TIM Moltzen was readying himself to confront a hostile crowd of about 16,000 people in Wollongong. Well, you can now double that figure.
Negotiations have started to play the anticipated round three match next season between Moltzen's Wests Tigers and rivals St George Illawarra at either the SFS or SCG.
Dragons fans remain angry that Moltzen signed with their club before wriggling out of the deal to return to Wests Tigers. The game, to be played in mid-March, was originally scheduled for WIN Stadium but high winds in September damaged the grandstand and forced the closure of the arena.
Saints will be obliged to relocate several games early next season.
Dragons officials want the Tigers game played at the SCG although the SFS would seem more appropriate given there is a Sheffield Shield match between NSW and Queensland at the SCG between Match 1 and 4.
A rock-hard cricket pitch in the middle of the field has the real potential to cause injury. A match between these two rivals at the SFS could attract between 30,000 and 32,000 fans. Saints will probably use Kogarah for some of their other deferred matches. The SFS game will also pit Jamie Soward and Benji Marshall.
