Nene Macdonald leaves Dragons for the Cowboys

[Freakzilla]

Nice signing for the Cowboys.

We should've got him instead of gunning for Burpie Frech.

He left to be close to his family. We were never getting him.

 

[Kip Drordy]

Took him 6 years to work out he was homesick!!

Cowboys are going to be dangerous next year, Morgan will be given the keys to the attack like he was at the end of 2017 and they will have McLean healthy partnering Taulmalalo and Hess with Barba out the back.

Will have to wait and see. They were supposed to be dangerous this year as well

The golden arches head north... and I'm McLovin it!

I wonder if Herbert re-signs with the Dragons now that Nene has left? Pearson is an ok depth signing for the Dragons but they look weaker coming into the new season

Herbert got the boot.

The Cowboy roster always looks good on paper. They always seems to struggle getting the best out of it though.

They'll have 2 speedsters with Barba and Nene there next year. Problem is... no Thurston! Will be interesting to see how they go without him long-term for the first time in over a decade!

Went alright in 2017 with him missing last half

 

[CaptainJackson]

Their backline still leaves a lot to be desired. Either too old or too slow, they need more pace

 

[Mr Invisible]

So that means a fully fit Cowboys backline is what?

1. Barba
2. Feldt
3. Opacic
4. McDonald
5. Gela-Mosby

Plus Carlin Anderson

Add to that Te-Marie Martin, Michael Morgan, Jake Clifford, Ben Hampton all floating around the halves.
Jake Granville at hooker (probably with Martin/Hampton off the bench).
Maybe even Asiata

Taumalolo, Cooper, Hess, McLean, Scott, Bolton

The only question is the halves.. if they link up (and with low injuries) Cowboys are definite contenders you'd think.

Yeah I know Herbert hasn’t been kept but this could have changed their mind. Didn’t Lichaa get the boot then the club decide to re-sign him?

They'll probably line up rd 1 with this 1-7 based off what's been said in the media and what the majority of Cowboys fans think:

1. Barba
2. Feldt
3. Opacic
4. Tuala
5. McDonald
6. Morgan
7. Clifford

With O'Neil and GGM unlucky to miss out.
