The Rumours Thread

[TheRev]

I feel like there is no point us even talking about who plays what position until trials start and we can pass our expert analysis over the individuals performance.. right now we are going off last years data, but the coaches are there every day seeing their fitness, size, ability and working it all out.. its a fresh start imo.

Flanno also said the trials for them were about building these new combinations.. so it wont be 40 players getting 5 minutes each or anything.

I agree with you but disagree this forum provides “expert” analysis
Leave that to the experts

That was tongue in cheek

Still though there have been many a time where this forum has come up with quite good analysis of all things Dragons, just because we are not listened to doesn't mean we are any less knowledgeable.

You know what gives me the sh#*s, when young people say “just” in a customer service capacity.
Buying a juice, “that’s just $9”
Huh? It’s not JUST $9, it’s $9 fricken dollars for a juice!
Bought a t-shirt the other day, “that’s just $58”

Sorry, not a rumour.

Wouldnt be a 2024 player swap for hunt cause we cant afford to lose him whatsoever.. but could be the dogs or raiders chasing Fifita... .. but never know it might not be Fifita, it could be Brimson... who we would take in a heartbeat.

 

[possm]

Next, there will be rumors of a Fifita/Hunt swap for 2024.

Oh, for a top-level five-eighth to partner Flannagan. Maybe cash for Brimson or maybe Sloan to 6, Bird to left-center, Suli to right-center. Now there's some real change to our 2023 backline.

 

[Gold_Coast Dragon]

Maybe Brimson isn't ok with being a centre and wants to be a 5/8 again.

Raiders would be a chance although they did just sign Hosking so I'm not sure they would be posturing for an immediate release for Fifita. He does have the clause in his contract that he can leave at the end of this year if he's not happy there. Bulldogs I can't see, they've got Kikau and Preston in the second row already. If it is Fifita he'd be a good buy for us if in fact we're even in for him. Wouldn't be shocked completely if it was Brimson either. Possibly Verrills too if he wants a return to Sydney?

I'd take Brimson as well but I think that Hasler will slot him in one of the centre positions and he will kill it there. He has a good swerve and an in/out movement and with open space will be a danger when we play the Titans first up this year.

Yeah Verrills could be the guy.

 

[TheRev]

Verrills could work at our club also.. we must be pressuring every hooker possible for an early release.. we are desperate with only a few weeks remaining to trials.

But yah Brimson is the one I wanted, but I know its a pipe dream..
