What went on

[Punxsutawney Phil]

Have you EVER heard him take any responsibility for anything? Either here or at the Bulldogs?

Never. It is always someone else's fault (Frawley, recruiters) or there is an excuse (we have XXX games experience compared to Sydney's XXXX games, there is a gap in the 24-28 age bracket etc.). I have never heard him take any responsibility for the mess he has created.

The fact he thought we were locked and loaded last year and now offers up excuses for our plight IMO proves this.

He has made one hell of a mess and now someone else will have to try and clean it up.

Its all about Terry. And I for one am sick of the sight of him.

Pretty much spot on new comer.

Add Jade Rawlings to the grieving party and a couple of Admin staff from the club also.

Wallace is great mates with some in the media, particularly the one who broke the news in Melbourne and WA.

Maylin and Brad Hardie good mates

Also the club put forward that Jade be caretaker cocah, the players said no, I wonder why??

 

[Mr Magic]

Maybe we should get some ear muffs and really dark shades for Chimpa
protect him from the circus

That is the real concern Gold Coast looms especially with his old man.

So a couple of things from this:
Wright was originally going to sack Wallace? Where was CC in this?
Its been reported that Jade Rawlings was with Wallace on Monday night as well. Phil Maylin or Nathan brown were probably the leak.

The club needs to find the leak, and it doesn't matter who it is p!%# them off!!!

The pieces of the puzzle are starting to fit together for me.

- The Port loss is the final straw for Wallace. He unleases his frustrations on the players after the game as he feels their is nothing to lose. He now knows he is gone and starts thinking about securing his next role in the media.

- He knows the current situation is not helping his reputation and when the players come knocking he sees his opportunity for a quick solution.

- He goes to see Wright (bypassing CC who he never thought was senior enough to be his boss anyway) in attempt to secure terms of his release. Wallace wants a payout and Wright wants a resignation they obviously can't agree.

- In a bid to further his objective he gives the HearldScum the exclusive of his likely sacking to create goodwill in an attempt to secure a column their, hence the confusion on their part.

- When March and CC get involved and knock his plan on the head he goes into damage control and attempts to smooth things over with players and club and agrees to coach the year out.

- What we are left with is a situation which is untenable. My best guess is that if we lose this week they will get together next week and work out terms for his release. Which will be a reduced payout and an exit after Round 11. This way the Board and March can be seen to have stuck to their mid year review timing and Terry can join his new friends in the media.

I agree mate.

Look for the face saving departure post round 11.

Very Japanese Wallace san.

Shame he knows nothing of honour.
