Another addition to Manly's staff!

"Chief medical officer Bassam Moses has gone to GWS, while head physiotherapist James Rahme has joined Des Hasler at Manly. Players are not happy to lose these two medicos. The Bulldogs have ranked highly in keeping players on the field and healthy over the past five years."

GWS?

GWS?

Little bit of karma is this move, getting the Dogs medico with a good track record.

They probably met their match when Foz turned up to their clinic

What an incredible turnaround from having no "Manly" staff and a rudderless front room that appeared to have zero interest in the club being successful.

I wonder what was the driving force behind it. Was it Gorman? Did Penn finally take offence to the NRL's blatant anti-Manly campaign? Was it the NRL slur against Bozo?

I guess it doesn't really matter why or how, just that we are now finally on the track we should always follow.

It must be in huge part due to Des. Which further underlines how out of his depth Barrett was.

I think Lyall put together a strong business plan and influential argument to the board that demanded investment and resources. Getting Des just reinforced this - invest or die!

Don’t forget recruitment had commenced for many of these roles but were put on hold when a certain person sought a release and/or resigned

Don't we all champion hahaha

 

[Harvies elbow]

I think they realised 'He who cannot coach' was a dud halfway through his tenure and cut off supply.
Good...

Thanks, I hadn’t heard about them previously either. Vfl right?

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Anyone know if James Rahme is related to another returning to the fold, the well respected gear steward Sam Rahme??

Sadly Manly has 400k being paid to a man who can't/won't find himself another job 😕

Yes, it’s his younger brother.
He was at Manly in 2011 and followed Des to the dogs.
I went to his Physiotherapy clinic by chance back in 2012.

Which is why we all love him, we can belt out any lyric on any song and no one would know if it's right or wrong!
