No one is obligated to tell anyone anything.

You make a fair point. Ok so these player sagas remain in house and we fans remain in the dark. That is what pisses me off, the uncertainty, always having to conject.

Butchers some chances with his lack of passing to support could be an issue with Craig

He's one of those centres who can't pass? In that case, he'll be a second rower soon.

We have one of those in Tsougrannis already.

On Friday we submitted our best completion rate in 10 months, our fewest errors in 19 games and most offloads for the season. And betting our tackle rating is the best for at least three years, despite having JDB in our ranks.

Sounds like Buchanan. Howarth looks impressive in play and his stats back up that. Buy him Ando.

I did not know who our new attack coach was, did you guys. He is Shannon Fraser, former Waratahs and Junior wallabies attack coach.
Slight difference. Tsougranis is a second rower being played in the centres. The young bloke is doing a pretty good job considering he’d never played centre before 2025 let alone at cup level and debuted in first grade at centre and was pretty strong that night

Watching the Melbourne-Canberra game, Howarth can pass but he's not proficient at it. With a bit of work, could be good enough. Apart from that, looks like a really good centre. Is it confirmed Melbourne have given him permission to negotiate with other clubs? Can't see why it would be the case judging by what he does on the field.

Jesse McLean rumours, bulldogs leading the way but we are in the hunt allegedly

seems like we are in the hunt for every OB on the market, I wonder whether it is now value for money propositions only... hence so many slipping through to the keeper. Noting we have quite a few spots to fill yet.. and we could do with depth in really 1-5 & 9 in particular..
also still feel like we are trying to keep our 2028 options open for Bostock or Herbie (or whoever).. so we have to be careful how much we spend.. even with Val going.. that said cant be putting all our eggs in the 1 basket.. if someone signs Herbie I reckon big chance Dolphins hold onto Bostock if he is happy there.. and if he isn't im sure lots of clubs will try..

isnt he in a different postcode to his brother in terms of ability ... like hayden to zac lomax level?

Yeah I’m not absolutely buzzing with interest in him, I think he’s a bit overblown
Casey McLean has the physical attributes and extreme speed/skill, Jesse plays hard but he’s not a particularly great athlete.
Think we can do better tbh

I don't really rate him personally.

Thoughts on Xerri (on the outer) and/or C. Graham (injury prone)? Both have some elite qualities & are modern day outside backs while still in their mid 20s. Anyone else on the outer/injury prone? Both also solve some outside back issues for us. Assume we'd have to move on the likes of Suli & potentially pay out Gutho.

He's not obligated to tell us anything RVH, he explains it in the Dragons Liar General Info Thread. I think the best explanation was from
RufusRex To me he sealed his deal by taking this long to get fit and start performing to what he was being paid, matter of too little too late. There is a reason after all why he hasn't settled at any club he has been to, his price tag to his output is now way out of sync.Justadragon

I actually dont mind Dramas being handled in house RVH, just look at what happened with LKT, I dont think in the long run regardless of what happened to Flanno that it endeared him to anyone, maybe Talau and some of his team mates especially.
