Or will we once again see special treatment for the Manly scum?



Doesn't he have to claim they cheated or were biased in some way to get fined?

As far as I know he said they were unprofessional in comparison to the game they adjudicate. Which is technically correct.

I thought there was some kind of precedent set with Stuart and Fittler earlier in the year. Could be wrong.

Technically correct?? Tony Williams put down must was extremely unprofessional. That try would have won the game. Maybe Hasler should have went in and told the media how disgraceful that was. He is clasping at straws. His team is not going well. His coaching does not suit the up tempo style the two refs bring, and so he is looking for excuses. Thats the difference between him and great coaches. Great coaches, like Bennett, can adjust their coaching styles to adapt to how the game is evolving.

Hasler is bloody lucky that refs don't penalise Manly for slowing the play-the-ball down. They are deliberately the worst at this, it spoils the game- but they have been getting away with it for years.

So, Des - stop bitching and appreciate the fact you still get a leg-up from the refs - especially at Brokevale.

Gallop was investigating Haslers comments trying to find a way to stick a $10k fine on him, but after several hours of deliberation concluded that Des was actually right and that the officials really are farked.

In the past coaches have been fined for almost always insinuating that referees are targeting their team, or biased against their team in some way.

Hasler, reading from his prepared statement made sure he didn't do that.
