“There Will Still Be Players Leaving.” Coach Shane Flanagan Set to Trim the Following Big Names from St. George Illawarra Dragons
St. George Illawarra Dragons fans may need to brace themselves as head coach Ryan Carr has confirmed that a roster shake-up is on the horizon. Following a challenging season, Carr is determined to re-shape the team and bring in fresh talent to strengthen the Dragons’ line-up for next year. And while no one likes to say goodbye, Carr has been clear that some big names could be exiting the squad.
“There will still be players leaving,” Carr said in a recent interview, making it known that he’s willing to make tough calls if it means building a team that’s more competitive and focused. “We’re aiming for a fresh start, and that means making some changes to find the right fit.”
Sources say that star players like Ben Hunt and Moses Mbye may be at risk, alongside Zac Lomax, whose future with the club remains uncertain after a season of ups and downs. Rumors are swirling about Carr’s interest in bringing in younger talent, possibly looking to Jayden Sullivan and Tyrell Sloan to lead the charge, which could spell the end of an era for some veterans.
For fans, it’s an emotional time as they prepare to see some long-time favorites move on. But Carr remains confident that these changes are essential for the Dragons’ future success. “We’ve got to think about where we want to go as a club,” Carr said. “Every decision, no matter how difficult, is about moving forward.”
With announcements expected soon, the 2024 lineup is set to bring both new faces and new hope for St. George Illawarra. Fans will be watching closely to see who stays, who goes, and how Carr’s vision unfolds in the season to come.
