Interesting that no Boyd on the 2020 cover. Surely that's the only NRL team where the captain isn't on it...

Isn't that him in the centre in the background

Jack Bird will be signing with St George for next season. You can read that as fact, I absolutely 100% guarantee it.

Can’t see how it is even possible. The money freed up by Widdop leaving will largely be attributed to paying the full freight of Corey Norman’s contract now that Parra won’t be chipping in for his wages in 2020.

Wouldn’t have thought there’d be a lot of cap room left for Bird unless they somehow resolve the De Belin situation.

The Dragons are much like us at the moment. A lot of their cap is top heavy on forwards and an underachieving marquee half.
