Coote is supposedly in talks with the roosters so you can safely cross him off the list.Manager to coote dragons & roosters both in rebuild mode who would you prefer? Coote i'll take less $ & go with a decent coach so roosters it is.

roosters and Tigers also in talks with Tamou as his wife wants to move back to Sydney.
I suspect if Tamou leaves, the cowboys will have enough cash to keep Coote.

On a side note i have also heard a rumour that Tigers have given Taylor to round 10 to show he should keep his job. Ivan Clearly already in talks as a possible replacement.

Frustrating that we seem to be slow out of the blocks with potential coach replacements and players being available?

mate we are not even in the blocks.
As Coffs Dragon said i doubt we have the funds to pay out Mary and hire another coach - effectively paying 2 salaries.. it would a last resort based on very extreme measures that would see Mary not see out the season..

you would have to see another 4 or 5 playing disasters like we have witnessed the last 2 matches for them even to start considering it.

even a close loss against the Titans where we score a few points would be enough for the players and coach to sprout the usual "we have turned the corner, the team showed improvements" rubbish, which would buy Mary even more time.

Negotiations with Gordon are continuing and should be very close to conclusion. Soon the success of the Club will be of vital interest to Gordon and WIN TV.

Doust and Mary will be in the front line and salaries of both are not included in the salary cap. Soon the Dragons will be back in the black and maybe, just maybe we can be rid of these two dead weights.

I hope you are right Possm as I would not trust Doust. He will manipulating and positioning himself to remain in power as something equal or higher. Chairman of the board perhaps. Mary should be 1st out the door and dissolve the old boys brigade.

You guys are kidding yourselves, you want Bruce Gordon, an Illawarra supporter who has a vested interest in having league played in Wollongong, to take 100% control of the club?

As much as I hate doust, not even he is that stupid to let that happen. Gordon is being offered the illawarra half of the joint venture. Having win corp take 100% control of the joint venture won't happen. This is one of those very rare instances where I would support doust and his cronies.

hypothetical if Mary and Doust get the signatures of Luke Keary and Lachlan Coote, but the Dragons have a shocker this year, does Mary deserve to stay on ?

I have heard it is already a done deal for both players.

I hope you are a better soothsayer than all the other posters who had everyone except Elvis coming to the club and that was only because he was evidently playing a gig at Seagulls.
