People legitimately believe it's for performance reasons? Seems like Cleary has signed a contract with the Warriors for 16 or 17, Gould has found out and pushed him before he jumped ala Barrett earlier in the year.

Good Riddance. He's the Warrior's problem now. We just weren't getting any better under him. It's Garth Brennan's turn to shine

Ha, you have to be kidding right?

Welcome to 2011 at the Warriors. We let Cleary go for someone without NRL coaching experience. We haven't made the finals since. And if it's Griffin :lol::lol:

2 seasons ago, he turns a rabble around in 2-3 seasons to 2-3 points off a GF. Next year, he loses his spine for the majority of the year and is sacked.

Absolutely f**ked.

There goes McFadden's job, hook is a weird one, I know Gould rates him but he also talks up Garth Brennan.

 

[Rhyno]

Didn't expect it to happen this early. I thought he'd get sacked about mid season

 

[carlosthedwarf]

Not surprised it's Griffin, Gus always talked about how good he was on commentary

 

[shiznit]

Maaan that's harsh...

There must be more to it... If he's fallen out with the club.... I wonder if his son will hang around...

He's supposed to be pretty talented...

Yeah, I remember Gus frothing on him in 2011 and early 2012 especially.

Working under Phil Gould shadow is fraught with danger. Best of luck Anthony, just try to pretend that your coaching and in control.

 

[Brutus]

Mitch Brennan.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Would be odd if it's anyone other than Brennan considering Gus pumps him up every time there's a head coaching role going

Griffin played the worst boring footy at Brisbane, hate to see the panther Cubs dragged down to his style

 

[Dogmatix]

Good call by Gus and the Panthers. Cleary has a 49% win strike rate as coach from a large sample of games. Over a long career he has never quite delivered

 

[Noname36]

Weird.

He will be the Warriors coach a season earlier now and, yes, cut the snakes head off before it can pilfer more players ala Barrett.

Tooves is where my 2 cents are placed.

So we can rule Griffin out.

 

[beave]

Walker Bros on??

 

[Jono078]

No wonder Griffin rejected us.

 

[ElectricEelMan]

If it is Griffin.
Then WOW!

Really it can't be Griffin.
That has Matthew Elliott disastrous written all over it ....

Takes us to top 4 last year with a reasonably big injury toll. Avoids the spoon this year despite nearly every player being sidelined and many of them missing 10+ games. Gets sacked.

Wayne Bennett and Craig Bellamy would have done just as poorly in the same situation. So unless there's another reason it's poor form from the Panthers.

Rubbish...

He had the Warriors for 6 seasons and took them to the finals every year bar the year they had a points deduction and the year sonny fai passed away...

He even took them to a GF...

Considering how they were before and after he was there that's a miracle...
