Yep. He's talking of The Flange for sure.And they weren't successful.
Dragons coach Shane Flanagan has had his coaching, character and crowning glory – Cronulla’s 2016 premiership win – torn down by a man who played a crucial role in that historic title, James Maloney.
Word has filtered through from Brisbane of Maloney’s brutal take-down of Flanagan, highlighting the tension between the two.
Maloney was speaking at a fundraising lunch for the Sydney-based Pass It On Clothing charity at the Port Office Hotel in Brisbane on the Friday of Magic Round. He was there alongside former NRL players Michael Buettner, Jeremy Latimore and Dallas Johnson.
Maloney was asked on stage about the best coaches he had played under, and he offered Craig Bellamy (Storm), Trent Robinson(Roosters) and Ivan Cleary (Panthers), while saying Flanagan had taught him “f--- all”.
“I didn’t learn a thing off him,” Maloney said.
Maloney also told the interviewer to, “ask Flanno how he felt being my assistant in 2016”, leaving the room of 140 footy fans in stitches.
We asked Maloney about his relationship with Flanagan, and he said he had nothing to do with him.
“Book me for a function and I’ll tell you even more,” he said.
Flanagan did not respond when contacted for comment.
There was no indication Maloney and Flanagan had a troubled relationship during their 2016 premiership run, but Flanagan would often joke about what a pest Maloney was.
Flanagan does not need Maloney’s input right now as the Dragons struggle to play up to their potential.
Previously, two other members of Cronulla’s premiership team, Paul Gallen and Chad Townsend, had a public falling-out – but they have since made up.
He was on the Bye Round with Wade not too long ago. He was pretty open about not recognising the significance of the moment for the club. The gulf between his attitude and Wade’s was enormous.Always had a vibe JM didn’t care if we won or lost. Remember his attempt tackle on the last set the storm had?
He’d won, he was a freelance player, it’s easy to see why he was bbq alone, he made a career of being a wanker. Glad he was our wanker in 2016 though.He was on the Bye Round with Wade not too long ago. He was pretty open about not recognising the significance of the moment for the club.

I think the 2017 Jimmy version had a lot to do with the fact that Flange re-signed the Chad for $100k per season more than what Jimmy was on.
Maloney was not happy that the lesser player was on a great deal more than he. Asked for a pay rise and Flange said no.
Think about it for a minute, in what rugby league team is Chad Townsend worth more dollars than James Maloney?
I agree, not a fan of a player downing tools thoughI think the 2017 Jimmy version had a lot to do with the fact that Flange re-signed the Chad for $100k per season more than what Jimmy was on.

He probably was when Jimmy started his pouting and jersey grabbing.Chad would think he was worth 200k more.
PeptidesBit unrelated but think it’s time for Flanno to look into the possibility of getting a man-bra. Just saying…
