That raises an interesting point, J Justadragon, for when the club eventually elects to appoint the next head coach. I’d hope that near the top of the criteria is a proven ability to develop players, the young ones and the ones who still have another level in them.
They were all supposed to do it George and they never do because they want to win here and now. The problem with Flanno is he is not winning here and now and not winning into the future either.

Article in the DT behind a paywall. Manly's owners, the Penn family and 2 other minority shareholders haven't been "dipping into their pockets to help the club out". They have lent the club money and are getting interest on the loans. They have made huge profit from owning the club and stand to make still more if or when they decide to sell their shares.

So I was as pissed as anyone when Dragons decided to name the COE after some grubby billionaire 🐖 but maybe if he is "really" putting money into the club, like giving it money not looking to make a profit, it wasn't the worst thing. Even societal leeches like billionaires can go some way to redeeming themselves.
