When you say FB do you mean official club or windowlickers on community type pages

Flano signed him for 3 years

If Lomax is gone and Shane is happy to move Rav on if he has any takers then you have to suspect we have landed at least one excellent outside back.

We can't wave goodbye to Lomax and Rav and then just run around with Feagais and Finau or, eaven help us, Bird. Something is afoot.

The window li ckers . I asked for a source and they sent me an article from mid last year talking about how he had extended bloody hell they are off their tree.

I think we extended him a little while ago, but I suppose things can change to the extent that the Dragons can still tap him on the shoulder and tell him to look elsewhere.

Dragons recruitment and retention update

The Dragons can provide the following update about player recruitment and retention.

I think the 2023 article date tricked a few people (a lot of that is out of date now), I believe we are shopping Ravalawa around now, he does have 2yrs remaining, but pretty sure someone would be willing to pick him up for atleast most of that cash.

Max and Mathew Fegai have really come along, Mathew is showing a lot more speed Than Rava, he is also much more reliable under the ball and defense and max has that centre spot locked in ahead of Bird.
Bird will play 14 imo if that, he wasnt resigned, it was dumb clause in his contract which he activated.
You will more players asked to move on to make way for a couple of signings and some really good Juniors coming through

Its the rub.....

Every smart experienced coach knows that a high performing squad has to extract performance from all categories of the squad to be a true top end team

The young guys play above expectation.

The players that are in that 21-25yrs play beyond expectation and contribute with solid performances but wont play like at $700k player - The Fegai's have done that this season. So to Tui. Cheap in dollars, valuable in a team to function, especially when injuries strike / rep duties.

The old guys at the tail end of their career get fitter and stronger than ever and surge again.

The marque / elite type players set a standard every week that is so consistent that it is the wheels on the car.

There is no magic wand is there. Unless you think are a porn star and your call yourself the magic wand

lol

Would keep Rav over Fegai just look back over the years on his highlights

I am a Rav fan and would like to see him stay with the right attitude.
