Hasler back to Manly???

[Harvies elbow]

That is true. There was dissent at Board level at that time and Penn did not have the numbers to get it done.

Putting all the why's and wherefores aside and assuming that the board is now traveling on the same train, I'd like to see it done. But planned so that Des becomes football manager. Let him take over from Larry Dooley as origin coach to keep his hand in and have the run of the footy side of things.
Get back to being the club to give the storm a run for their money.

How can anyone even consider replacing Barrett? Especially when he is on a one game winning streak

 

[Loobs]

Either way - getting Des back is chasing the night.

I very much doubt this would ever happen. The guy has unfinished business at the Bulldogs and won two premierships at Manly so been there done that.

He has all the money and resources he needs to be successful at Canterbury so my guess is he probably thinks he has a better chance of winning another title at his current club than anything we could offer.

 

[bones]

I say yes. Manly culture he does understand.

Thanks Yoda 😛

I think this is just one of those big rumours you hear on Twitter created by people but in reality it's nothing.

A Manly supporter I know well ( GDay Isaac if you happen to read this ) started this very rumour and bombarded the RL journo's about 2 months ago , he then put it on Facebook saying it was a gee up but he'd be interested to see how far it went.

Clearly it did!!

what Ralphie ..... can't handle a little spittle?

I'm a pretty simple bloke so I'm not sure what that means.

Sounds like media spin by des to up the coin the dogs are offering

 

[swoop]

**** him.

 

[Eric Galt]

Matt Elliott is still available.

Matt Elliott is still available.

Too low powered. What about Peter Blunt?

Funnily enough matt elliott predicted we would be bottom 4 this year, so he isn't too bad a judge. I actually like him but I think he is a rubbish coach

 

[Budgie]

I can't see the point of not giving Barrett another year. Injuries have been so bad this year, it's difficult to know what he can do if a lot more is going his way.
The Stewart factor has also made it difficult to make the team his own.
He has my support for another year, which he will, no doubt, be ecstatic to hear!

 

[niccipops]

What if somebody applies the 'Lene/lean' on the Castle?

Give me the Night.
You can throw out all your blues
And hit the city lights
Never mind the weather
We'll be dancing in the street
Until the morning light

Just to confirm. This wasn't a serious suggestion.

 

[the mauler]

Matt Elliott is still available.

With good reason. He's ****.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Just to confirm. This wasn't a serious suggestion.

You've got me!

 

[Loobs]

Give me the Night.
You can throw out all your blues
And hit the city lights
Never mind the weather
We'll be dancing in the street
Until the morning light

We'll be dancing in the street
Until the morning light back ended contracts ruin us all over again
