Yep, no more of the dross that couldn’t make the panthers and parra sides so we get there rejects (I’m looking at you Kyle Stanley)

gotta start recruiting better, takes a lot of money and effort but it can be done. No more of this bare minimum stuff
I'm not sure who is was that put the team with Halangahu, Latu, Tonga, Williams, Shadi and more together. I thought it was Kyle Stanley but maybe not.

Caught lightning in a bottle with a few extraordinary signings like Jake/Latu/Loko all playing in the same SG side

We got Jake because Penrith didn’t want him after a bad injury at a very young age and Kyle sold Latu the dream when he was 15 apart from that it’s slim pickings for him and he hasn’t shown a heap in all honesty

First thing is to keep our own talent. Imagine how much we would be better if our wingers were Reuban Garrick and Jack Bostock! I'm not a huge fan of Garrick but he's much better than CT and Sloan. If Bostock stays injury free I think he might cement himself as the best winger in the game next year.

Definitely a big 2024 where the stars aligned.. I dont think they would have got their without TPH either, he was god-mode from fullback that year (attack and defence).. Hammoud was on fire too.. neither been able to step up a grade quite yet... still have hope though.. but they will need a big 2026.

But a big pack is everything.. same with NSW Cup this year, until all those injuries they were dominating up front and it makes winning games so much easier.. backs have time and space and a retreating defence... they just have to do an average job.. they can make mistakes too.. and the team can recover... its exactly why I have so much trouble watching first grade... we need so much to go right to win a game, 1 or 2 mistakes and it can be over.. its f***ing emotionally exhausting.. really we need the opposition to make a fair few mistakes to even the contest. Hoping this year even if we dont sign a 7 that Atkinson's boot improves things for us.. but we still need a more reliable forward pack.

All I can say Rev is that Nov 1 we will be really happy or really sad, I'm personally over wishing for things to happen, its always a disappointment, we are supposed to be a professional club that recruits in a professional way. Certainly haven't seen that over the last decade, how much of a difference DA makes yet remains to be seen, But as the everyday Dragons supporter we remain forever hopeful, I am getting tired of pipe dreams though.

Great to see Ah Kee in the SG Ball squad, he turns 18 in April next year (so 17 start of season), is he meant to be in HM again or SG is right? I never understand the age brackets..

I wonder how that dragons SG ball squad is looking? The 2 Pupualii twins r in there from Penrith, Ah Kee will create the spark, but I dont recognise any of their forwards at all, which was a huge issue last year...a new generation, any real prospects? The 1 exception was Kavana who played HM last year, and who from memory captain at times, played lock mostly.. something I liked about him.

Notice there are 2 Ah Kee's? I would think they are related as the name isn't common but do you know anything about Johannan?

Jasais is the gun.. at 6 or even when he went to 9...

The Kusto twins (dogs jn) make it 3 sets of twins in SGB. Like the Ah Kee twins they are a 6 and 9.
The Mougios Twins half and a middle make it 4 sets at Dragons
