Cronulla coach Shane Flanagan is set to be deregistered by the NRL, leaving the club without a coach less than three months before the start of the season.

Sharks officials have been called to a meeting at League Central on Wednesday morning to learn of their coach's fate, which was determined when the commission met on Tuesday.

They will be handed the integrity unit's detailed report into whether Flanagan broke the conditions of his year-long suspension from the game in 2014 in connection to the peptides scandal.

Flanagan has been invited to attend the meeting. Even if he appeals any breach notice, he would be banned from attending Cronulla training and matches until the process is complete.

It is understood any sanction will be indefinite, meaning Flanagan would have to prove that he was a fit and proper person if he wants to coach in the NRL again.

Perpetual chaos. Lock Cronulla in for a bottom 4 spot

Well Barrett will have his pick of offices with all the staff they have got rid of, though he will have to bring his own computer.

Just cant catch a break poor old Sharkies.
Well we could be Parra, or the Dogs but it's the leadership qualities of the NRL to blame for letting most of the clubs being run like a circus due to poor governance structures. The system of clubs being built around power struggles like Cronulla is slowly killing them

If the shark logo could be changed to a Port Jackson shark the other apex marine predators of OZ would be grateful. Doubt any expansion club would pay threppence for the shark brand . Oh hang on maybe the Brissy Bombers would bite!

The bears are probably already compiling the press release!

Sharks board employs the ceo and coach not the nrl. They’ve had some serious shonky snr management over the last decade and even the allegedly good ceo they got potentially cheated the cap!

Just some of the management shonkiness and changes
2007 ceo resigns
2009 ceo resigns under sexual misconduct cloud
2010 ceo resigns over falling out with chairman
2013 ceo resigns over board decision to reinstate drug cheating accused staff
2014 ceo sacked
2015 ceo alleged to have overseen cap cheating
2017 Chairman done for drug possession ceo resigns
2018 New ceo
2018 half backroom staff made redundant after another major financial loss, coach facing deregistration, 3 board members resign

Even I feel sorry for Cronulla fans!

Well if you aren't concerned with the reputation of the club you support then I guess nobody should be surprised that they don't either.

Couldn’t I just go through the broncos over the last 10 years and find just as many incidents.?
Look at this year.
Coaching debacle
Letting that piece of human shit Lodge play for you.
Greg Bird disaster
Kev Walters left
Another year another failure on feild
Annihilated by the Dragons in front of your home crowd.

Andrew Gee sitting next to Bennett when h is meant to be banned from the NRL.

Maybe you should be more concerned about your mob.
