Nonsense. Averaged over 20 posts per game last season. And have had a quiet season with sporadic inactivity this season. I still read the comments tart of every game, post (even tokenistically) in most games and contribute in our team PM. And most importantly I love this game.

There’ll be plenty of time for the ‘vale’ nonsense when I eventually do retire or die, and when that happens I’ll be a Sweet FA immortal. In fact, by then, they’ll probably have to come up with a new category to highlight just how much I stand above ;)
 
The Hawks are lower than I anticipated
And the Bombers are higher
I agree Cadaver - we are a sneaky chance
I hope we at least match last season’s top 4 effort

You have to feel for the Dragons, decimated by the scorched Earth policy of the Bombers. PhenomenalV1 did a fairly good job of commencing the rebuild, and their rookies all looked ok at times. The standout was AceAndy, and though captaincy in his sophomore season will be a big ask, he looks to have taken to SFA as well as any rookie on the past 5 seasons. Captain PhenomenalV1 and Hatchy1992 tried their hardest to engage a new group, but the buy-in from the established clubmen wasn't achieved, as a league-low 4 players posted every week during S27.

The Dragon's team posting numbers crashed from 446/week in S26 to 170 this season, and it is difficult to find anything positive to hook your coat onto, as they finished in the bottom 3 of the league in every category. They had the second-lowest number of active posters (>5/week) with 7, and the least number of posters appearing during the season, at 16. It's actually a small miracle that they managed to claim 3 match thread victories.

NEEDS: RECRUITMENT. The Dragons must claim some recruiting victories, bringing established posters into the fold. Another batch of rookies would also be a shot in the arm, but they truly lack experience.

RANKING: Bottom 2
Some great recruiting by Phenom ....has certainly turned the club around & heading in the right direction .....pure quality

Wasn't Pie 4 Life supposed to play a central role in the club this season ?

Stones and glass houses, friend. Phenom has stunk it up but you're certainly in no position to shit on the Dragons.

I’m in the best position to comment ....instead of posting inanely, try and think thru what you’re posting

Wayne, you were the Dragons most prolific poster in S26. You are in fact in the worst position to comment.
 
Prolific does not equal good
True but we're talking Dragons here. I think most will agree that the Dragons would have been better this season if Wayne was still there. The Dragons don't need good posters right now. They need a pulse.

No. No they wouldn't have.

Noise does not equal engagement with others, quality, or humour. It's just annoying noise

Best thing that happened to the dragons in S27 was that flog leaving, because it allowed PhenomenalV1 to build a team that wouldn't be just known as annoying spambots

Wayne will be fine when he tones things down. He just gets excited. He's a great fit for the Bombers. If the Dragons had a capable leader you would be correct. All things being equal however, the Dragons would have been better with Wayne than without this season.

I also was kicked out of the Dragons, in a broom sweep strategy by the new Captain ....so I can comment on the effectiveness of that strategy

100% wrong

I used to think like this, and defended him in my LG this time last season. Guess what, he will never grow out of it because this is who he is. It's not banter or persona, it's him and people don't change.

And how has the good leadership at the bombers helped him? His spam went up this season, and made bombers threads for some weeks unwatchable (unless you put the flog on ignore)

Also id drop the cheap shots against PhenomenalV1 . He came into a club with virtually no list and with its two leaders having tapped out due to RL shit. You laugh that they have a pulse, that's more than what they had when he started. You are still in at the cheap seats at the gumbies. I will look forward to seeing how you perform as a leader of a challenged club if it happens

There's a niche for everyone here and Wayne's found his at the Bombers. People might not change but their habits do and Wayne won't be any different to the rest of us in that regard.

As for Phenom, I'm not taking cheap shots. The biggest issue for the Dragons in S26 was a lack of leadership and the inexperienced posters were left to their own devices and did a pretty good job under the circumstances. What would you know, it happened again! I get that real life shit happens - Blaze Storm moved countries, Hatchy1992 was on a uni placement - this is just a game when it's all said and done. But where's the help? And what has Phenom done differently to the captains before him?

And don't you worry about the Gumbies, my friend. Despite real life shit in our camp as well we've had excellent support behind the scenes and that's translated to a bump in interest. It's small, it's early days, but we're trending in the right direction.

Phenom wasn't captain in S26, so it is a cheap shot to blame him for shit he had zero involvement in

That's pathetic mate, it would be as bad as saying bran wears the shit golumless did prior. He didn't and he doesn't.

Also phenom is gone. I get bantering with him while he's here, but sending him off with a **** you isn't cool

I'd love for Phenom to stick around in the background and just float in and post when he feels like it. He's chosen to leave altogether for his own reasons. I wish him well. None of that gives him a free pass for not doing a whole hell of a lot as captain. Look at your own club for a moment. TJASTA might be having a tough time getting new posters in but at least he's present and has decent support behind him in you and TT. Can you really say that about the Dragons?

I would be more worried about the weight of a rebuild being on someone still so raw to the league than the Furies tbh.

I've openly said if I leave the furies it's for the dragons or the warriors, and I think the dragons are better placed today than they were this time in S26. Change takes time.

Again, I'd focus on cementing the rebuild your club has under way - neither your mob or mine have the right to throw rocks at other clubs right now
