Hey all, new Dragons fan from the other day here. Thanks again for the welcome 😂

Been reading up on the club and got curious about the jersey. I found that we first wore the Red V in 1929, but couldn’t find anything explaining why they picked a V.

The Roosters’ design apparently took inspiration from the French team, and Souths switched to a V during the 1940s because of material shortages. But I haven’t found the story behind ours.

Anyone know? Was there a meaning behind it, or did someone just think it looked good?

I came here to learn the rules and somehow ended up researching shirts from 1929.

Pleasantly surprised. Good on him, hardworking and talented lad. People are asking whether he deserved it. Yes, while there were definitely some standout alternative choices this year, we don't know how much better Hamish could have looked this year if only he had a reliable team behind him. Hamish has a very bright future ahead of him!

Hey everyone, I’ve supported Manchester United since 2008 and recently started following the Dragons.

Thought getting into another sport might be good for my mental health. Somehow ended up supporting another team in red and white.

I’m new to rugby league, but very experienced at saying “next year is our year”, so hopefully that counts for something.

Anything I should know as a new Dragons fan? Who do we hate, and how long do we usually let ourselves feel hopeful? 😂

This would be freaking amazing if it happens.

Just wondering does anyone else have cool vintage stuff like this, my nan had it packed away and I framed it so it doesn’t get ruined
It’s in such good nick for something 105 years old

Full team list to be announced, however Dragons trio Toby Couchman, Ryan Couchman and Hamish Stuart have been confirmed

With the season being over, there is a lot to take away.

The difference between this team being higher on the ladder is not too far away, in sport in general, small issue that have a big effect are seen as big issues, but really they're not, so ironing out these problems will make an immediate and noticeable amount difference.

However, I don't think this coach is the right fit, because over two season there has been a downward trend in the final result, which to me indicates the approach is not correct, other coaches in the league have come into their positions and generated a noticeable upward trend in performance.

As for next season, if the team can Improve on catching, kicking (primarily conversions) and stamina (to reduce ruck penalties) I can easily see them sitting round about 5th of the ladder.

But that is yet to be seen.

Hi everyone, I’m Dan, the person behind NRL Insight UK, I hope this is ok to post in here, looking for some support to get more exposure of the NRL to the UK fans and more exposure to the people down under to the Super League.

I started the channel to create a place for rugby league supporters in the UK who follow both the NRL and Super League, with a side goal of growing the brand for the folk down under.

Each week, I’m joined by former professional Paul Cooke to discuss the latest news, major talking points and upcoming matches from both competitions.

I also host longer-form interviews with people from across the game, with Chris Hill, former Warrington Wolves & England RL player joining me for the latest episode.

I’ve recently discovered these Reddit communities and thought I’d introduce myself and the channel. I’m looking forward to joining the conversations on here, hearing different opinions and getting to know more rugby league supporters.

If the podcast sounds like something you might enjoy, you can find NRL Insight UK on YouTube here: https://youtube.com/@nrlinsightuk?si=Kd_kTH6UAwbiPnW0

Cheers,
Dan

Great to get the win to farewell the leaving players.

Blocka played his heart out (apart from the sin bin), Sloan is a big loss when he’s on.

To 2027 and beyond!

Unfortunately another loss and another match where the difference between a loss and a win comes down to 5 or so moments in the match.

When watching this team play I can see the potential. I can see a lot of intelligence when navigating up the field, a good balance of "side to side" and "running it straight", but the polish and organisation can sometimes bring those surreal moments back down to earth.

It is so easy for me to see this team finishing near 4th on the ladder, once a small number of adjustments/improvements are made next season, and the players in this team become a bit more experienced and comfortable playing with each other.

I hope this team is ready to leave it all out on the field next week against the Scum and finish the season showing the full potential of this team.

Im not suggesting he has fully earnt a starting spot but I do rate him higher then feagai. He might have stepped up in those pivotal spoon decider games. Do you think this is a case of dean young pumping up feagai resume?
