Down here in the Illawarra the defeat is significant news among the Dragons' supporters. The Dragons are one of the well-performed NSW Cup teams. The names Fainu, Andrews and Haywood are frequently mentioned in the context of their quality in crucial positions.

I would have loved to see
Latu , Andrew’s , Lanyon all play reserves rest of year to get loads of form together , they are our future but these injuries just keep coming so it’s not possible , they stay together and I think the magpies could win the reserve comp , they have been getting much better , they make the finals for sure this year , just need them to keep ticking along Roberts back playing is also good , How far is Dunster off a game anyone know

He needs time to develop it is not his fault we have issues, we have rushed through to many young players and where has that got us??
Look at Maka as another player rush before he was ready.
Josese Lanyon is an interesting one.
I like many others I was very impressed with him last season playing many strong games for our Wests Tigers Jersey Flegg team.
He showed good physicality, good skill and good ability to keep the opposition guessing if he was looking to ball play or run the ball.
The added bonus was he showed good ability to mix between playing 9 or 13.
So based on all of that he thoroughly deserved his call up to NSW Cup and despite a slowish start to the season where he was mixing time between Ron Massey Cuo and NSW Cup, he started to show signs of what is is capable of and subsequently got called up to make his NRL debut.
However I don’t think he has shown enough this season at NSW Cup level or in his limited NRL game time to be confident his service from dummy half is at the required NRL standard and although he is a solid defender, he is not one who has shown he is capable of making 50 plus tackles per game if required.
So what I am saying is he is ok tobe used as an impact type of player at either 9 or preferably 13, but he is not someone who has proven to be relied on to play big minutes and demonstrate high energy and willingness to make plenty of tackles and still have energy to provide spark in attack.
This is probably the reason we are likely going to see Tristan Hope named at 9 for our NRL team this afternoon and sparks the question, has Lanyon done enough to be considered a better impact option at 9 than Jared Hayward ?
For the record I believe Lanyon is a much better 13 than he is a 9 and we will see his best in that position.

Luke vs Kit!
He's been good for a couple of seasons now. Bit flakey when he came into grade & didn't think he had much of a future. Plays real tough.
