Des looking shaky at Manly

[I Bleed Maroon]

Talking about it on Fox right now. CEO beating the drum saying they need to be "open to change".

Absolutely pathetic from Manly. They are scapegoating the shit out of Hasler to cover their own asses for the Pride Jersey f**k up which was THEIR doing, not Haslers.

 

[JamesRustle]

Barrett is available and keen.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Feel sorry for Dessie. The game could do with more eccentrics like him

 

[mxlegend99]

Barrett is available and keen.

Bloke deserves another chance at head coach. 3rd time's a charm

I agree... just not at my club.

 

[Colk]

Newcastle and the Dragons would be looking at this one with a keen eye I would have thought

 

[soc123_au]

Barrett is available and keen.

Just saw him pull in at Bunnings with a box trailer in tow. Odds on some new lawn chairs are on the list.

 

[Wizardman]

Quite a few people to blame for Manly's demise, yet a person not at fault looks to be paying the ultimate price.

 

[Tweed Titan]

Holbrook/Hasler swap let's make it happen!!!

 

[GreenMachine121]

Not sure why he’s to blame as there are plenty of players who deadset dogged it the last few weeks

Any thought on Kevvie at Brisbane? Or still happy that next year you’ve got Kevvie?

 

[Fangs]

Leave him alone tbh.

 

[wittyfan]

Bring back Tooves.

 

[Captain Apollo]

Barrett is available and keen.

Has he still got the portable outdoor furniture though?

 

[dogslife]

Classic IBM projection.

Kevvies Donkey's bottled it down the stretch just as admirably as Manly.

 

[Perth Red]

Theyve got enough talent they should be making the 8. Buck stops with the coach.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Personally think this is ridiculous. Hasler was top 4 last year and made a prelim; this year had quite a disrupted squad.

Surely this is a Fox beat up to push Flanagan for yet another job; it’s bl00dy embarrassing how hard they ride their mates to get coaches jobs.

Disagree. The Pride fiasco was all on management but Des had to do the presser. All down hill after that.

Josh Shuster's as big as a house these days, that's on Des and a worry for next year.

Except that it's coming from Mestrov.

Someone nailed it when they said management making football decisions is never a good thing.

Not really, half of the squad is pretty average besides a few notables.
This same coach turned them into premiership contenders the year after the Barrett shit show, and is not to blame for the squad implosion, the management is.
