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

[insert.pause]

Sounds like Flanagan didn't learn his lesson in 2014, I'm sure we are all shocked and stunned...

 

[Generalzod]

I’m shocked so is my shih Tsu

 

[carcharias]

Flano a board member?

Geeze it’s hard to keep up.

 

[JamesRustle]

Flange to be walked?

Sharks 2011-18 seasons*

 

[JJ]

The Roosters and Broncos really should run workshops on this shit, so the amateurs can keep up

 

[Perth Red]

The Roosters and Broncos really should run workshops on this shit, so the amateurs can keep up

It would be a short workshop
Lesson 1 dont admit or confess your sins
Lesson 2 Pay off the patsy before he can be interviewed by the NRL
Lesson 3 dont keep a record of your indiscretions
Lesson 4 Dont fire someone who knows what shits been going on

Here endeth the lesson.

 

[Exsilium]

“Who knows what they’ll find”

Immediately following this statement the lawyers in the shire threw their notes in the bin and let their heads sink into their hands.

The cash-strapped Cronulla Sharks have been forced to sack 10 staff members to slash costs across the business amid genuine fears of the club’s long term viability.

Under directions from the board, chief executive Barry Russell handed out the redundancies to employees from commercial, digital/media and events on Tuesday.

The staff members will leave before Christmas.

The Daily Telegraph understands the Sharks finished last season with a $3 million loss, despite a $13 million grant from the NRL.

The sacking will save around $1.5 million next year.

NRL boss Todd Greenberg and his finance staff are monitoring the situation closely.

The Sharks have no major sponsor for 2019. Only one of four sponsor positions on the Sharks’ jersey has been sold.

Revenue from unit sales at the development site next to Shark Park has been used to clear debts of more than $6 million rather being invested into football operations.

Cronulla’s financial plight is of a huge concern to the NRL.

The club is also under investigation for salary cap rorting in 2015 and revelations of a fake invoice scam and bogus $100,000 loan to players.

The club is still paying off the loan and facing a huge fine from the NRL.

The Sharks have been unable to offer coach Shane Flanagan a coaching extension because of the financial crisis.

The sackings leave the Sharks with an administration staff of only 12 and all about 25.

They have to compete against teams like the Brisbane Broncos who employ 80 staff members.

The NRL is refusing to offer Cronulla any financial assistance.

The situation is so diabolical that a recent request for new computer equipment from the coaching staff was rejected.

There are suggestions the NRL side will be forced to play under the salary cap next year to save more costs although it will not affect the signing of champion Kiwi half-back Shaun Johnson, who will be getting the money from Valentine Holmes’ departure.

The Daily Telegraph is seeking comment from the Sharks and the NRL.

There hasn't been much juicy stuff to click on lately.

Hayne, Val, salary cap, financial troubles , player violence.

All this stuff is just becoming par for the course. Boring. They need new material to blow our minds.
