Meltdown mode when Parcell leaves

I think we need two decent props, a back rower, a winger + a controlling kicking HB

James Graham verbally agreed to 3 year deal with St George... looks like he's finishing his career down there. Don't blame him our comp is appallingly average.

I doubt that has anything to do with his decision, down to money pure & simple.

Sadly i have to agree.

That said JG could still come back to SL at 34 for a couple of years and still be a top prop imo if he fancies it, can't blame him for taking one last big contract in the best comp.

Absolutely, I'd love to see him back here but he does right staying in Auz. Great player.

He's past his best IMO, I doubt he'll last another 3 years down there.

He is past his best but I did wonder if he might regain some form under a different coach or at a different club. The Bulldogs have gone stale under Hasler a bit like Souths have under Maguire.

I'm not sure St George is a good choice though. They looked hopeless at times versus the Bulldogs at the weekend.

Me too Bullseye but as the salary cap is as tight as a drum at all of the clubs in the NRL there weren't that many options open to him tbh

IMO a 3 years deal at St George is about as good a deal as he could have wished for monetary wise
