I've heard the rumblings about Tim Sheens being sounded out as coaching director at the Dragons.
If that eventuates, Sheens is pretty forthright and will surround himself with people he wants.

The Dragons have every right to head down that path if they wish.
If it happens, Steve Price's authority will be undermined. It will almost be like he's an assistant coach again.
The pre-season will be absolutely critical to their fortunes next year. He has to quickly get all their new recruits on the same page and inject some positive energy into the group.
This St George-Illawarra squad looked like they'd given up the ghost against Parramatta on Monday. The Eels were OK but the Dragons didn't do themselves any favours.
On a side note, I've got a huge opinion of the Dragons' young front-rower Jack Stockwell. He looks like a player of real promise.
