Jack De Belin is still pretty good.Agree. However, they have a bad squad. I think he probably is their best despite his ability

Kind of, Lomax has been playing well since he had a rocket put up him.Jack De Belin is still pretty good.
I see. I don't follow them closely but saw the game vs Manly before our game last week. De Belin and Lomax, as you mentioned, had blinders. Also the fullback played well. Hunt didn't stand out at all.Kind of, Lomax has been playing well since he had a rocket put up him.
I use to know a few people that worked at the dragons. One was in the old recruitment team, and one who developed the youth players. I won’t say who, when they changed to recruitment to give sons of jobs, it signalled certain things for me.
The recruitment there has been worst in the league for mine. One of those that I knew, who departed in those changes, told me they didn’t know what they were doing. Sure enough, they have gone downhill since those changes.
De Belin is a tackling machine, in attack I feel he lacks a bit, plays too much before the line. The Dragons played him at 7 in one game a few years ago. As a middle forward I'd like to see him bending the line more. Since becoming a Dolphin I haven't been watching as closely, so if he is doing that, all good and my apologies.I see.

I don't know. I just think Hunt gets a few too many accolades. In their last game, he was far from the best. Was poor against us a few weeks ago as well.De Belin is a tackling machine, in attack I feel he lacks a bit, plays too much before the line. The Dragons played him at 7 in one game a few years ago.

It seems everyone but commentators and Ben Hunt himself think Hunt is overrated. At least as a halfback. He's had a few blinders playing hooker at Origin level. Didn't he win man of the series 2 years ago as a hooker?I don't know. I just think Hunt gets a few too many accolades. In their last game, he was far from the best.

only way play jt in teamYep. Best position hooker. And probably very overrated. I am sure Wayne would have approached him when he wanted back to qld if he was any good
Who is that?biggest issue is the clown behind st george bank
Cautionary tale for the Dolphins.Biggest issue at the dragons is paid members don’t have voting rights.
So the board is untouchable. They keep their jobs despite performance, hand out jobs for the boys, and are dinosauric in their approach.
The leagues club is still in the 70’s and a joke amongst nrl clubs.
They are the worst run club in the league I’d say, and those that run it keep getting pay cheques.
Bennett would be in a good position to tell them.Cautionary tale for the Dolphins.
Looking at what happens to every team after Bennett departs is a worry though the situation was different us. We hired him to build a team for sustained success, not win a premiership.Bennett would be in a good position to tell them.
He worked wonders at Dragons and Bunnies but left them in salary cap hole and Newcastle in a salary cap crater. They are still furious with him in Newcastle.to be honest knights weren't well run niether were bunnies and dragons at the time he got there

Wasn't his fault. He did, or almost did as he was hired to do. i.e. win a premiership. Wasn't hired to do that with rhe Dolphins. Seems to be doing an outstanding job. Team is building nicely. Ready for a serious premiership tilt next year.
I agee. Not saying Newcastle are justified being unhappy with him.lol doesnt take much for them to be furious up there yet they hire the dumb ass agent and pongas old man plus wont go into details about few issues at a certain bar
gotta really ask yourself can tell you hole crap load more about knights before and after Bennett's time too
ask the club what they really wanted to do with alex
peter parr was the biggest issue it was his big mouth that said they did they were fine with capI agee. Not saying Newcastle are justified being unhappy with him.
