Should Hastings be given a go as a starting half in the NRL side?

Have a look at the reply of nrl360. It shows different camera angle and the point where Jake gets to Hastings first. It is obvious, that is why 360 put it on.
Jake got to Hastings first because he was the closest to him when he scored the try . The camera angle clearly shows that .

Correct. But he brushes Hastings and does not congratulate him, let alone look at him.

I think there is more to this mate i hope not but there could be . What i did find unusual was when the players went into the sheds at halftime for a roasting, Mathew wright put his head phones straight on . Is that showing no respect for the coach. ? Has Barrett lost the dressing room?.
Well , Trent's half time spray didn't change the way the boys played
Who knows ?

This story is such a black eye for our club, to have players fighting is so bloody pointless!!! Where in the hell is the leadership in our club? Why are the coaching staff not dealing with this crap? The last thing we need is dirty laundry like this, come on Manly, its time to act like a team and be professional!!!
I am sure they have given him plenty of chances to be professional and not fight with teammates. He clearly can't help himself so it's hit the road Jack.

I never saw any team harmony issues when Hastings came on off the bench and played well for our team .
Penrith had the luxury of depth in those positions to make change and we don't . One thing for sure is that we wont be flying like Penrith are without an affective 5/8
No?????

We lost most of those games no?

No matter how bad his attitude or behaviour is, to wake up and read that your team mates despise you to the point that they refuse to play alongside you has to be absolutely gut wrenching.

I really feel for the bloke, and hope he has a strong group of loving family and friends to support him through this. Whoever leaked this deserves an uppercut, should have been handled behind closed doors.
If he has a Personality Disorder as it would seem likely be the case, he will for the most part cope, by blaming everyone else. People with PD 's are notoriously hard to deal with. They usually do not have the insight to admit they need help nor will they accept it.

We did lose most games so what are you trying to say ?
Hastings dropped the ball and missed the tackles that led to tries ?
From what I saw when Hasting came on he added to the team .

If he does have PD then why would they let him play with Blacktown ?

The club probably feel they may as well get something out of him until they can offload him completely.
He may go ok at Blacktown for a while until he can be moved onto his next team.
PD's normally don't last too long in one job and it is the same with their relationships. They can be very charming and charismatic when you first meet them, but it normally doesn't take long for the cracks to start to emerge.

If the guy has PD he needs treatment . Our club has a duty of care
People with PD are usually their own worst enemy and won't admit they need help or accept it. It has been reported the club has offered him counselling.

I don't think any team will have him until he gets treatment and fixes himself up . I would not let a player that has issues play with Blacktown .

Hang on a second before this snowballs. One armchair psychologist in this forum suggested he has a pd based off scant evidence and no face to face contact. I think what is prob more likely is as Kent said on 360 today he has some pretty terrible people in his corner pumping his tyres up and telling him everyone else is the problem.

Also countless people live with pd problems and live normal functioning lives. It doesn’t make them a psycho. Seems like he has some anger issues.

One last thing. I find it really ironic people saying he needs a clip and to be pulled into line. Or that there’s no leadership etc etc. seems to me that these scuffles were prob to try to pull him into line. Even chez trying to minimize it seems a bit like a desire to keep it in house and do the right thing.

It strikes me that no matter what cherry does people in this forum pan him. If he clips him he’s causing problems. If he doesn’t clip him he doesn’t know how to lead. This forum is bipolar and the wind can cause a complete mood swing lol

That sounds like a breach of contact conditions .
