LMS is coming to Perpignan and Perry is on his way to London.

...

no, really.

and where have you heard that from?

sorry but whom is LMS ?
Dave

Louis McCarthy Scarsbrook

Is this one of those things where one bloke spreads a rumour to see how far it spreads?

Are you sure you havent mistaken it for Katie Perry coming to London

I thought it was champagne perry!!!

Or even that French player Perry A Water.

Actually it's a case of very wishful thinking.

Well Dobson's caught on

On a balanced view, I personally do not think that Mr Perry has brought a lot to the team. A journeyman player and no star or advancement of a team who were going places until his arrival. Even the French supporters argue that their preference would be Bosc at 6 and Mogg at 7. I tend to agree with their views.

I think we all think that 6&7 should not include Perry. If we're keeping Bird we need to think about Bird and Mogg as centre an half ...

lock it.

For me Mogg needs to be in 3/4, JPB is doing an OK job but his defence is lacking for me, one problem for me is the way we are defendng on the flanks, now we have always been weak defensively on the flanks IMO and we always seemed to defend compressed, but ATM its is so not working its not funny.

Bosc at 7, Mogg at 6.

who at 3 and 4?

For me, Thomas at half, Bird at 5/8, with Moggy & Bell at centre. I think this combo would do the trick

I'd go with that.

You mean the really successful partnership from last year when the Dragons overachieved and finished 3rd in the regular rounds?

Nah, that'll never work mate.

Kevvie Walters.

Bell & Duport. The latter is not a winger and should stop being told to play there. If they needed a winger that badly they should have done more to get the perfectly reasonable Younes Khattabi to stay.

is that the same combination that i've been saying over the last 18 months is the best available to the dragons?

in fairness to walters, the idea was to change the half back combination at wakefield to bosc and mogg, but moggs late withdrawal left him reverting back to peryy and bosc!

They also have a French international at UTC who could fill in on the wing.

assuming you mean Murphy, the poor bloke seems to be in limbo.

Or, Walters doesn't rate him....

Not necessarily a bad thing, given some of Walters' opinions on the game he's putting into practice this season.

he's being played at full-back a lot, but is struggling with a hip injury!

on another injury note, andrew bentley damaged his medial knee ligament playing for UTC in his come back game last weekend!
