Agreed. Dig long enough and you can find proof that every one of us is a raving hypocrite.

You don't have to dig far with me, I do it on the same day, sometimes in the same thread. :hihi

thats unbelievable that he says he insists on having "complete' say on list management...

a bit of de jevu, both teams players wanted him out..

This guy wallarium did a number on us and should never be forgiven, hope u rot TW u are a fake and an imposter to the highest order...

Geez i wonder some times. Do you really think that anyone - Wallace, the club - entered into this without the best of intentions? I can assure you that Wallace would not have enjoyed the last 5 years much either. It didn't work out. It happens. Live and learn. At least as much the club's fault as his - they employed him after all.
It is time to move on i think.

i was doing some research on Wallace's past record at the bulldogs. Now i know he came across with big wraps but in looking back his record doesn't sit all that well.

He had quite a good team at the bulldogs and a ready made team at that. Junior players on his list were of the calabre of N. Brown, L.Gilbee, Giansericusa, S.West, R.Murphy, etc.. Now this got me thinking on a whether the tigers list was comparable and looking at it i would say YES.

After 3 seasons the bulldogs were on the slide. Here is how they went - 15th, 3rd, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 10th, 12th

So after getting a ready made team Wallace was unable to develop it moving forward.

After Peter Rhode's inglorious effort Rodney Eade took over and moulded this group into a very good side. This raised a couple of questions.

1/ Can Wallace develop young players?
2/ Is his game plan or lack thereof adequate?
3/ Was it the Alan Joyce recruiting that got Wallace up and going?
4/ By saying to the board that he will be following Geelong's example does this mean he needed to copy and didn't have his own ideas.
5/ Is RFC just very unlucky when it comes to coaches?

i'm currently a very confused and disillusioned supporter at the moment.

i posted this a while ago without reading that article but i must say it didn't take much research to find out this.

i'm very happy he, who i shall not speak, of is out of the club..

Phantom, after reading this I have only one question.

Did you find out who brodders brudda was?

No I haven't.

Spoken a few times with Paul Broderick over the years since.

Never ever thought to ask him if he even had a brother.

Ahh, my memories of July 2004, standing in 100 degree heat, walking the battlefield of Gettysburg in James County, southern Pennsylvania.

Ahh the memories!
