Ivan Cleary opens up on Penrith return and controversial Tigers exit

[Cairnstigers]

I hope Penrith fail dismally next year and beyond
What an absolute disgrace of a coach they have
I wonder if the penrith players will buy into his crap
Absolutely no credibility
How can this coach expect his players to buy into what he is telling them
I think he is going to find it really hard to get their respect and I only hope his actions at the tigers come back to bite him big time

The pressure is on you now Ivan
Are you ready for it

I can only thank you Cleary for one thing
And that is Madge

 

[TimmyB]

Good chance there are tears before bedtime I think.

I'll certainly be around to enjoy them if there are.

Nathan Cleary will spend majority on the summer in rehabilitation with ankle surgery set to keep the Panthers halfback on the sidelines for the next three months

Yeh - thats the impression we all got!! Unbelievable - keep convincing yourself Ivan.

 

[supercoach]

Amazing How Ivan can sit down and give a long interview and give his spin on Clearygate, yet he could only give us a 30 second prepared statement.

The guy is a total low life, but time to look forward and fingers crossed karma will strike

Technically it was mutual in the end. There was a mutual agreement to release him. But he’s choosing to look at it in the most basic terms. There was nothing mutual about it when the story first broke. If the club had its way, the mess would never have been made and he’d still be here. It only became “ mutual” when it became clear he was toxic to the club. Whose he kidding?

Seems like wherever he goes he leaves “unfinished business”…... I wonder how many love children he has....

Presumably not many if “unfinished business “ is his go?

Well put, Nelson.
Yes, "Unfinished Business" is the lifelong motto of the premature ejaculators

It was only mutual because WT management was able to secure a replacement with better credentials. If they hadn't been able to do that he'd still be here.

He is delusional if he thinks anyone is buying his version of the impact of his actions. No written statements now, seems happy to push his new agenda.
Just have no time for him now, and yet this time last year thought he was the best thing to happen to our club in long time! Fooled me once.

 

[jadtiger]

I have no doubt that as far as he is concerned his "explanation" justifies his decision.It may work for him but to most supporters(not just WT supporters) it is delusional in the extreme

Doubt it very much..

Yeah, in the same way it would be if your Mrs decided to move into prostitution and you decided to move on.

The panthers PR team is in full swing.

I imagine they will spend a fair bit of the off season spinning public opinion. Cleary will have to show his face when the season starts.

 

[fibrodreaming]

Cleary claims in all seriousness that he intended to see out his contract. This is nonsense!

Penrith and Cleary both knew that when Ivan told the Tigers he would sign with Penrith from 2021 that he had placed us in an impossible position.

The Tigers would be forced to release him. He knew that. So, all his talk of his intentions is garbage. He is a liar. He has gamed us and he has shredded his reputation.

This is what irks me the most. Think most of us are pretty much over it(him) and now he wants to give his side of the story.
While I do not wish to a see a retaliatory article from Pascoe I wouldn't be opposed to read something in response from a player. But that's clearly cos I love the drama. IDK this just looks like a rather sad attempt to save face.

I have no further interest in him. No amount of ratinalisation on his part will wipe clean the whiff that eminates from him. Enjoy the love ins with Gus.
