Brilliant FO. Par for the course as we did same with Shane Flanagan who should have been our head coach back in 2020 instead they appointed the horrible Anthony Griffin.

Not possible. Flanagan wasn’t able to be a 1sts head coach at the time.

Wasn’t hard to look like a flyer at the Koori Knockout..some of the lads looked way more built for comfort rather than speed
Sharkies supporters are upset that they may lose Tracey. Especially if he comes to us. A lot of their fans rate him higher than Will Kennedy and believe he will get even better with time on the field.Super League star set for NRL return; Parra eye former Manly centre to bolster depth - Whispers

I reckon he will be a good pick up if we went for him. What say you guys?
Would be a good signing in my opinion. Ready to have a start at fullback, creates real competition in that spot. Plus can cover halves, centre and has even played wing as well. Hopefully we can get it done, and for 2024 rather than 2025Super League star set for NRL return; Parra eye former Manly centre to bolster depth - Whispers

Not only did we tap into our juniors, Gus started 3 Satellite academies, 1 in Dubbo, 1 in Bathurst, 1 in Forbes, he sent conditioning staff from HM and SG Ball regularly to work with these kids and teach them how to be professional athletes, how to prepare, basic skills drills etc, as in all situations like this the cream rises to the top, those kids come to Penrith for camps prior to being contracted to HM, SG Ball or Jersey Flegg if there good enough
That explains why most of the junior clubs listed when the Penrith players picked up their winners rings were not actually from the Penrith junior district area. Just proves what a good scouting system and subsequent development program they have currently. Wish our guys were as good at their jobs. Not denouncing what they have achieved which is remarkable, but i was under the impression that most of their team were born and bred in the Penrith area given we keep on hearing it's the largest junior catchment area in the world for rugby league.
Not sure where you got that from. Edwards is originally from Dorrigo, Yeo from Dubbo, Martin from Temora, Fisher-Harris from New Zealand and Sorensen from Cronulla. The rest of them are all local or thereabouts.
That was this year. He won a comp with Wagga Roos.
I stand to be corrected but it appeared that most of the junior teams listed as the players received their rings were from outside the Penrith junior district. What it also doesn't say is how long they have been part of the junior pathways which i suspect would be from an early age. Anyway, full credit for what they have achieved.
George Rose told media at knockout he would be at the Dragons in 2024
Are you talking about George Rose coming back and needing to put on some KGs? Has he lost weight?
LOL Hes doing just fine in the Fight Game
The infamous '63 GF. If the stories are to believed, Jack Gibson told his wests team, who were raging hot favourites, that they were no chance because "the fix was on". Gibson was an SP bookie who called many of Sydney's "shadey" characters friends. If you listen to Wests old boys, plenty of dubious calls, but we won our 8th in a row and the Gladiators were born. All we need to knowAbout same age. One of my earliest memories is my older brother forcing our way up to the SCG fence, with the rain teeming down, umbrella open for my first live Dragons match, the 1963 GF. We stayed there for the entire game, partially soaked but jubilant after witnessing close up our 8th premiership on the trot.
Always saying Johnny King was tackled; doesn’t appear to be tackled at all when you look at the footage….
Although quite a few of them were from St Marys Saints.
I stand corrected. His exoneration was not until February 2021. Still we should have held onto him instead of appointing the horrible Anthony Griffin.
