News is that Luciano Leilua has signed a 3 year deal with the Catalan Dragons from 2027. Sloan, Cook now Leilua. Maybe Ryan Carr could get a few more Dragons like Lawrie and Sele as well.

Think you will find that pair are going to Ryan Carr's Castleford Tigers David. Luch to Catalan, another Dragons side. He is gonna enjoy having Lewis Dodd and Toby Sexton calling the shots rather than super halves, Flanagan, Hunt. I reckon I am gonna follow Catalan Dragons next yr. John Cartwright has lost Tino's kid brother tho so he will be on the lookout for a replacement prop. Doubt Blocka is up to filling that position.

Geezus, thank you for correcting me Ritchie. I just got all mixed up - so Sloan and Cook to the Castleford Tigers and Leilua to the Catalan Dragons. Well I might be following both then Ritchie.

I'm a bit uneasy about the Blore deal unless it's a great value for money contract. Keaon arriving next year means mins will be at a premium for our fwds. I guess he fills the age & experience gap but a bit worried, especially after our deals for other experienced fwds backfiring.

That’s excellent to hear, coming off his best first grade performance

The different body shapes of our forward pack next year is a deadset joke (in a good way)

Not many teams can definitively say their pack is better than ours in ‘27

If Drinkwater/Metcalf/Liddle all play as well as we know they can play it’s got finals potential

I think it’s more the poor management of the social media side of things. That’s definitely one thing the club struggles with compared to most other nrl clubs.

The website for the first grade and cup squads is useless. For half the season the cup squad on the dragons website had players listed that had moved to other clubs, had retired or were released by the club.

For nrl, no Buchanan or Tsougranis, both are top 30, yet there are 4 other players listed who haven’t played first grade and aren’t top 30. Whoever has this job of maintaining the social media side of things isn’t working overly hard or well for their pay check. It’s embarrassing

This was exactly the same situation last year. Not sure if it was ever updated, as I gave up and stopped looking. Poor effort from the club I thought.

In for the long haul: Loko doubles down with Dragons

Loko Pasifiki Tonga not only wants to stay on the field longer for St George Illawarra each week, he wants to stay with the Dragons beyond his current contract ending in 2027.

Love reading he wants to stay at the club longer.

True it's good to hear, but the proof is in the pudding. Get the contract signed Loko and stop leaving everything to your manager.

We should look at someone like fletcher hunt from the Knights. Has pace, good in the air, good size & is young. He can play a couple of positions too. We need to focus on the OBs.

Agree & has that awkward running style which makes him hard to tackle but didn’t he re-sign
