Dragons are now rock bottom and play the Phins at Redcliffe in Rd 13

If they keep losing after sacking Hook... I doubt Hunt forces the issue mid way through the season.

They also now have the most inexperienced coach in the league who is 34 years old.

After Phins they play Panthers in Penrith. Although it is during an Origin week. Panthers play on Sunday so there is a chance some rep players could back up with a Wednesday to Sunday turn around.

Then they play Souffs at home the following week.

Our draw for the rest of the season is pretty rough also.

Last 4 games after the 3rd BYE are manageable. The ones in between the first and third bye will be the test.

By the end of year, we really need to be able to create tries through the hands and middle of the field. The kick tries should be our plan B not our go-to plays.

Heard it’s between Dogs , Broncos and Titans. Just waiting on a release from saints most likely in the offseason.
Ideally I'd like us to get him.
However if Titans cound get him and run with:
1. Brimson
6. Foran
7. Hunt
9. Verills
14. Campbell
That would be a great experienced running spine, with a hooker who has crisp service.

Surely can’t be broncos. Titans would be an option as dolphins.

Hopefully wants to stay south with us.

If he ends up at Titans, I hope we get Campbell.

I like the heads up play from that kid.

As good a player as Campbell is, he is no halfback, so I don’t see how getting him instead of Hunt solves our halfback issue

I reckon Broncos as hooker but to me that’s a long shot.
Anyways it was interesting to hear we are a chance.

Obviously it would be 9… though that’s the coach’s son position. I also can’t see hunt going back to finish as a 9?

Finishing off his career as a hooker at 34, and the extra physicallity, would be a test. Better to pick us and stay preferred 7 running the team :grinning:

He’s said multiple times he doesn’t like playing hooker at club level

Well he must think he’s going to replace Reynolds at the broncos …
Which means Broncos don't have any up and coming half-backs...
