I watched him closely and for the life of me I just can't see why we signed him.

Ben Hunt to Miss Eels Clash

It looks like the Dragons won't have Ben Hunt in their side against the Eels in the Sunday Afternoon match at Bankwest Stadium. Ben Hunt was injured in the game against Manly and is looking at 4 to 6 weeks on the sidelines. Hopefully that should incr

Game Review

A pretty poor performance all round from parra. They looked like they picked up where they left off last week where they were Lucky to get the win over Tigers.

Hopefully they turn this around next week but I have my doubts based on past history.

Errors

Hello all

I noticed this last year and it is happening again. We consistently make more errors than our opponents. In the 4 rounds played so far we have made more errors than our opponents. Same story tonight. Surely this has to be of concern to the c
