When it comes to league no one cares about morals.
Anyway this could all be BS.
Wasnt it Weidler who said Lockyer was unhappy at the Broncos. :roll:

He also claimed that Graham Murray racially taunted Matt Bowen
and the number of rumoured sigings he's gotten wrong are far too lengthy and numerous to go into.

Campbell played fullback back in 1997 at the Chargers. He can again next year



No he won't. The club should always support the coach over the players. You don't want the players running the club - "I don't want to train", etc.

I know what you're saying but Orford is a key player in the team for the next four years and Des is a coach that won't have a job is we don't perform this year.

no way on Gods earth Manly will release, if infact he does want one..
The voice of reason.

Hasler is useless and will be shown the door a long time before Orford.

Mal Reilly was sounded out a long time ago ............

I think he's signed up for another two years. Don't think it matters much though, it'd cost the a bit but coaches aren't hard to get rid of.
I'm still willing to give him a go but he has to show something this year or he's gone.

End of 2007 I think. But given the circumstances in which he was signed, I doubt it would be as much as you mob are paying Mr Smith, or are abou to pay Mr Hagan.

nor should have been and I share the same thoughts with Orford.

I agree, Manly went all out trying to get Orford they would be crazy to just let him go to another NRL club.

ok, if something blows over in the coming week and Hasler is paid out than the club are looking at 3 sets of payouts in the space of a fortnight..:?

crisis anyone??

I'm actually getting a little fed up with these prima-donna footballers throwing their weight around the place as if they own it..

Don't you just love the bagging frenzy of a player who used to play for a club's team?

Heaven forbid, they're all scum of the earth if they sign a contract to play elsewhere, prior to that they should be Dally M, Origin player, are a real great bloke etc etc. :lol:

Now that Manly can afford a coach, Hasler wont last long. Even if theres no substance to this story.

When Ox was here I hoped he would get rep honours and such cos on his day he can win big games and but my biggest gripe was the fact that he fart arsed around with one year contracts and when his number was up he ummed and ahhed for 3 months when he had, in fact, already made up his mind. We tried to throw money at him (was the biggest offer Storm has made) and he still ummed and ahhed and then he flew north and as a result we lost out on getting Benny Ross when he was within a whisker of signing for us.

It's a bit of a sh*tty thing to do to a club thats looked after you. He'd prolly still be pulling Bears and playing reserve grade for the Bears if Noddy hadn't left the Storm. Kimmorley did more for my club in 3 years than Orford could manage in 5....which is why I won't boo Kimmorley when the sharkies play @ olympic.
