So if Flano leaves, and Loko gets some game time, high chance he stays?

And if Flanno and Young leave, all will be OK in 2027.

thats sweet, sweet music to my ears

Just stating Loko is cool with Young and I’d say most of the younger brigade too. He’s not my preferred coach as I’d prefer Hornby. Young would have no problem flicking Flano jr to Reggie’s.

I feel like any coach would be happy to do that. But again, not all problems would be solved by having a new coach - football department and board needs a clearout as we know

 

[redV06]

Removing Flano and Haran are the first 2 things that just must happen. It’ll settle the playing group. They are all off the coach and his son. It’s worse than you could imagine.

This almighty disaster has been 10 years in the making and now we are seeing the what could possibly be the nail bed for the dragons… poor leadership and accountability!!!! I’m over it!!!

 

[redV06]

A good Football Manager (not Haran) would fill any void in communication or unrest in a playing group. There lies the biggest problem in our dressing room for the past decade, a non existent Football Manager.

Bellamy is great but he became the best because he has Ponissi by his side. He just brings everything together.

Thanks for the info mate. But is this insider info or just theorising?

 

[InFlannoWeTrust]

A lot coming through. And we’re worried about Loko leaving. Yes , decent but kids these days need to bide their time.

Add in Rokko Walker who we brought over from NZ Union

add in the two cornelius brothers from Penrith.

I find those who grew in in our colours bleed it.

those like Loko etc will ALWAYS have a. Desire to go home

Rubbish take like usual you're looking to deflect blame away from your man in every situation possible.

The key difference here is that these kids are now coming through Harold Matthews/SG Ball/Jersey Flegg. Loko has been there done that in our system already, he played 10 first grade games last year and is now being held back by crap players such as Lawrie, Guler, Kerr and Sele.

Loko has every right to call this and to be disgruntled at how he is being treated by Flanagan.

Back in your box apologist.

I don't understand why the club made an offer to Drinkwater for 900k and upped it to 1million when he rejected it when no one else had bided against us.

I can tell you one thing getsmarty young Humphrey at least looks the part and would quite easily fit in with the other clowns that now occupy the board room , in fact although deaf and dumb he would undoubtedly be the brains of the outfit .

ST. GEORGE ILLAWARRA DRAGONS CONFIRM LANDMARK SIGNING OF HUMPHREY B. BEAR

KOGARAH, NSW – St. George Illawarra Dragons CEO Ryan Webb has today confirmed the club has secured the signature of free agent and iconic entertainer Humphrey B. Bear on a one-year "Development Player" contract, effective immediately.

The signing comes after weeks of rigorous scouting in the Magic Forest, with the Dragons’ recruitment team identifying Humphrey’s elite physical presence, legendary durability, and unparalleled ability to remain calm under pressure without ever uttering a single word of dissent to match officials.

“Humphrey brings a unique skill set to our forward pack,” said Webb. “He is a big body who knows how to find his way to the line, and frankly, his tackle efficiency is through the roof—mostly because once he hugs you, you’re not going anywhere.”

However, the CEO addressed the significant "Special Provisions" section of the contract that has been the subject of intense negotiation with Humphrey’s management.
“We have reached a mutual agreement regarding the NRL’s strict uniform policy,” Webb confirmed. “While Humphrey has traditionally preferred a more… minimalist approach to his lower-half attire, we have inserted a mandatory ‘Lower-Body Textile Clause’. For the first time in his 59-year career, Humphrey will be required to wear official Dragons-branded playing shorts during all on-field activities.”

“We believe this is a win for the fans, the sponsors, and general public decency standards at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium.”

Humphrey B. Bear reportedly nodded three times and performed a celebratory somersault upon signing the deal.

While the club is confident in his ability, Humphrey is expected to miss several mid-season training sessions due to "scheduled seasonal hibernation lethargy" and an ongoing endorsement deal with a local honey co-operative.

Yes yes - AI - but funny none the less

That's hilarious. We need a good laugh

He is very well liked by the younger players

There's biding your time and then there's sitting behind Blake f**king Lawrie, who he is already currently better than. The team is 0-6 and no changes are being made, 0-7 this week. There has been no communication to Loko about what more he needs to do. Sorry, but he's justified here, he should be in the first team. Flano needs to pack his bags before the situation deteriorates further.

 

[twinkletoes]

So if Flano leaves, and Loko gets some game time, high chance he stays?

Rumour has it Bula would like to play under Flanaghan but will not come if he's gone...Ripley's believe it or not!!
