Sharks cap superthread - latest: NRL clears Flanagan to assistant coach from 2020

[Exsilium]

The NRL goes on about the importance of its image and perception yet it will find ways to reinstate wife beaters, drug cheats, systematic cheaters and people who continually find ways to bring the game into the spotlight.

Classic NRL

At least Todd got to play the big tough guy again, bit like with Burgess... 'I'm in charge, and you must do x, y and a, because said so....'

I reckon Todd was bullied at school, probably by the footy team lads. This is his way of getting revenge and feeling like he's the big, tough kid now.

Heavily rumoured heading to either Bondi or Kogarah

So... Roosters or sharks?

 

[bad boy bubby]

Ha
He sent emails while banned.... emails relating to his own job.

Any proof he undermined anyone at his own club?.., remembering the emails were replies from him to his own stupid bosses.

Don’t forget mate that he also was contacting players to play for the following season.
Look, Flanno pushed boundaries to win. He crossed boundaries to win, at times to the detriment of the club.
The Sharks are not a powerhouse club, if they were he would have got the same treatment as Bellamy, ie not much.
The Sharks did need to move away from him but in the process be prepared for more seasons like this years. Time will tell if Morris is the best option moving forward, I hope he is.

Perth Red, you want to know who was behind the salary cap mess? The same guy who was behind the asbestos mess at Brooky. There is a reason he has been assigned to the outer reachers. His name didn’t get dragged through the mud, maybe he turned rat and got away with the full punishment that others have copped in the same situation..... just a thought.

Oh he sent emails
But they were sent with the best intentions for success at the Sharks.
The club board knew it was going on.
They instigated the communication.

So to suggest he would undermine a head coach is complete bullshit.

Like someone mentioned
Bellamy 4 years in charge of the team who systematically rorted the cap.
No penalty.

It’s hardly a fair comp.

100% they instigated it, he followed through and went further, I would daresay the board gave him the green light to do that too. Both to blame and both have been punished.
That board is now gone, Flanno is suing the club.
His son left the club because of it all. Time for everyone to move on with it.
The Flange would be a great pick up for any club.

He used to play for the Dragons
They need a coach with half a clue

Yep and the best thing about that is when he'd had a few beers at the club he didnt mind telling people how much he hated them. It'd be perfect!!

 

[taipan]

Hes been shown to have behaved unethically twice now, he is still a good fit for the sharks.

"Unethically." I wonder which club south of the border down Mexico way, the team you follow, with the double set of books behaved in an ethical way, over a few years .The NRL believed so.

Wasn’t Flano Bellamy’s side kick for a while?

Couldn’t agree more and worse than that they allow Mary to be a coach (chocking as I call him that)

He is a dope, don’t bother

Don't know TBH.
All I do know we stuffed up when Flanno and certain board members were involved.And the Southern mob stuffed up with their CEO involved and who else there have NFI.Just suspicions.

Flano was Bellamy’s side kick at Origin for 3 years

 

[Quicksilver]

None of these people care about the club. In the midst of the biggest scandal ever in Rugby League they decide to flout the rules. All while the club is hanging on to existence by the skin of its teeth.

Shameful selfishness.

Can I now use the "smoking gun" description.
Winchester 73 and his sidekick Colt 45.

I guess you have to be in charge of both drug cheating and salary cap cheating and then ignore a punishment and do what you like to be considered a real danger to the game lol

When I don't include all who have crossed the line, then you can bitch on..You came here self righteously calling the kettle black

I suggest every player involved has a public black mark against him for the rest of his life, the club was fined a large amount of money ,lost sponsors, total running into millions.They have been screwed for at least $300k in the salary cap for 2020.The guilty coach has lost his NRL coaching gig ,that's a huge financial hit to him.
The same "chemist 'involved was the same guy involved in Essendon, you know the code you say is above reproach.(also a real danger to the game).

As to your mob, did all players pay back the extras ,did other senior people who may( who knows BTW) well have been involved escape punishment? Signing two contracts? Yes indeed LOL.

Where does everyone think he’ll end up?

I’m thinking Dragons. It makes sense in a number of ways. I’ve had a few people mention it to me.
