There are few quality haves getting around and Hunt is one of the best. The Dragons would be fools to not try and keep him but I am sure Wayne wouldn’t mind a a half price Ben Hunt on his roster next year.

Why Dragons should not be in Hunt to extend Ben’s contract despite Dally M contender's career-best form

If we are using this definition of the word

“offensive display of superiority or self-importance; overbearing pride.”

Then yes I would say they are moderately arrogant, but it is more their fans, exceedingly more so.

Being arrogant is not a good thing for a team sport. If you don’t respect your team mates or opponents then you will fail.

Confidence is different.

Wow, so many so young.

Greeny was a great player and a very good coach at the highest level. RIP

I have walked through all the teams suburbs and it didn’t even take two hours and I was not going fast. It is not about the stretch of the fan base, the AFL teams can’t have a tribal area, an area they own like in Sydney. They rely on family passing down the fandom.

People talk about how Sydney people don’t go to local grounds but they don’t turn up to the big ones either. I would say I have seen more sellouts of suburban grounds than any big crowds at Homebush or the old SFS.

If you have good grounds I am sure the fans will be more drawn to them than some generic stadium that is harder to get too

The state Government if they were doing their job properly along with City councils should have the public transport system being revamped right now to for a bigger and carbon neutral public already. The Stadiums really are a separate thing. To me Sydney should have one big Stadium and 4 or 5 20-30L seat Stadiums spread around and the NRL and backers should be fitting part of the bill if not most of it

Still no Gamble, I am assuming he is injured

Yes the old match of the round is a decent argument but you can’t use Melbourne. All their teams are with in a two hour stroll other than St Kilda and all very close to those two Stadiums plus a transport network build basically around those two Stadiums. Sydney is not like that at all.

There is a good chance Uncle Wayne gets him on $700k and turns him into a star.

Corey Norman is very talented. His application was the issue was it not?

I think personally in the long term smaller Stadiums around Sydney will breed Tribalism and long term will sell more tickets. They have a home and fans will feel that, Large Stadiums will see the game fall in popularity. To be real Sydney just needs less teams.

I mean in Brisbane Souths or Easts could come into the NRL, play out of QEII we could easily have 4 modern Stadiums for the 4 NRL teams with just a little bit of money invested in upgrades. Sydney just is to full of corruption and developers to do that it seems.

He was a centre in QRL footy to start with. I recon he could also play hooker down the track

I was going to say the same thing. This was how things were in 2010’s but now we have more old school 5/8ths and centres are becoming strike weapons again.

Herbie is reluctant to pass so he probably would be a running fullback. I have no idea how he would go defensively and organizing the line.

He has more potential in my opinion, but Herbie is a first grader so I would rather keep both.

He is 50/50. We have Mariner coming through so I am not sure if we keep Herbie. Reportedly he wants to play fullback as well.

Broncos should trying o retain Flegler , Hetherington, Paix, Gamble and Corey Jensen. Paix on a sort term deal with the hope Mozer continues to grow into a first grader.
The Dolphins get to cherry pick the rest. I think they will be looking at Jayden Campbell and the Sharks wingers plus maybe Saab and Garrick. Kennedy and the Talakai could be options as well. I am not sure if they would go for Burton but he should be an option. Obviously Munster is a target

Gamble is the man Matt. you know it to be true!!

Martin has to come back. This is the biggest no brainer ever. I have seen some talk of Tesi playing hooker and that could be an idea but he needs to play for Souths( and to be frank I am not sure I even want him playing for Souths but given how shockingly bad we are right now he might do ok)
