Wishful thinking.. Haas wouldn't come to the dragons for any less then 2m.. Galvin won't come to the dragons who are hardly any better then the Tigers.. Noone wants to come here and I don't blame them. Watching the Gutho, Cook and Val segment with fletch and hindy was honestly sad viewing. They all pretty much said the only reason the come here was because of the money and nothing else, sad reality is we aren't a team players want to sign with unless they have no other offers close to our dollar figure. Thank god we have some juniors coming through but even then we will struggle to sell them the dream we are nowhere near where we should be. Eels will be ahead of us once they get there next bye and they beat us. Ryles > Flanno for mine absolute night and day.
Great post.
Yes the Eels played a great game last night, really hammered manly and without Moses and Lomax.
They lost a few young kids over the last year or two but rather than mope around or replace them with some has been, they brought in some great young players that other clubs didn't want or couldn't find room for, such as Iongi, Kautoga and Papalii. Having Brownie their helps as he has always been great at recruiting young kids with huge potential and persisting with them/developing them.
Our Druggo Man has brought some through out of necessity and I'll wait and see how long they're around for until he discards them, he certainly doesn't have the patience for it.
You can see the Eels are actually playing a great style of footy that Ryles is coaching upon them and that's how you know a coach is having an impact on the team.
Since Flanagan got here it's the same old inconsistent side that has been trotting out the same shit for the last 14 years or so.
