I wonder if a loss this weekend will bring an end to Griffin's career at the Dragons.....

You would think it would take a few more losses but due to all the outside noise, I'm not sure. If they signed Hasler or someone else available to take over immediately, why would they keep Hook around for the rest of the season?

Really. What was his major prob at the Sea Eagles for their board to sack him. We dont want another loser if it was poor player management.

Optimistic. Without JDB to stiffen our defense, we are not up to the Sharks quality, specially now Hynes is back for them. Yet again the Sharks bosses are conceding their defense is well under what it was last season. So may be a points fest.

I think it was to do with other than coaching ability.

That answered my question why Hasler left Manly. I like that too, not taking any interference from FO. Hope then our board has mellowed since Alberts demise. Is that loser Doust still with us?
Does not sound like we have a replacement coach lined up for when we sack ours mid year. So folks we are stuck with this poor excuse for this season at the very least.

Why would Flanno leave us for whatever reason then want to return. Surely FO had discussed his chances of being next coach before he left, otherwise he'd have stayed. With our culture at an all time low, perhaps Flannos past dark history at the Sharkies was the last straw for our board to take..

When they have no idea, they just revert to the default nonsense other media pundits in the same boat.

Good to have a new face on The Dragons Lair
BDC.A good analysis. Out of the three formers, Young, Hornby, Ryles, my vote is Ryles. Cut his coaching teeth at two strong clubs, his first head coach role and at his old club, three perfectly valid reasons why his appointment may just work. Deano may now be a bad choice with his old man forced out of his beloved club. Dont know much about what Hornby has been doing.

RedVHeartbeat !Don't forget Trent Barrett, who I would expect to come up in any coaching discussions (and would hopefully be immediately dismissed as a serious option).

Trent Barrett has had two chances as a head coach and failed terribly. Seems to be an excellent assistant coach.Thanks

My information is that if Griffin goes he was on about $475k a year, any replacement would want substantially more because of the current state of the squad and more importantly the board. Don't forget we have a split boardroom so whether they can all come to a consensus on the next coach will be interesting to see

The good coaches are on well over 1mil as far as I know. I think Bellamy is on about 1.5mil a year.

Firstly welcome, secondly I hope you tip outcomes of games better than this current mob
and lastly I believe that Ryles is up there with Young but my view is we need an outsider such as Hasler. I have never liked an ex player coaching the club but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I agree but in saying that the squad that he has assembled at this time is not a top 8 squad. I'm hoping that the 2 young props from Manly will be able to cut their teeth sometime later this season but alas after we are out of contention

Hasler for me as well! Though I can see Ryles has serious credentials.Firstly welcome, secondly I hope you tip outcomes of games better than this current mob
