SACK DES HASLER!!

[Mark from Brisbane]

Our depth players are well off the mark and injuries just brought it all to the surface. Poor recruitment and retention decisions come back and haunt you. The whole joint needs a real shake up!

Des has signed his own death warrant if this Foran malarkey comes true. If it's confirmed I'm on the sack Des bandwagon.

""Malarkey". What a great word.
My mother used to use it when I made excuses for my bad behaviour.

Now that we have all this $$, is Des bringing over Tolman?

Oh please no.. unless he's cheap as and replaces morgan boyle as depth

Sorry Biff, but bringing Tolman over would be the worst signing since 1947. Even typing his name just then sent a shudder up my spine.

Not sure what Morgan has done wrong this year? I like him for the money he would be on.

Felt that he has been a little hard done by at times this year selection wise.

Him along with Guaca & Tof. Can NOT work out what is going on here.

Thank you for your Candor.. i liked boyle he didn't do anything wrong. Just saying we are now 2 props down and need depth. He has experience and can play big minutes but this year he was pretty shyte. See who Dasler brings in

Depth? We need first graders ffs!

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Depth? We need first graders ffs!

Who can we buy really? Id like jack hetherington tolman to replace boyle on a cheap deal is the depth im talking about. Id prefer boyle tbh but he's gone

The problem is unless there are contracts broken there’s very few actual first graders on the market.

 

[Manly Tragic]

The NRL were suppose to fix this but of course nuda!

I was joking, but unfortunately it's not out of the question. Perhaps also Greg Eastwood will join us. After all it was Des that put him on the giant Dogs contract.

Des Hasler record at the Dogs:

2012: 1st overall (Grand Final)
2013: 6th overall (Elim Final - round one)
2014: 7th overall (Prelim Final - round three - to play for the GF)
2015: 5th overall (Semi Final - round two)
2016: 7th overall (Elim Final - round one)
2017: 11th overall (None)

So whatever players he had through that period didn't do too badly.

Hope we dont end up singing a dirge.

Might have to merge the Splurge and Purge threads.

That great record does not mean he did not make mistakes.
Remember some guy called Damien Cook. Saw nothing in him and got rid of him.

reckon it's a bit of ying and a bit of yang but cannot argue that those teams have better recruitment than us... it is amazing how those clubs continually slot players seemlessly into the side tho and largely I reckon it is because they are given simple, achievable tasks by the coach... the only time i can remember players struggling in those teams is when they come into a position like half-back or 5/8 because they need to run the attack (which is more complicated)...
I definitely agree that recruitment is huge but hs there ever been a player that left the roosters or storm and actually played BETTER at their new club?
