Flanno Walks....

All he needs to say is that he gave all the information to the nrl and Asada.
He will not be making further comment on the matter. As far as the sharks, the nrl and asada are concerned the issue has been dealt with and the matter finalised.
We are leading into a new exciting season of rugby league where for the first time in more than 12 months myself and the Cronulla Sharks football club can focus on football and football only.
If you would like to ask a football related question, please do so and I will be more than happy to answer you.

Seriously??? Walking out. Get a grip you selfish whiney bitch. Media bans will keep the nrl in the eastern states of Australia and the Sharks as a park football operation. Suck it up and use the ongoing media presence to sell our sponsors. Sell the players, don't whine. Be smart and place a f**king fridge full of oak in the background. Whenever a question about peps and Assad is asked, go off on a tangent and speak about barbas kicking game, Holmes speed or some charity work they have all done.

We are idiots.

I agree with all that. It was handled very poorly and just gave journos more fuel. Given his reaction as if journos won't continue to try and provoke him at every opportunity.

If he's just ignored the questions there would be no story. Instead we're front and centre of the 6:30 news. Again.

I'm normally in favour of the tough decisions our club makes, probably bowing to the media pressure.

However, in this instance, I thought Flanno handled it ok. He is moving on & he's making it known.

I'm tipping his attitude will benefit him & us in the long run, although there might be short term pain.

Switching over to Ch 10 sport shortly to see how they report it & see the knob who pushed the boundaries.

I should have said I absolutely agree with this.

Well played Flanno.

Time to put these merkins in the media into line.

Hopefully the Daily Telegraph is banned from future press conferences like that Channel Ten merkin.

Let's get it on the Record. Murdoch press is our enemy. We need to stand up to the bastards. Boycott their bullshit excuse for news and their war against the ABC.

He's the same bloke who was stirring things when Flanno went to watch his kid play. Like a mainstream TV version of the Three Amigos from the paper. Moronic.

Rothfield has no scruples in my opinion if he claims to support the sharks. The daily telegraph is our eneney and yet he is a fully fledged member of their staff. Perhaps he has a mortgage and is compromised for no other media outlet would have have him. He is a mercenary with only his immediate financial dues of importance and therefore any sense of fair and balanced reporting is at the mercy of his master who happens to be the sensationalist Murdoch press.
