-one.I consider it treason too. Ive even had friends who've changed teams!!. Again for me thats treason. Its Dragons or no-one

Well, I too have supported only Saints since I was a toddler sitting on my grandfather's knee. I am now 67 and don't get to the game that often anymore but I do watch every Saints game on TV. If Redcliffe comes in it would be very easy to go to a game and watch them live. So I will always follow the Saints and they will always be my team, however, when Redcliffe is playing at home, I may just pop down and cheer them on (except of course when they are playing the Saints).

By the way, it is great to see that Soward thinks the Saints will end up 7th in 2022. In the top 8 and always a chance of progressing to the top 4.

Soward is on the payroll and coaching staff so take that with a grain of salt. Love the bloke so don't blame him for knowing where his bread is buttered!
