And there were some wanting Flanagan to replace BA.
I'm glad some of those on here that wanted flanno are not working in the front office
...but they are active on this site LOL
Yes I certainly remember that, can't quite remember who tho ?????
Flanno only had one winning strategy, and that was pumping his team full of peptides. When the mean old NRL took that away from him he realised that coaching was hard.
I'm hearing the senior players layed down
Gutho said if Flanno goes, he, Cook and Lawrie will go. That led to their decision to sack Flanagan hahahaha
lets see if thet do go
King Gutho lol full of shit
Sounds like the sort of allegiance Brad Arthur had with Gutherson and few other players while at Parramatta.
I think their issue is their spine, particularly the halves. Personally i think if you swap the halves in the parra and manly games i think the dragons win both those games.
