Mark Gasnier

[BennyV]

Gasnier wasn’t nearly as bad as the others. His criticism and perceived ‘bias’ against the Dragons is because he, like many of us, wants to see them do better than what they are.

I would not mind it if SGI employed him to provide personal coaching to our centres.

I cant believe this thread is a page and a half in before someone states the bleeding obvious.

If we are talking Fox commentators, Corey Parker, thick as a brick and about as interesting as one too...

I’ve always been of the opinion that gasnier has had a hidden agenda against the dragons ever since he’s started with fox... always tipping against the dragons and never positive

He supported Canberra as a kid, and never shared the same love for the Dragons like his uncle.

No surprise there.

Ditto that muppet Greg Alexander.

Alexander’s hatered for Saints stems back to when Steve Linnane tried to souvenir one of his eyeballs in 1986.

Show some respect.

Of the 2010 grand final team Gasnier is my least favourite left us high and dry twice after signing long term deals, costing us the likes of Costigan, Smith & J. Morris. I always got the impression he was only in it for the money and nothing more.

The recent (below linked) relatively recent article[1] indicates that Mark has to fund his Senior Counsel legal representative's professional fees in the New South Wales Supreme Court.

The same article also indicates that he (and brother, Dean) are the owners of a company known as Gasnier Pty Ltd.

The (below linked) webpage[2] indicates that the Australian Securities and Investments Commission ('ASIC') have currently begun the process of striking off Gasnier Pty Ltd (i.e., 'deregistering' the company). Gasnier Pty Ltd's ABN on the above mentioned webpage matches the ABN on the ASIC's (below linked) webpage[3].

If Mark no longer works at Fox Sports, has substantial Senior Counsel legal fees to fund, and his company is currently being deregistered by the ASIC; perhaps he is in need of employment?

As such, perhaps Mark can be employed as our next Head Coach?

You mean his uncle?

You mean his uncle?

Probably.

Just like the Dragons board who are to blame for resigning Coach Mary. So to our these broadcasting companies.
Far too many just retired players, who are at best yoboo knockabout blokes. Hodges is the worst, and closely followed by Lockyer. I scratch my head at the expert comments provided by Walters.
I also used to think Nine were terrible with biased and conflict of interests. But Fox has gotten just as bad.
Frankly anyone involved any way shape or form with the one of the 2 teams playing should not be commenting or calling the game.

Linnanae managed to achieve the biggest suspension ever at that time and it was indeed a dark moment in our history.
No doubt lots of players from that era that went on to commentate had copped some foul treatment but Alexander just hates us as does that other idiot who he often co commentates with Warren Smith.

You can understand Alexander’s loathing, but Smith is a plain ol’ king prawn ...all meat with shit for brains. Incidentally, this description reminds me of someone who enjoys stalking on this very forum.

NO. We have had enough 1st year apprentice coaches

 

[muzby]

Probably.

It’s been a bad day for you..

Anasta and Brandy are critical of Dragons because they call it as they see it. They call out Ben Hunt as not good enough because he is....well....NOT GOOD ENOUGH!
Kevin Walters is the worry, he seems like a complete dimwit to me.

They were giving it to the Dragons in spades long before Hunt was ever signed.
They plus that wanker Smith have death ridden our team almost from the moment they arrived in the commentary box even to the point of laughing and ridiculing us even before Mc Gregor (which we don't see of other teams) so it has been a long standing practise and quite frankly their almost total bias against us pisses me off.

Well thanks for your post! I was always being told by neighbours that I am too one eyed and bios. I could never see their point of view mainly because, those commentators never seemed to have the same attitude towards other teams.

Not as bad as waking to that rusted on visage you have on your shoulders. Your avatar is a selfie, right?

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

I don’t mind Gasnier at all, he’s quite good probably second only to Ennis for Fox.
