Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf immediately. Just seems logical

For less money? He signed for $600k. Would you have paid a player with 24 NRL games experience that much straight away?
They have a good bunch of young forwards coming through and both metcalf and drinkwater are great additions along with Kolomatagi.
We on the other hand cant even keep our best juniors although we've bought nobody, and our number one up and coming prop can negotiate shortly
Metcalf is a very good player of high potential. However, 40 odd games over 5 to 6 years with an asking price of 1 million. Forget about it! On the plus side sua may get released early.
I can't see them letting him go early with a run at the finals looming, but in a perfect world, Metcalf to Dragons could see Sua coming over to us early.
This would be great as he's usually left side from memory which is where Lorenzo will likely end up (MM on right), meaning Ryles may get the experiment started early with protection in place for the yourg 6.
Dragons will have 5 players on close to $1m next year. Gutho, Holmes, Keon, Metcalf and Drinkwater. Leilua and a couple good young forwards may get pushed out. Would be a good get for Parra. MoN needs to monitor the situation closely.
MON and Roger's are monitoring each others sphincter
Lol!
The Statement: "We are not involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion and we won't be involved in the Lachlan Galvin discussion," Gould told The Sydney Morning Herald on April 21, 2025.
Note on later developments: Despite this initial withdrawal, In late May 2025 they did a backflip where the Bulldogs ultimately signed Galvin effective immediately.
Sound Familiar.
Dragons have a better recruitment team then us with Daniel Anderson there, he knows you have to overpay on a few players when you have a weak roster, or else you are stuck in the bottom 8
We need to move on from our conservative approach, if we offered Keaon an extra year, we could've had him and Sua at the club next year, which would of changed the dynamic
Thats 100% correct Joel, Daniel Anderson is only new there and will make them better. Whilst we stick with the three stooges
Who would the apologists prefer, Daniel Anderson or Mark O'neill.
Anderson has done more in a few months than O'neill did in.8 years here, and thats totally on Sarantinos as the ceo.
