Is ours any worse that some other clubs? Does not stop, say, the Tigers, the Sharkies or the Grubs from being able to entice top draw players.

He can almost certainly get more money in the NRL. Almost all the Aus players who go to super league are ones who can't get a deal in the NRL.

You guys aware that the Couchmans and Sione Fianau have been contracted past this season. WTF Flanagan and BOD!!

Reckon if our useless f***ers let Jack go he will choose England as he is on public record that he wanted to be a one club man and would play for no other NRL team than the Dragons.

"Haven't" you mean, don't you?
I was just about to mention it. Shocked these stupid fuking dickheads have gone and extended Frank Molo, signed RFM while both Couchman's are soon going to be on the market. Unbelievable!

Yes mate I did. Unbelievable!! All indications were that Flanagan was a step up from Griffin, we have been sadly mistaken big time.
I dont think so as he was listed as being off contract end of year along with the others I mentioned. and so he should be. Our worse off season gain.

They both need to be extended immediately! JDB is less urgent because of his age but should also be a priority. I would say Zac is a priority but he was already signed long term until brain damaged Flanno released him!

Both Couchmans, Sione Finau and RFM are contacted for 2025.
M Molo was extended a few weeks ago.

Can be approached by rival clubs from November 1
. They should be locked up for at least another 2 or 3 years.

Then inform the NC sports desk as a certain scribe has not done his homework. I knew I had read both Finau and Tamale had been extended. How did RFM warrant two years.

These two have to be the next to be taken off the market for '25. One year with an option for Jack and 4 yrs for Jayden, tho he may have to settle for 3 with an option..

Sorry I wasn't clear. All those are singed for next year but can take offers from rival clubs from November 1 this year.
As for RFM, I have no idea at all. Wouldn't have been a bad signing if Flanno the fuking dickhead hadn't signed or extended literally half a dozen other fringe first grade forwards.

LOMAX EXIT LEAVES DRAGONS FANS DISGRUNTLED
There are more questions than there are answers over Zac Lomax’s defection to Parramatta.The in-form St George Illawarra star wanted to leave the Red V so badly he walked away from the final two years of his deal with the club. Shane Flanagan insists there was no falling out between the pair, and the narrative has been that the outside back was disgruntled over being picked on the wing rather than his preferred position at centre.
But speaking after amassing a 16-point haul, which included a try and two-point field goal against South Sydney, Lomax himself declared that wasn’t the case.
“It’s got nothing to do with being (on the) wing, I try to pride myself on being a football player and I love my teammates and I love being able to play wherever that is for the team … they’re the best bunch of boys to play with,” Lomax said.

So what is the real reason? Now it’s Dragons fans who are disgruntled over his premature exit, with one even demanding on social media “heads should roll” over Lomax’s departure.
It wasn’t Lomax’s only eyebrow-raising moment on Saturday. He blasted captain Ben Hunt for not challenging a play-the-ball error – planting the ball while attempting to play it.
Replays showed Hunt made the right decision but that didn’t stop Lomax from spraying his captain, and going on with it in the back play after Latrell Mitchell scored on the back of the error.
Parramatta skipper Clint Gutherson and halfback Mitchell Moses have never shied away from spraying teammates, and stamping their authority, during play. Lomax’s blow-up would have gone down like a lead balloon at Parramatta.

Ok if Zac did not leave us because he had been moved to the wing or as Flanagan says, not over a dust up between the two either, then why the hell did he turn his back on the club he loves with two years left on his contract.

Does this sound like a bloke who wants out of our club willingly. No it does not. C'mon BOD, is time to come clean with your disgruntled fans. Also keep us in touch with the negotiations for JDB and Jayden S'ua.
