My information is Des will definitely be coaching for 2012 so lets forget all the hand wringing and get on with it.He is not going to Dogs till 2013.
He has won 2 comps while having no respect for the board.The 2012 Dogs roster is something no one mentions also.Who would want that lot.12 months gives him time to work on that(and that includes looking at players from all clubs,not just Manly)and not be under pressure next year with a weak roster. He is also the utmost professional and loves the Manly players.
Player retention will be an issue 2013 onwards but I have high hopes for 2012.Fans should make the most of it as successful periods for clubs come and go.This is our time.
Des is leaving this week and it is no wonder.As a long time member of this site,I have noticed the place is full of wanna be idiots and self professed footy experts.Some of the s**t that comes out is not only embarrassing for the club,but downright pathetic as a sea eagles fan.While you are at it idiots,how about behaving at the games and getting rid of the crappy"garden gnome" and "push it up"crap banners.
Negotiations were completed months ago and there WILL be further staff moves to the Bulldogs and players will follow.By the end of next week and before serious pre-season starts,there will be a well planned and executed series of announcements.
I have taken the liberty of a throw away account and will answer ANY questions from fans with info from DEEP within the club.This move is to help the transition period end sooner rather than later.Key words have peen used in this post for identity detectives..Plebs be on notice.
