How Fitzgerald can ostracize a club legend like Ray Price is fallable.
Imagine Grant Mayer telling Steve Menzies he wasn't welcome around the club, and that he would move to rescind any idea of a statue being raised in Menzies name?
I'D EFFING lead the lynching mob ! LoL
I always thought Hagan got The Knights up for any occassion. Johns was a great player, but get real people (not you guys - I meant that generally), a coach does MASSIVE things behind the scenes that we don't know - and the Knights were heavy weights for a good many years - with Hagan at the helm).
Parra this year lost their starting 1/2 back for 90% (Tim Smith) of the year, their starting centre for all of the year (Ben Smith), a Back Rower come 5/8 played with serious knee problems (Mateo), and lacked consistent forwards due to injury.
I feel for the guy. The stars weren't aligned in his favor - that's for sure.
That said, I remember at a sponsors function years ago, one of the Eagles admin staff got on the brewskis, and sprouted how Des was the golden child, and that the club were going to stick with him (regardless of results over a few years), as they knew they were on a good thing. I was FILTHY at the time - just FILTHY.
Wow was I made to look like a fool !!!
