I think Dino tweeted it because he got wind of the article.

Just getting on the front foot.

It was a secret for 6 months, had to get out eventually I suppose.

Whether the article hurts our chances if we were genuinely a chance remains to be seen.

Bellamy needs buy-in.
He was so fortunate he had a cam Smith and a cronk and a slater.
3 intelligent football brains who played the lieutenant role perfectly.
Bellamy set the standard and these guys enforced it.
They oversaw and tutored a culture of excellence and accountability.
Without them - and lesser guys like Ryan Hoffman- the storm couldn't have had the success they did.

Who's our Smith and cronk?

Bellamy identified, trained and mentored all these GOATS.

When 3 hall of gamers were gone leaving only Smith he still won a GF.

He brings a culture that is second to none.

He manipulates and bends the rules (and I say that with praise) like no other.

pity that this getting leaked may sink our chances.

we’d be 2023 premiers if he signed on from next year.

Highly doubt it getting leaked hurts our chances - as if Bellamy wouldn't be aware it was coming out.

Probably outsiders anyway, but would be a great get.

He would have the last half back to beat Cronk in a GF premiership winning Chad

Good to see the Sharks can do business with discretion for once. Might actually be getting the front office running well.

Bellamy adds credibility and has been said builds winning culture. No short cuts, ruthless pursuit of excellence. Would certainly help in attracting quality players.

Coaching Director is a different role to Head Coach. From reports he does use Assistant Coaches well so may be able to make that change.

Would also add the Broncos lols of they missed out despite promising the world.

So my understanding is that Morris might stay on as coach under Bellamy? Can't help but think how awesome a move that may become.

I'm genuinely a fan of what Morris has done under trying circumstances.

Should this pan out, I'd love for that to happen.

I'm firmly team Morris and don't want to see flanno again despite always being thankful for his 2016 triumph.

I also believe that it is a done deal. To have negotiated for 6 months without media knowledge is spectacular.

I would say he has verbally agreed which is why the leaks are coming out now, and even Bellamy himself has confirmed a number of details.

Seems crazy to me that they're talking to someone who is currently a head coach currently coaching against us.

What if it has some existing impact on whether Morris is re-signed?

Can't see Bellamy wanting to come anywhere near us, but I think it would be an huge move.

Spot on. Get on the front foot or as James Brown belted Get on the good foot.
All this rumour and innuendo about who, where, why, or how it was leaked it to the media....who gives a flog. The fact this was under wraps for 6 months with positive dialogue between all parties - either means it’s a done deal or he’s pretty close to moving north of the border and maybe this is a update on where the sharks are at.
Regardless of the outcome, incredibly positive news from the club. All the bluster about no signings, terrible coaching, no heart blah blah - I’d rather here no news unless it’s something we have witnessed in the last fortnight.
Get on the good foot people
