Round 13 vs Penrith

As long as he is not throwing that at Hunt if they extend him. I reckon KF has more play making potential than the sook had at same age. Is already a better defender.
You would rather the club throw big money at Kyle Flanno than Hunt? I know Hunt is overrated but Kyle is lucky to be a NSW Cup standard half or 5/8. And wasn't at Canterbury where he was dropped from first grade then dropped to a bench utility in Cup.

This will be close
Lomax when he comes back for either Feagai. I still think Lomax best serves the team at centre but he is an Origin winger now. Hunt at halfback for Flanno or Jesse. I think Jesse might offer more at 5/8 if his defence is good enough. Su'A in for RFM and RFM on the bench for BMM. I think that is about the best team. Might need to do something about Liddle not being able to play 80min but honestly, Brown isn't a good replacement hooker. I'd rather Connor. M or H. Finau.

$3/4m in the war chest and who of any note do we have coming here in '25. We are losing local junior Zac Lomax and possibly Jack de Belin to add to the gloom. :mad:
Yep Hunt will get Lomax's money ...... This joint is becoming a joke and I'm slowly losing interest ....... Piss him off the guys trouble .......

Agree completely but Hunt is way better than Kyle Flanno!
Agree to a point but Hunt has had 7 years with us , Kyle has had 10min with us if we compare time ....... As for way better respect your opinion but mine differs ......

Hunt is overrated but surely first grade standard. Kyle Flanno is not first grade standard. Why not other club wanted him until his old man signed on to coach the Dragons.

In the recent clash between the St. George Illawarra Dragons and the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, both Ben Hunt and Kyle Flanagan showcased their defensive prowess. Let’s compare their tackle efficiency from that game:

Based on these stats, Kyle Flanagan had a higher tackle efficiency in the last game. His solid defensive contributions played a crucial role for the Dragons. 🏉🛡️12.

Better but good old Flanno throwing Marschke into the hot seat rather than Kyle. Who could have guessed? Oh, that's right, I did this morning.

They were both very bad. Problem for me is, when has Kyle had a good game? For us or any of his previous 3 clubs.
I do agree with you , not saying Kyle is a super star far from it , but if you look at those games we lost Hunt is really no better , last game his tackle efficiency was worse than Kyles , and when we do win Hunt does stand out because everything goes to him ....... I am really pissed off if they extend Hunts contract ...... Should have been stripped of the captaincy before the season started ....... Anyway that's on Flanno ........

I agree with that but if Hunt was released by the club today, how long do you think it'd take another club to pick hom up?

Kyle was on the NRL scrapheap. No one was making an offer for his services until his old man stepped in. There is no shame not being an NRL player. I'm not either. It just pisses me off that his dad really wants him to be a NRL player and is using the Dragons for it.

Lets hope we start to attract players next year and they can both go ........

I think Hunt has value as a hooker. I'd be looking to make Su'A captain and play Hunt at hooker for his final year. Su'A has just re-signed long-term, still only mid 20s, plays 80min. Why not make him captain? Lomax would've been my first choice but.....
