I heard the interview nothing surprising, said Hook took the decision as well as someone can losing their job. Did state changing the coach will not solve things without a lot of hard work to be done by a lot of people to turn the results around. Did state the Board is not split and work well together, there is no St George v Illawarra (as you would expect him to say) he also said they are working through the applicants for the coaching role & do not want it to linger on too long & would hope a decision will be made & announced in the next 3-4 weeks.

Thanks for that SAP58 and Jeff. Most of us know that changing the coach will not solve things without a lot of hard work involving the right people. Yes, saying that St George v Illawarra Board members are not split is something you would expect Webb to say.

So Webb thinks that a decision to be made and announced as to the successful applicant to take over as head coach is 3-4 weeks away is reasonable considering that 1) At least Hook is now gone 2) The interim coach Carr is able to select players and make adjustments in the next few weeks to see what would be the formula for the longer term and to enable any "prospective" coach to see what will be needed for next year and 3) The Board has that time to make sure that the next person to be appointed as Head Coach of the Dragons will be without fail someone definitely who can be successful.

thanks for the summary sap58.. I think it would be good for everybody if the new coach was announced sooner than 3 weeks

No they haven't, but this was reported earlier today:

I don't think NRL360 should not be talking about a matter before the courts. Leave that to reputable news agencies that only report on what is happening, and not offer an editorial.

Exactly. Paul Kent's behaviour is nothing whatsoever to do with rugby league. Even the connection due to the fact that he reports and opines about the game is very loose. After all, he reports and opines about other sports as well. For crying out loud.

Most of the shit Paul Kent talks about has nothing to do with rugby league. He's been a toxic parasite for decades. just nice to see a bit of karmic balance

Not ideal, but seriously-NRL 360 badgered this point to death last night. Why carry on the next day?

Agree. Not to mention that the assertions regarding the timing of communications are all wrong anyway. Fair dinkum, they report falsehoods and then feign outrage at them. These people aren't journalists at all; they're just bullshit artists of the highest order.

Hook and the players, and the rest of the human race, have been advised of developments in his demise in minute detail, in real-time, for months on end. These same quasi-journalists have been banging-on about it the entire time. None of them reported any actual facts or revelations during the whole protracted saga. Then they carry on like stuck pigs about it. Just unadulterated bullshit from a pack of ill-educated, lazy bludgers vying for top-dog in the public melodrama stakes.
