Take a walk son, the sharks don't need your support anymore!!!!

Quite to the contrary, I think they need all the support they can get.

Negative ramifications? None
Positive ramifications? f**king plethora!!
For starters, hopefully there will be sharks football being played that is worthy of highlights.
Secondly, hopefully, there will be sharks football worthy of televising.
This = happy sponsors & lots of money.
& Dragon Slayer, sorry but you are a liar or ill infomed. There are no unhappy major sponsors, anymore.
They have pressured out the most important issue.

next?!

As shown in recent years by the Cowboys and Souths, leaving it untill just before/after the start of a season is not a good time to get rid of a coach. Regardless of it being a good/bad decision - if they were going to get rid of Anderson now was the time to do it.

Now - if there are also problems behind the scenes - again looking as the Cowboys and more recently Souths - changing coachs is not going to make a great improvement - especialy if the new coach was involved in the decision. As a Cowboys fan i believe the Club has improved greatly since the old 'disruptive' element was removed (and it wasn't the coach). With Souths it seems that hasn't happened (not completly anyway).

If there are problems with a Coach, by all means get rid of him (and be prepared to pay) BUT if there are other problems then pretending the Coach was responsible for them and everything will be better because he is gone is not a good thing to do.

I do hope the Sharks improve next season.

i disagreed with a lot of what anderson did

and i dont know why i am saying this - but i think the club has made a monumental blunder in sacking anderson

that's my gut feeling and i cant back it up with any real reasoning

but i think now we're going to drift along performing mediocre under raper and we will struggle to make the 8 just like saints do each year

i think CA would have given it a better go

Well, I guess the outcome has made some of us very happy. Not me. Still, I'll still be there cheering for the Sharks. But I hope any success we have next season isn't overshadowed by an ongoing saga in the courtrooms. What do we have to do to win a comp? I doubt that anybody in the area has a clue?

You really have no idea on this one Reefy. If you can't see the problems that now lie ahead you are just wasting space on here. I can see a few positives but not as many as the negatives. We have a slight chance of coming through this but I think it will get worse before it gets better.

Now that the decision has been made I am going to go ahead and throw my support behind Raper. With the side Ando has put together, he should have a reasonably successful first season. Our hopes for the first premiership are indeed resting on his shoulders now. Good luck Stuart.

 

[millersnose]

oh well

we can all, in years to come, look back at the anderson tenure with fondness and call it our finest hour :lol:

 

[Houdini]

If the sacking of Anderson is the first step towards extinction, then surely if fans stop paying the bills then that is the second step.

I think so too. We all still love our team right? So I for one will still be there supporting them every week, just like I did last year and the year before that.........

 

[blacktip-reefy]

Actually that is exactly how Anderson supporters work.
They pledge loyalty to him first & the people that pay their wages, give them a career or a team to cheer for second.
The are hypocrites like Anderson himself. Terminated every contract he has ever had in his life prematurely, but now he is on the receiving end he has a sore heart & wants to take legal action.
Go ahead loser, take legal action & become the pariah of the rugby league world.
Hey even Tricky Trindell kept getting starts here & there, perhaps there is a club somewhere desperate enough.

We can't afford to pay - the club does not have the money to pay out his contract, let alone the legal bills and damages.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

Says who Mr Sharks financial director & spreader of complete lies.

Get ready to eat your words as I think there will be even more good news early next year.

DS, Ali, BS, you all make some good points.

One thing Dragon Slayer - Dean Treister and Kimmorley never had a spat. There was a minor disagreement between Nick Graham and Noddy. It came about when Nick expressed his concerns that, as a senior player and alternate playmaker, if he saw something on and called for the ball, Noddy would ignore it and go his own way. Instead of working through the issue, Anderson stuck like glue to Brett and said 'I'm not the one out there, Brett is, and whatever calls he makes must be obeyed.' So much for teamwork.

Also for the record, MANY sponsors are close to Dean and his family and business connections. Many of them were ready to walk when Dean got shafted, but some patronising backslapping from the Board kept them around - Along with an encouraging word from Dean, who, despite his departure, told some of these unhappy supporters to stick around. I know this to be true, as I was present when one of these informal meetings occured soon after Dean played his last game, in Divvy, against Newcastle, so long ago in 2003.

It must have been a HUGE spat between Treister and Kimmorley, the way they were walking their dogs together during the week and chatting away at the bottom of the street they both live in on gunnamatta bay certainly points towards " huge disgust" at eachother !

Whenever I saw Kimmorley arrive at Shark Park before a game it was always with Treister in the car, or Treister driving, they are neighbours for crying out loud and still appear to be good mates .
