Finally a Team back in Adelaide

The Dragon's of Adelaide

 

[innsaneink]

The old Saints fans from Kogarah and their board members will be choking on their All-Bran this morning

My first thought was to imagine the chaos if someone floated the idea of us being known as Tigers!

I'd build a stand to watch that one play out!

Funny when a club is travelling poorly that merger becomes a talking point.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

if we were known as the TIGERS some on here would melt down

 

[pacey]

Changing the name doesn't really change anything.

The COE will help them attrack more talent as they must be one of the last clubs that didn't have one?

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

we are the only team that has to be known as Wests Tigers in everything from official nrl.com table to journos
every other team when listing mascots can be dragons eels cowboys storm etc
oh no not us...
God forbid anyone just calls us Tigers

 

[Demps]

Yuck

Dragons have moved to the Illawarra, they should be rebranded the Putrid Port Kembla Steelers. 🤣 🤣 🤣

I feel for the Dragons because they are at present in the same black hole we were in for years. You can only attract ageing players and have to pay massive overs, your forced to blood kids way to early and there is negativity everywhere you look. It is so hard to dig your way out of it.

There is no easy road, but they need to put a broom through the place, get a youngish coach with good people skills and try and rebuild the joint. One thing there is usually a good supply of quality kids that come through the Illawarra. Of course the salary cap and two new franchises makes recruiting difficult

Ah yes, the big issues.

I don’t. They are a rotten club with the most cocky supporter base when they are winning.

Terrible idea. There's nothing wrong with the name and fans of both original clubs would hate it.

They need to get their juniors in order, surely the Illawarra has a wealth of talent yet doesn't seem like much is coming through for the club.

All of their talent comes from the South Coast.
