Please bring in Flanagan. Yes he has been a villain in the past but he knows a footballer, is a great man manager and can slide into the top job without the fuss the WTs' attracts.
You don't risk the health of our players to win football games.
That's your opinion but it is not shared by me nor others. If he does come you have a decision to make.
So you are happy to put our players health at risk to win footy games, good to know.
The NRL are satisfied he has been punished, served that punishment and is again available to participate. End of matter.
But as you said, you are happy to risk players health to win footy games.
Flanagan is available for consideration to be assistant or coach according to the NRL. His punishment has been served.
That wasn't what you said though. I stated that you don't put players health at risk to win footy games, you disagreed.
He is available for consideration, doesn't make it right to appoint him.
You can write to the NRL detailing your concerns. I have no evidence this will ever happen again. What I do know is that he has been punished and served that punishment. Do you expect him to be punished more than once for what he allegedly did?
Allegedly did? He was suspended for his behaviour, no need to use the word allegedly unless trying to downplay it. Why wouldn't he do it again? He has shown he believes he is above the consequences of his behaviour before, he has shown no evidence he wouldn't go straight back to this behaviour. Just because someone has been punished does not mean that there are no more consequences for their behaviour. We should not have him anywhere near the club.
If you have evidence that he has or is intending to do it again, report it to the NRL.
You have made your opinion known. I am willing to give him the chance.
If you want individuals to be punished twice for the same breach, join the ADF.
You have made your opinion known as well, why wouldn't I counter when you push for Flanno? I don't need evidence, he refused to follow consequences in the past, the risk just isn't worth it.
Coutts-Trotter was gaoled for his crime and will now be head of the NSW Premier's Dept. A great story of redemption.
I am quite happy to give Flanagan the chance. If he comes then as I have stated once or twice, you have a decision to make.
Why would I have a decision to make? I am not happy to give Flanagan responsibility over young people.
Well, if the club is happy to appoint him in some capacity and you feel strongly about it, clearly you have a decision to make.
What decision?
To not support the WTs if you feel so strongly about him if he is appointed by WTs in a capacity.
My support is stronger than any individual, is your's dependent on who we employ?
How many years have you supported WTs, WTs/Balmain or WTs/Wests?
40
Thanks. I been with Balmain and WTs through the good and bad times from a regional area where Balmain was always strongly supported. 52 years of support for Balmain, WTs and also the Maggies. My support of the club even while Maguire is still here is my answer to your earlier question.
