Whoever at the Dragons was responsible for signing him as coach must have felt he was the right man for the job? What has changed? Who else was available/considered at the time? Regardless, the current “environment” is not conducive for team harmony & the sooner the matter is resolved the better.
Griffin is not an animal, he is a human being and Dragons should start treating their coach like one
Billy Slater saying “no” to the Dragons is as sensible as Mitchell Pearce saying “non” to Benji. Unnecessary stress avoided in both cases. C’est la vie.

Re: Ben Hunt defending his coach. Even though players shouldn’t have a say (unless you’re Pat Cummins) however I am not surprised with his honesty & loyalty. Remember he declined to attend THAT BBQ. I hold him in high esteem.

Two questions. Firstly, if not for St Kilda’s injury list, would Owens be in the 22? Secondly. If he was in the side you support, would you be displaying the same level of bitterness? Or perhaps you may not have submitted the article in the first place.

As a Roosters fan, I am apprehensive about a pack consisting of Radley, Lodge. JWH, Collins, Nathan Brown & Napa. May give away a penalty or two.

Just when I thought nobody could come up with worse puns than me.
Or perhaps you use the same script writer.

Hats off to you. Suggestion. Instead of a second hat, why not a sombrero with a partition? Do any Roosters “haters” know where they may be a sombrero available?

The AFL don’t have “double up games” before each team plays each other once. After Round 17, I’m not sure how the remaining draw is done. Perhaps it’s based on the previous season’s ladder positions however to have Titans/Dragons twice in 6 weeks is not ideal.

“Reign in” Victor Radley? Are you suggesting he should be crowned King Victor?

Hook “We can’t sit here & complain about the rules”. Kevie “Tonight we had a lesson about playing football”. What do they mean?

Good morning Geoff. For a passionate supporter, a win against the odds is even more enjoyable & satisfying. Ricky must have read your pre game comments about “losing the team”.

Craig Mc Dermott, the cricketer also had nickname “Billy the Kid”. Anyone know why.m
Which footy code has the best nicknames?
Tony. Away from the playing field, the chief sports writer of the CM & wonderful journalist, Robert Craddock is always referred to as “Crash” after that great rocker of the 60’s Billy Craddock. Anyone else old enough to remember him?

Barry was falsely accused of being biased. In the first half, his arm pointed the same way when blowing penalties. In the second half, he pointed the other way. I thought he did a good job

Correction. Re: Les Johns & his nickname. Meant to post “Dropped out on match day”. At 3.46 am, my brain wasn’t working to its full capacity.

One more Tony before I go back to sleep. A mate of mine, also an old (like me) Easts supporter told me the great winger, Bill Mullins was nicknamed “Woof” as he was a postman & dogs weren’t “mans best friend” as far as they were concerned.That nickname could have been resurrected for Mitchell Pearce & Joel Monaghan due to a different form of “canine connection”.

Good morning Tony. I set the alarm to read your article. No, not really however while I’m awake, some contributions. Tony “Plugger” Lockett. Apparently a nickname given by his grandfather to his father & passed on to Tony. Referring to possessing a “green thumb” & plugging around the garden. Secondly. One of Roy & HG ‘s classic nicknames. Tony Hearn “Penalty Puller”. Lastly. I vaguely recall the great Les Johns sometimes referred to as “Dandruff” as he often “dropped out on match due to injury.

Memories of the SCG hill & the eskies. Everybody was well behaved.

What about a “true” Heritage Round”. Original jerseys & food & drink prices that don’t require a bank loan to purchase a cold pie, a small sachet of tomato sauce & a warm soft drink.

I meant Ryan Cross. Paul Cross was a Balmain Tiger. Must have been half asleep.
Easter weekend and the Biblical First 13
Good morning Tony. What about Peter’s (I assume you are referring to PVL) chosen apostle, Andrew? Shame we can’t” resurrect “& include Rugby great, Jonah Lomu. Maybe difficult whilst in a whale however Normie (It ain’t necessarily so) raised doubts about that.

Suggested bench. Former Roosters Paul Cross & Danny Shepherd. Also Fletcher Baker & Jaemyn Salmon (loaves & fishes)

Tony. I know how you feel. I stopped going to anger management courses because they were starting 1 minute late & it made me extremely annoyed. Waste of time! Your comment reminded me of someone who used to be apathetic but now they just don’t care. Observers may think we have the same script writer.

The Bye will “go back to the drawing board” & have an honest team meeting to assess what went wrong against the Tigers. Expect an improved performance next time they “meet”.
