The St George Illawarra Dragons will commence their annual review of the football department next week.

Dragons Chief Executive Brian Johnston said that while the club undertakes a review at the end of every year, it will take on added significance given the Dragons' disappointing 2019 campaign.

"Nobody at the club is happy with how the Dragons have performed and that's extended to all our stakeholders including members and supporters," Johnston said.

"We are committed to reviewing all aspects of our football department to ensure improvement in 2020."

Long-time rugby league administrator and former coach Phil Gould has agreed to take part in aspects of this process.
