When asked if the club was better off without him, he replied am I better off without the club.

[Stagger eel]

by the way, this job will always be a tough gig whenever a certain person lurking in the backround pulls the strings and won't let go...unless of course we offer the job back to Andrew Hill..

Ww need a separate investigation into all this negative rumour and innuendo that swirls around our club.

I agree. I have no idea where it comes from but it sounds like some people do.
We should be looking at getting rid of the people who stir up all this stuff.

Duncans only concern now is for Pirtek. And they are getting great exposure now with all these articles.

So he'd be hoping these articles continue throughout the NRL season?

 

[Tony Bongo]

There was a lot of fear mongering going on with people claiming this was going to get much, much worse. It seems it was wishful thinking on their part since there hasn't been anything new that has come to light for days now.
No doubt Hadley and those heading this witch hunt will keep plowing the same ground they did last week. Instead of sowing seeds for the future they keep digging up the same dirt looking for a gold nugget. So far all they have is a handful of dust.

Dunno mate.

I don't think any of us do.

I wouldn't get too confident about that...

I said 'so far'. If something else comes to light or any allegations are confirmed then that could naturally change my view on things. For now, as is the case in Australian law, everyone is innocent until proven guilty.

Well this isn't Australian law on this forum sorry Tony. It's guilty until proven otherwise around here.

That's fantasy. In this country the media can smear you until you have so much baggage that you are a political liability/unemployable.

It's been happening at all levels of politics for years and it's been happening at our club, on both sides of the fence.

Everyone may be innocent until proven guilty in Australian law technically, but in the eyes of the public that isn't the case in regards to serious crimes. People have the right to form an opinion based on the information presented to them and you'd be naive and gullible not to form an opinion.

That's true and not many have the balls to stand up against a lynch mob nor do many have what it takes to sustain constant attacks without it taking it's personal toll. As you have pretty much pointed out, even if no serious allegations are proven, the accusations may do their job anyway in making PO's continued employment untenable.
When it comes to our clubs politics (and to a broader extent our countries) people aim to gain a position by trying to prove how bad their opponent is rather than simply standing on their own merits. This is because most don't actually do much for those they are trying to represent.

Of course I have an opinion but I don't have any judgments to go with it until I have sufficient evidence.
Forming an opinion is just that - an opinion. I don't judge people based on opinions though. If you want to then go right ahead. That's what I call naive and gullible.
