+xThe biggest box he ticks IMO is the giving a team an identity thing. That Cronulla team he built became the team you would’ve thought was a natural evolution of a Dogs team into 21st century football. It’s what we should’ve evolved into, instead we became a square block trying to fit into a Des hole. Flanaghan football is Bulldog football of the 21st century. We’ll become ourselves again, which will be much easier than trying to become something we’re not. He fits, he’ll use what we are. Des and Baz tried to make us what they were. Agree with this.

+x+xOver the last week or so on the back of views from a variety of sources, some I rate some I don’t, not least of which is what I’ve heard from the man himself, I reckon Flanagan is the man. Had my doubts on a number of fronts, maybe still do, but positives outweigh the negatives and he’s simply the most outstanding candidate on the number of boxes he ticks, boxes we need ticked. I don’t worry about Flanno junior. One of two things will happen, actually the first thing WILL happen - Senior WILL get the best out of Junior no doubt. And from there he’ll either earn his place in the team or not. I have no worries about favouritism because Senior is too hard nosed for that, if Junior isn’t good enough Senior will tell him the awful truth and that’ll be that. So I’d make the decision soon and get him started. He’s got a history of starting mid season and it worked, worked all the way to a Premiership. The sooner he starts the sooner he begins. I too think, based on what I saw on the podcast snippets on NRL360, that he is very high on the list. Im still not sold on the Jnr thing. It's one extra experiment that we will have to live through and one I dont want to as I've made up up mind on Jnr. But Snr does tick alot of boxes and is ready to go. Im also kinda unwilling to give up on the season so far out (as much as my head tells me to) so if he was to start soon and manage to turn us around, we could still challenge for finals. (OK maybe not) It's hope, rather than logic, that keeps us going mate, and that's a good thing for the mind.

Flanagan must be our next coach. I just can’t see any better option. He did great with Avery ordinary team. He turned the Sharks into winners. The top four coaches Bennett, Bellamy, Hasler and Robinson have not done what Flanagan did. All have had strong rosters and have failed with weaker rosters. Flanagan just got the best out of has beens and never wases 😉

Do we know Potter doesn’t have designs on the FT gig???… it was obvious he enjoyed half week 1…
What if we really start to turn things around over the next 6-8 weeks and he’s really enjoying it???…
Pretty decent squad to break your way back into the full full time coaching gig next year…

At this stage he has no plans to coach here next year, and we have no plans for him to coach. A good sequence of results might change some minds, but first he needs to get them, which will not be easy. No point in speculating before those results land.

Those Fux hacks cut Flanno Jnr a lot of slack.
What are his key stats?
Tackles/Missed tackles.
Run metres.
Kick metres.
Repeat sets.
Try assists.
Line break assists.
Line breaks.
Tries.
Yet when club dropped him last time, we were the scrum of the earth.
And next time he is dropped, the hacks will go off again, inspite of the fact that we are giving him far more chances than he deserves.
If his old man taught him how to play footy, that doesn't say much about Flanno snr's coaching skills, those line break assist stats are not likely to improve.
Look at where our points are coming from.

Just because you have Fux doesn’t mean you need to watch NRLol369 to get value for money… in fact I’ll pay a extra $5 a month to see Rothfield, Kent, and Bonnets Hooper get sacked… I only pay to watch the sport… Replays of ‘are you being served’ are 1000 times more entertaining and informative… #boycottNRLol369

Look at where our points are coming from. What points? Well the few that we get come mostly from Burton, or players outside Burton. NRL stats have Flanno down for 3 try assists, but I can't remember him throwing a pass leading to a line break. It might be one rainbow pass and 2 tries off kicks. I can't remember any tries from anything Flanno has done in the last 3 games. If he is effective it is certainly low key. The job for the opposition defence at present is mark Burton and number up on that side. Roll a joint defending the right side, just to keep busy.

I reckon him coming out in the media to make it sound like he knows this is just an interim role bla blah blah is all just misdirection and to give him an out should we continue to play poorly. He will be seen as someone who just had to step in and see out the year. But I reckon if he was to turn the club around and chalk up a few wins, there's no reason to think he wouldn't put his hand up to continue on full time basis. It's win-win for him without the pressure.

According to the media hacks we might be going to swap Flanno jnr for Sullivan of the Dragons.
Flanagan snr is involved at the Dragons, if he is making this swap happen it vastly increases his chances of coaching the Dogs.
I say bring it on.

Why would they want a back up on Flanagan's money. Do they think Flanagan will improve their squad more than Sullivan? What does that say about Sullivan?

Unfortunately the Dragons are apparently not interested in the swap. Sullivan is a good player, sometimes things are too good to be true. Sullivan has a problem, stuck behind Hunt on a long term contract, I can see why he wants out, he isn't getting any younger.

He knows his position in Bulldogs reserves let alone first grade is not guaranteed, so he is targeting a reserve grade spot at the Dragons. Good for him

I suspect that we are trying to improve our halfback options for the rest of the season. Flanagan is probably getting the same message Naden got, essentially we are happy for you to leave. Sullivan has a long term contract with the Dragons likely on decent money, perhaps too much to pay a guy who occasionally fills in at 14.

Our long term vision is probably Hayward who is currently out injured and a bit too young to play NRL this year. Sullivan is to improve the team this year and so we don't need to rush Hayward, or have all our eggs in the one basket. Sullivan seems more likely to make it as an NRL half than Flanagan and probably Wakeham. It is slightly surprising Sullivan hasn't played more halfback in the NRL. Sullivan clearly wants a decent shot at half and I don't blame him. He might be good enough to make it. If we have a situation where Sullivan and Hayward are both good enough then that is a nice problem to have. The fact that Sullivan can also play 14 means we might be able to keep them both. But for the record Flanagan jnr isn't an NRL standard halfback. and I doubt that he ever will be.

+x+x+x+x+x+xFlanagan must be our next coach. I just can’t see any better option. He did great with Avery ordinary team. He turned the Sharks into winners. The top four coaches Bennett, Bellamy, Hasler and Robinson have not done what Flanagan did. All have had strong rosters and have failed with weaker rosters. Flanagan just got the best out of has beens and never wases 😉 Dude… the Sharks were well over the cap for a significant period… and on performance enhancing substances… Our club has enough trouble with the media without his baggage… and don’t think for a minute those hack grubs at Fux or the terrorcrap will cut us a break behind the first 6 rounds cos he’s currently matey with them.. they’ll turn on him quicker than Villi turned his back on the BDP… Plus his kid is here… that may well cause other internal issues… he’s already started dadsplaining why Kyle has progressed… i don’t have the answer but a coach that was a part of a cheating club and culture isn’t it… And I’d take all four coaches you mention well before FlannoSr despite your assertions they have not done what he has… cos you’re right about that… they either haven’t cheated or haven’t been caught… Not to mention broke the conditions of his NRLol suspension… and form the snippets I’ve heard on Radio is now using his current employers time to publicly and shamelessly apply for the job… I haven’t read through todays posts, but if you’re agreeing with anything Marki has said it is likely your wrong… He spelt "you're" incorrectly. Get him Steve! Better check that one Marki. To me, it's the correct spelling in the correct context. Back to school for you ODF! Why is that? In the sentence.. " but if you're agreeing with anything Marki said" you're is equivilent to 'you are' and that is absolutely correct

Check the spelling of equivalent. Nearly all my posts have, to say the least, have doubtful spelling or grammar but best to let it pass. Too late to educate me now.

The thing is Mdog, it is futile arguing English and grammar with anybody over 60, because we had that sh!t pumped into us at school.
